①Background
When it comes to 3D printing materials, Nylon is absolute one of the most popular materials for professional users. Nylon has a wide range of applications thanks to its unique properties and its low coefficient of friction with a high melting point makes it especially resistant to abrasion and enables it to be used in printing for parts such as functional interlocking gears.
②Main Ingredients
Polymides
③Features
- Excellent strength and toughness: a great choice for professional users.
- Low coefficient of friction and abrasion resistant:suitable for applications with moving parts that would wear on each other.
- Possessing high tensile strengthand elasticity: allows to produce both tough and flexible objects with a good silky finish.
- Can easily be dyed for different color results.
- High Dimensional Accuracy: 1.75mm, tolerance +/-0.03mm.

High Quality
Polyamide 6 is a thermoplastic with excellent strength, chemical resistance, heat resistance, impact resistance, and low warpage. Its blend of flexibility and impact resistance makes it suitable for functional parts, gears, bearings, tool handles, mechanical components, and prototypes.
Stable Printing Environment
PA6 filament requires maintaining a high temperature and low humidity during printing. Using a closed printer for printing can maintain a relatively stable printing environment.
Storage and Drying are Crucial
As PA6 filament is highly sensitive to humidity. Filament comes in vacuum sealed packaging. To achieve optimal printing performance, we recommend thorough drying before use and after storage. Printing with a filament drying box ensures a high success rate.
Recommended Print Settings
Nozzle Temperature: 250°C-280°C. Bed Temperature: 100°C-120°C. Print Speed: 30-50 mm/s. Filament Dimensional Accuracy: +/- 0.03 mm. Note: Using a glue stick can improve bed adhesion.
FAQs
Why is Nylon a popular choice for professional 3D printing?
Nylon offers excellent strength, toughness, and a low coefficient of friction. Its high melting point makes it abrasion - resistant, perfect for printing functional parts like gears.
What are the recommended printing conditions for Nylon & Nylon - CF Filament?
The nozzle temperature should be 250℃ - 280℃, bed temperature 100℃ - 120℃, and print speed 30 - 50 mm/s. Using a closed printer and a glue stick for better bed adhesion is advisable.
How should I store this filament?
Since it's highly sensitive to humidity, store the filament in its vacuum - sealed packaging. Dry it thoroughly before use and after storage, preferably in a filament drying box.
Can I change the color of the printed Nylon objects?
Yes, Nylon filament can be easily dyed, allowing you to achieve different color results for your 3D - printed objects.
