FibreX™ 30% Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon Our 30% glass fiber reinforced Nylon 6 Copolymer (PA6) is nothing less than an industrial-grade beast! Formulated to be exceptionally stiff and strong - without being brittle. Polyamides (PA) are the work-horse of the plastics industry because of their excellent mechanical, chemical, and thermal resistance. This is the same type of PA6 used in automotive under-hood applications because it resists fuels, lubricants, heat, and mechanical loading up to 170°C. FibreX™ PA6-GF30 is suitable for use on practically any open-source 3D printer with a heated bed. Please note - 2kg reels are only available in Black. Glass fiber is very abrasive and we strongly recommend using our Hardened Steel Nozzles when printing with glass fiber reinforced materialsProduct Attributes Ideal for structural engineering-grade applications Exceptionally stiff and strong - without being brittle Excellent chemical resistance - suitable for automotive and industrial applications High thermal properties - up to 170°C in-use applications depending on the mechanical loads applied Improved dimensional stability - glass fibers reduce shrinkage, lift, and warp Very strong layer bonding Chemical Resistance Chart Nylon chemical resistance chart Recommended Print Conditions:Extruder: 260-280°CBed Temp: 60 - 75°CBed Prep: Nano Polymer AdhesiveHardened Nozzle: 0.4mm or larger. Glass fiber is very abrasive and will quickly wear out a brass nozzle. We strongly recommend using our Hardened Steel Nozzles Layer Height: Ideal layer height is 60% of nozzle diameter. We do not recommend printing layers below 0.25mm with glass fiber grades. Lower than 0.25mm may create too much back pressure in the hot end and result in poor feeding, jams, drive gear clicking, and eating a notch into the filament.Support: Aquasys 120 Drying Instructions: Please see the following instructions for when you want to dry out this filament, CLICK HERE
