Description
| Our PA12+GF30
glass fiber reinforced Nylon 12 (PA12) is our next generation of high
performance polyamide printing! PA12 offers exceptional chemical, mechanical,
thermal properties – making it an ideal material for demanding
engineering-grade applications. PA12 absorbs significantly less moisture than
PA6 (5X less moisture!). Lower moisture absorption results in better
retention of mechanical properties after exposure to humidity and better
dimensional stability. Polyamides (PA) are the work horse of the plastics
industry the world over thanks to their excellent mechanical, chemical, and
thermal resistance. The addition of glass fiber reinforcement takes it to the
next level and offers excellent stiffness, strength, and dimensional
stability. |
Benefits of FibreX Nylon 12+GF30
- High thermal properties, with a CUT of 120C and HDT of 150C
- Excellent strength and stiffness over a wide temperature range, up to 150C
- Very low moisture absorption yielding improved retention of mechanical properties even when exposed to humid environments
- Superior chemical resistances, especially when compared to PA6 nylons
- Low shrinkage and warping for high dimensional stability and reproducible part-to-part measurements

Material DETAILS
Glass Fiber Reinforced Filament
What Is It?
DescriptionFibers made of glass reinforced into the polymer during manufacturing and aligned along the axis of filament.
This, along with their physical makeup, give this material enormous strength and mechanical properties.
What Does It Do?
Glass fiber reinforcement gives material a lot of desirable properties:
High strength
High stiffness
High chemical resistance
Low thermal expansion
How Does It Work?
Reinforcing plastic with glass fibers produces a 3D printing filament which exhibits the best properties of both fiberglass and the plastic of choice.
What Is It Good For?
Ideal for any applications which require strength and rigidity.
For these reasons, glass fiber reinforced filament is very popular in automotive, mechanical, civil engineering, and research industries.
