This 30% glass fiber reinforced Nylon 6 Copolymer (PA6) is an industrial-grade beast! 3DXTech formulated to be very 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.

Ideal for structural engineering-grade applications. Exceptionally stiff and strong - without being brittle. Excellent chemical resistance - suitable for numerous automotive and industrial applications. High thermal properties - up to 170°C in-use applications depending on the mechanical loads applied. Improved dimensional stability - the glass fibers reduce shrinkage, lift, and warp significantly. It has very, very strong layer bonding.


WHAT KIND OF MACHINE DO YOU NEED TO PRINT THIS FILAMENT?

Extruder: 260-280°C
Bed Temp: 60 - 75°C - for adhesive, it works fantastic with our Nano Polymer Adhesive!
Chamber: Not required, but it always makes nylon print better.
Drying: yes, you MUST dry this filament. Like almost every thermoplastic, this does need to be dried thoroughly before processing, which is the fancy word for melting.

Drying: yes, you MUST dry this filament. Like almost every thermoplastic, this does need to be dried thoroughly before processing, which is the fancy word for melting.

In regards to drying, we’ve got an entire kit available on our site, including the vacuum chamber and ovens -- that’s basically all you need, so we put together the stuff WE use at OUR shop, so that you can do it just as easily as us. We also made METAL spools, so you don’t have to worry about melting or warping your spool when drying at high temps.

BASIC MATERIAL SPECS:
Like regular or Carbon Fiber PA6, it’s got a glass transition temp of 70c, but the HDT is much higher thanks to the fibers, at 186C! That’s REALLY HOT!

For Tensile strength, you get around 63MPa, and a tensile modulus of 4261MPa, but do keep in mind the way your part is designed and the orientation at which it’s printed will have a dramatic effect on strength. You’ll lose a certain percentage in the z-axis, depending how the part is printed.

All data sheets are available on our online store, at visionminer.com/data, so you can find the tensile modulus, elongation, impact strength, and more.

Because this uses glass fiber instead of carbon, it still carries all the insulative properties of Nylon for electrical applications! This particular blend has a surface resistance of over 10^9 Ohm/sq, on the ASTM D257 testing standard.
