Nylon parts have a smooth white surface that is non-abrasive and easily painted. It’s best suited for non-marring applications that require repeated use and handling. Nylon can be printed on it’s own or reinforced with any of our continuous fibers.
Additive Technology: FFF
Nylon
A non-abrasive, engineering grade thermoplastic. Nylon is extremely versatile on it’s own or it can be strengthened with any of our continuous fiber reinforcements.

Advantages Of Nylon
Non-Abrasive Surface
Our Nylon material is resilient, with a non-abrasive smooth surface. It’s great for applications requiring fatigue and vibration resistance.
Industrial Durability
Nylon is both impact and chemical resistant, with the highest elongation at break. This makes it one of our most durable thermoplastic materials.
Fiber Reinforcement
We can increase the mechanical properties of Nylon parts by adding a continuous fiber reinforcement to strengthen specific infill areas.
