Advantages Of Nylon 12
Industrial Strength
Nylon 12 has a high impact resistance, which makes it a great material for industrial applications that require added strength and durability.
Production Volume
Fast print speeds, high-density nesting and no support structures allow for maximize use of build volume to print more parts with less lead time.
Excellent Quality & Detail
Create complex parts with superior strength and accuracy. Nylon 12 provides incredible resolution, edge definition and surface finish.
