Nylon 3D printing applications

Designed to resist humidity

Nylon for S series is a 3D printing material that has been engineered to resist ambient humidity better than other nylon filaments on the market.

Exceptionally durable

Strong and durable, it is an ideal filament choice based on PA6/66 for manufacturing spare or replacement parts that must withstand heavy use.

Versatility meets reliability

When 3D printing on an S series machine, our nylon filament can solve multiple mechanical requirements for engineers, designers, and manufacturers.
