Description

Applications

High Reusability PA 12 FR is a flame-retardant nylon material designed for demanding applications that require durability, thermal resistance, and compliance with flame safety standards. It offers strong mechanical performance, chemical resistance, and the ability to reuse powder efficiently, making it ideal for both functional parts and cost-effective production. JawsTec can produce High Reusability PA 12 FR components for prototyping, small batches, or full-scale manufacturing.

Example applications: Electrical enclosures, housings, connectors, cable management components, brackets, consumer electronics housings, automotive components, and non-implantable medical device housings.

Strengths
  • Flame-retardant for safety-critical applications
  • Strong, durable nylon with good chemical resistance
  • High powder reusability reduces material waste and cost
Weaknesses
  • Higher cost than standard nylon materials
  • Surface finish is rougher than injection molded parts
