3D printing materials

Nylon 3D Printing Materials

3D printing with Nylon materials has become a modern substitute for the traditional manufacturing method of injection molding. Here at JawsTec, we offer 3 main categories of nylon materials for printing. Read more about them below.

Material Properties	SLS Nylon PA 2200 and PA12 materials are extremely resilient against friction and chemicals. They are great for mechanical or functional parts.
Surface Finishes for PA12	Dyed Polished Vapor Smoothed

Available materials

SLS Nylon PA 2200

SLS Nylon PA 2200 is an extremely versatile material. Parts made with PA 2200 are sturdy and durable, great for functional projects ranging from hinges to prosthetic appendages. It comes in white but can be dyed after printing to any other color. It is not as reusable a material as PA 11 and 12, but parts produced with PA 2200 are created energy-efficiently.

SLS TPU

TPU is flexible, durable, and highly resistant to abrasion, which sets it apart from rigid materials like PA 2200. It prints in a natural white or off-white color that can be dyed to nearly any other color. If you are looking for a material that offers rubber-like elasticity, impact absorption, and strong wear resistance.

Layer Height	80 µm
Material Properties	MJF Nylon materials are durable and high-density. They are ideal for watertight assemblies and complex designs, as well as prototypes of any kind. They have a natural grey color and a rough surface texture.
Surface Finishes for PA12	Dyed Polished Vapor Smoothed

Available materials

MJF Nylon PA 12

MJF Nylon PA 12 is one of our most popular materials. It is a slightly cheaper option compared to SLS materials. It has an excellent chemical resistance and is great for producing complex designs and geometries. One major advantage of PA 12 is the re-usablity of the excess powder after printing, making it an environmentally clean manufacturing technology.

MJF Nylon PA 11

MJF Nylon PA 11 is also produced from a renewable source, making the parts produced with PA 11 cleanly manufactured. This aspect of the material also ensures a lower cost for you, the customer. With these specifications, we can provide you the lowest cost possible and reduce the overall price. Order today and achieve your goals in a cost-effective manner.
