Nylon GF is a rigid glass-filled nylon 12 material used for real-world testing and functional end-use parts. This material has excellent mechanical stiffness, superior demensional stability, and nice surface finish. Nylon GF can also perform at elevated temperature environments making it a good choice for some thermal testing applications.
Features
• Excellent mechanical stiffness
• Elevated temperature resistance• Dimensionally stable
• Easy-to-process
• Nice surface finish
Benefits
• Excels in load bearing applications at higher temperatures
• Prototypes and end-use parts without tooling
• Accurate and repeatable parts
• Machinable and paintable for demontration parts
• Improved isotropic shrinkage due to glass filler
Applications
• Housings and enclosuresConsumer sporting goods • Appropriate for low- to mid-volume rapid manufacturing
• Parts requiring machining orjoining with adhesives
• Complex production and prototype plastic parts
• Form, fit or functional prototypes
• Parts requiring stiffness • Thermally stressed parts
