Material & Compatibility Information

PA6 Low Warp GF30 is based on thermally stabilized Nylon 6 and reinforced with 30% glass fiber. This combination delivers exceptional stiffness and thermal performance while improving print stability compared to traditional nylon materials.

Recommended printing parameters:

• Nozzle temperature: 250–280°C
• Bed temperature: 70–100°C
• Cooling fan: 0–30%
• Print speed: 30–150 mm/s
• Enclosed printer recommended
• Filament drying recommended before printing
• Hardened steel or ruby nozzle required due to abrasive glass fibers

Like most nylon-based materials, PA6 Low Warp GF30 can absorb moisture from the environment. Proper filament storage and drying help ensure optimal print quality, layer adhesion, and mechanical performance.

Compatible with most professional and advanced desktop FDM/FFF 3D printers capable of reaching nylon printing temperatures and supporting 1.75mm filament.
