PA12 Mineral-Filled (PA620-MF)
PA12 Mineral-Filled (PA620-MF) is a nylon material available for SLS 3D Printing.
What is PA12 Mineral-Filled?
This 25% mineral-filled nylon offers the highest stiffness among Protolabs’ selective laser sintering materials. It’s an excellent choice when stiffness and high temperature resistance are the most important requirements.
Applications
The material’s stiffness and temperature resistance makes it suited for components like armatures and mounting plates.
Tolerances
For well-designed parts, tolerances of ±0.010 in. plus ±0.0015 in./in. for each additional inch can typically be achieved.
Note that tolerances may change depending on part geometry.
Key Product Benefits
- Excellent strength to weight performance
- High temperature resistance
- Parts can be oriented to achieve maximum strength in X-build direction
