Description
A flame retardant polyammide (V0 class according to UL94), it has been certified for several sectors such as railways sector (EN45545).
Polyamide 6 (PA6) is the most common extruded polyamide. It is known in industry for its good damping properties and impact resistance, as well as good toughness at low temperatures. It is ideal for bearings and gears, for example, as they would run quietly.
This material combines mechanical, thermal and chemical resistance.
PA6 pellets do not incorporate recycled or reclaimed material. Thanks to these qualities, PA6 pellets are perfect for 3D printing, achieving high print quality. There are several methods for using pellets in 3D printing:
PA6 pellets can be used in the manufacture of filament for FDM 3D printers.
It is possible to use a pellet extruder for 3D printing directly.
PA6 pellets have a high sensitivity to humidity and should be kept in dry conditions (relative humidity of 20% or less) at all times. For optimal results, it is recommended to read the product usage advice.
PA6 pellets are designed for best results in 3D printing and is an ideal material for use in the automotive industry or for functional prototyping.
