Filament Devil Design PA12 Natural 1.75mm 0.33 kg
The Devil Design PA12 filament is a versatile nylon material gaining popularity in the 3D printing world due to its exceptional properties. Nylon is easy to process, meaning PA12 prints can be further machined and polished, allowing for precise customization to meet specific requirements. One of the defining characteristics of this filament is its high hygroscopicity, meaning it absorbs moisture from the environment, so storing it in a dry place is recommended. PA12 is also highly impact-resistant, making it resilient to mechanical damage. Additionally, this filament offers strong resistance to greases, oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids, salt solutions, and solvents, making it ideal for industrial applications. PA12 can be used across a wide temperature range, which adds to its versatility. However, it is challenging to print with, so it is recommended for experienced 3D printer users who can adjust printing parameters to suit the material's specifics. Devil Design PA12 is the perfect choice for professional projects requiring both durability and precision.
Due to its temperature requirements, nylon PA12 necessitates a high-quality, all-metal hot end capable of withstanding temperatures above 250°C. Additionally, this material has a tendency to warp, making strong adhesion to the build platform essential for optimal results. Nylon PA12 performs well with proper printer preparation—it is recommended to use an enclosed chamber and adhesive solutions (as shown in the photo) to minimize material shrinkage.
Advantages:
- High mechanical strength – exceptional resistance to abrasion, impacts, and stress.
- Chemical resistance – withstands exposure to greases, oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids, salts, and solvents.
- Ease of post-processing – PA12 prints can be machined, sanded, and polished, allowing for precise detail adjustments.
- Wide operating temperature range – suitable for applications requiring stability under varied thermal conditions.
- High impact resistance – durable against cracking and mechanical damage, enhancing print longevity.
- Flexibility – despite its strength, PA12 nylon retains flexibility, making it suitable for moving parts.
- Resistance to moisture and water absorption – lower than other nylon filaments, making PA12 more stable.
- Ideal for industrial applications – performs well in prototypes and functional parts requiring durability.
