Nylon FX256 is a high-tech material that retains its excellent functional properties under a wide range of temperatures. Perfect for the most resistant prints.
It exhibits very high interlayer adhesion while flexible in a thin layer. Its low friction coefficient and high-temperature resistance make it an excellent choice for printing functional and technical parts. It’s a durable material that resists against a wide range of chemicals, including car fluids.
