Why should you choose Nylon 12CF for your project?

Nylon 12CF offers exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to wear and abrasion, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications. Its carbon fiber reinforcement enhances stiffness and dimensional stability, ensuring reliable performance in high-stress environments. Additionally, Nylon 12CF’s excellent chemical resistance and low moisture absorption contribute to the longevity and reliability of your final product.

Finishes for fused filament fabrication printed Nylon 12CF.

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is a popular additive manufacturing process that can produce high-quality parts with various finishing and post-processing options. Standard post-processing techniques for FFF parts include sanding, polishing, and chemical smoothing to improve surface finish and reduce layer visibility. Additional painting, plating, and assembly options enhance the final product. Prototek’s experienced team can guide you through the best post-processing methods to meet your project requirements.
