Tough, Durable Parts
Nylon 12 Tough Powder offers the best-in-class refresh rate among Nylon powders, high ductility, and great dimensional accuracy across the build chamber. Print more durable parts for prototyping and small batch production that have reduced warpage without sacrificing strength.
Affordable Printing
Nylon 12 Tough Powder has a best-in-class refresh rate of just 20%. Get the most out of your material by printing with up to 80% recycled powder.
High Ductility
Nylon 12 Tough Powder has 64% better elongation at break than standard Nylon 12 for parts that are more flexible and less prone to breaking under stress
Dimensional Accuracy
Nylon 12 Tough allows production of longer parts with reduced warpage
Nylon 12 Tough Powder is ideal for:
- Compliant Mechanisms
- Long Parts Susceptible to Warping
- Reliable & Accurate Prototypes
- Strong & ductile parts
Mechanical Properties
- Ultimate Tensile Strength: 42 MPa
- Flexural Strength: 42 MPa
- Tensile modulus: 1.45 GPa
- Refresh Rate: 20%
Printing Considerations
Nylon 12 Tough Powder should not be printed with virgin powder. Learn more about Powder Aging.
Nylon 12 Tough Powder requires printing on a Fuse 1+ 30W.
Everything you need to produce great prints: Form 4L plus the Form Cure L and the Form Wash L (2nd Gen)
Form 4L
Form 4L is a blazing-fast large-format masked SLA 3D printer that combines an industry-leading materials library with a reliable, accurate print engine. Turn your biggest ideas into reality faster than ever with easy workflows, leading reliability, and stunning part quality using the Form 4L ecosystem.
Form 4L’s speed is driven by Formlabs’ new Low Force Display™ Print Engine, a powerful combination of ultra-high power LEDs, collimating lenses, optical filters, and a robust liquid crystal display. Together they cure each layer of resin rapidly — regardless of part size or quantity. With tight tolerances, parts printed in every resin on Form 4L will match your design parameters, every time.
