Nylon Kevlar. Sounds rather superhero-ish. It is actually just a high-performance thermoplastic material that is incredibly durable and heat resistant. It is also known for its remarkable ability to create strong, impact-resistant printed parts ideal for industrial applications. Explore our post on the unique properties of nylon Kevlar 3D printer filament and why it might be the perfect choice for your project.
Strength and durability are two benefits of Nylon Kevlar 3D printer filament. With a tensile strength of 5070 psi, it matches that of ordinary Nylon, but it is 27% more abrasion resistant than our Phoenix Copolymer Nylon. Such durability makes it an ideal candidate for industrial applications.
Nylon Kevlar filament stands out more for its heat resistance. With a Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) of 133 degrees Celsius, it surpasses Phoenix Nylon by more than 10 degrees Celsius and PETG by a whopping 68 degrees Celsius! This feature makes Nylon Kevlar an excellent choice for certain aerospace and automotive industries.
Nylon Kevlar filament, being a type of nylon, offers excellent impact resistance. At 119 J/m², it is at the lower end of the scale for nylons, but roughly six times higher than that for PETG. This property makes Nylon Kevlar ideal for manufacturing objects subjected to high-impact loads, such as helmets, protective gear, and high-performance parts in the aerospace industry.
Nylon Kevlar filament can resist many types of solvents, acids, and alkalis, making it a great material option for engineering plastic parts used in chemical processing applications.
Nylon Kevlar filament is also an excellent material for machining because of its high strength and toughness. It is easy to grind, cut, and saw, making it ideal for machining parts that may need post-processing.
With the outstanding properties of nylon Kevlar 3D printer filament, your heavy-duty industrial application tasks are easier to achieve.
