How tough is your nylon?
Available in Natural and Black, DuraForm PAx is a nylon copolymer that offers properties similar to injection molded plastics and features high impact resistance with high elongation at break in any direction, including Z. Engineered for easy processing and high recyclability, DuraForm PAx is ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts with good mechanical properties and long-term stability.
The low printing temperatures of DuraForm PAx contribute to high throughput when using this material, and its designation as a clean running material means low operator maintenance. With impressive long-term stability of over five years indoor, DuraForm PAx is among the top performing SLS materials for long-term use.
