    Uploaded by

    Felipe Teixeira
    Ultimaker Nylon is a durable filament known for its high strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. It has industrial-grade impact and abrasion resistance suitable for functional prototyping, tooling, and industrial modeling. Mechanical testing shows the material has a tensile modulus of around 2330 MPa and tensile strength at yield of 63.1 MPa. Thermal properties include a heat deflection temperature of 89.2°C and melting temperature of 188.4°C.

    Technical data sheet


    General overview
    Chemical composition See Ultimaker Nylon safety data sheet, section 3

    Description  sed by many manufacturers worldwide, Ultimaker Nylon is well


    U
    known for its impressive durability, high strength-to-weight ratio,
    flexibility, low friction, and corrosion resistance. Enjoy a seamless 3D
    printing experience due to the reduced speed of humidity absorption
    when compared to other Ultimaker Nylon filaments

    Key features I ndustrial-grade impact and abrasion resistance, durable, high


    strength-to-weight ratio, low friction coefficient, and good corrosion
    resistance to alkalis and organic chemicals.

    Applications Functional prototyping, tooling, and industrial modeling.

    Print orientation Tensile properties


    As the FFF process produces part in a layered Printed parts can yield before they break, where
    structure, mechanical properties of the part vary the material is deforming (necking) before it breaks
    depending on orientation of the part. In-plane there completely. When this is the case, both the yield
    are differences between walls (following the contours and break points will be reported. Typical materials
    of the part) and infill (layer of 45° lines). These differ- that yield before breaking are materials with high
    ences can be seen in the the data for XY (printed flat toughness like Tough PLA, Ultimaker Nylon and CPE+.
    on the build plate - mostly infill) and YZ (printed on its
    side - mostly walls). Additionally, the upright samples If the material simply breaks without yielding, only
    (Z direction) give information on the strength of the the break point will be reported. This is the case for
    interlayer adhesion of the material. Typically the brittle materials like PLA and PC Transparant, as well
    interlayer strength (Z) has the lowest strength in FFF. as elastomers (like TPU).

    Note: All samples are printed with 100% infill - blue


    lines in the ilustration indicate typical directionality of
    infill and walls in a printed part.

    Notes
    *3D Printing: all samples were printed using a new spool of material loaded in an Ultimaker S5 Pro bundle with
    engineering intent profiles using 0.15 mm layer height with AA0.4 printcore and 100% infill, using Ultimaker
    Cura 4.9. Samples were printed ‘one-at-a-time’. Printed samples were conditioned in room temperature for at
    least 24h before measuring.
