Description
Nylon GFX™ Glass Filled Nylon Filament - 500g
Nylon GFX is a strong glass filled nylon filament that produce a more rigid print than nylon alone. Since glass filled filament tends to have less build up inside the nozzle than carbon fiber it is less likely to clog your extruder over time. This would be a great choice for printing the Bondtech DualDrive extruder upgrade for the MakerGear M3 3D printer.
Manufactured in the USA, PBX Filaments™ produces industrial quality filaments of extremely consistent quality and diameter.
Diameter: 1.75mm +/- 0.005mm
Weight: 500g
Color: Gray
Print Settings:
As with all nylon filaments, it is recommended to dry your filament for at least 3 hours at 70c before printing.
Nozzle Temp: 240-265c (255c is a good starting point)
Bed Temp: 40-70c (50c is a good starting point)
Bed Adhesion: Glass or Buildtak with a coat of PVA or PVP
Print Speed: 30-140 (60mm/s is a good starting point)
Nozzle: .40mm or larger. Use a hardened wear resistant nozzle
Layer Height: 0.20 mm or higher, depending on nozzle size
Cooling Fan: as needed - We usually print with our cooling fan set to 0 for the print and 100% for bridging.
