Overview
PA12 Black is SLS nylon dyed black and surface-polished as part of standard finishing, giving high cosmetic consistency — scratches and wear show far less than on white nylon.
Tensile strength and modulus are identical in XY and Z (46 MPa / 1900 MPa), an unusually isotropic profile, and the material offers great chemical resistance.
Key Properties
Typical datasheet values; printed parts are anisotropic and XY-direction values are shown unless noted.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Tensile strength | 46 MPa (XY 與 Z 相同) |
| Tensile modulus | 1900 ± 200 MPa |
| Elongation at break | 13 ± 4 % (XY) / 7 ± 4 % (Z) |
| Sintered density | 1.01 g/cm³ |
| HDT @ 0.46 MPa | 175 °C |
Typical Applications
- Housings, enclosures and fixtures
- Snap fits and hinges
- Prototypes through end-use production
Printing & Handling Notes
Dye penetrates the surface layer only; deep machining will expose white core material.
