3DXTECH™ WearX Wear Resistant Nylon 0.5kg 1.75mm Filament Australia

3DXTECH™ WearX™ Wear Resistant Nylon Filament is an advanced material specifically engineered for high-performance applications requiring enhanced wear resistance. Modified with specialized additives, WearX™ offers superior durability and wear resistance compared to standard PA6, making it an ideal solution for tribological applications and parts exposed to constant friction and mechanical stress. Designed to handle demanding industrial and engineering tasks, this filament maintains excellent dimensional stability and surface integrity, ensuring long-lasting performance even under challenging conditions.

Why Choose WearX™ Wear Resistant Nylon?

WearX™ Wear Resistant Nylon is the solution for applications that require exceptional wear resistance without compromising strength or printability. Key benefits include:

Superior Wear Resistance: 3X improved wear resistance compared to unfilled PA6, perfect for sliding and rotational applications.
High Strength: Offers impressive tensile strength (62 MPa) while maintaining moderate impact and elongation properties.
Thermal Stability: Works well in environments with temperatures up to 120°C, providing consistent performance.
Chemical Resistance: Offers better resistance against chemicals compared to many other 3D printing filaments, ideal for harsh environments.
Matte Finish: Provides a professional matte surface finish for functional parts directly off the printer.

Key Features and Benefits:

Enhanced Durability: Perfect for parts subject to frequent wear, such as gears, bushings, and bearings.
Improved Dimensional Stability: Ensures that your printed parts retain their shape and accuracy, even after extended use.
Ideal for Dry Conditions: Formulated to excel in dry wear conditions, with the option to enhance performance through external lubricants.
Easy Printing: Despite its durability, WearX™ is easy to print and compatible with standard 3D printing hardware.

Recommended Print Conditions:

Extruder Temperature: 240-260°C
Bed Temperature: 70-90°C
Bed Preparation: Use PEI sheets, glue stick, or painter’s tape for adhesion
Enclosure Temperature: Recommended for best results, especially in larger prints
Print Speed: 30-60 mm/s for a 0.2mm layer height, adjustable based on part complexity
Nozzle Recommendation: Hardened steel or abrasion-resistant nozzles are recommended due to the abrasive nature of the material.

Applications:

WearX™ Wear Resistant Nylon is perfect for a range of applications where wear resistance is critical:

Tribological Parts: Ideal for gears, bearings, bushings, and other components subject to friction and mechanical wear.
Industrial Equipment: Durable components for machinery and custom tooling that experience high stress.
Automotive Parts: Suitable for high-performance automotive components requiring enhanced durability.
Prototyping: Create functional prototypes for high-load, wear-resistant applications.
