Heat-resistant 30% glass fiber reinforced copolyamide Spectrum PA6 Low Warp GF30 is another product from our range of composite materials based on technical nylon 6. This time, the filler consists of glass fibers, which have proven to be very successful in modifying plastic properties. The use of this type of filler typically serves to enhance mechanical properties in terms of tensile and compressive strength. Spectrum PA6 Low Warp GF30 is a filament for users who place the highest value on mechanical performance, high hardness, and heat resistance in their models. Due to the high glass fiber content, it is a filament with very low shrinkage during processing. Interestingly, the heat resistance of the Spectrum PA6 Low Warp GF30 filament, with a HDT value of 180 °C, is no worse than that of the carbon fiber-filled version, making it one of the highest quality specialty materials for desktop 3D printers.
