FDM / MATERIAL PROFILE

PA-GF

PA-GF combines polyamide with glass fibres, offering an attractive material base for strong, individually shaped functional parts.

Base plastic: polyamide

Illustrative PA-GF component
YOUR POSSIBILITIES

Typical applications

Rigid housings, mounting brackets, fixtures and parts with large support surfaces.

YOUR BENEFITS

Why PA-GF?

The glass fibre filling increases stiffness and supports dimensionally stable designs for everyday technical use.

Performance profile

Heat deflection temperature (HDT)
up to 130 °C
Elongation at break
up to 2 %
Tensile modulus
up to 4,621 MPa
Density
1.3 g/cm³

Ideas for your application

Mechanical engineering, workshop equipment and device development, for example housing supports and mounting elements.

Surface and appearance

A matt to finely textured technical surface with a glass fibre structure.

Designing your part to fit

Generous radii and reinforced screw areas make good use of the material. Align print orientation with the main load.

Finishing and post-processing

Mating surfaces and holes can be machined. For close tolerances, specify the moisture condition before final inspection.
