MatterHackers Blue NylonG Glass Fiber Filament - 1.75mm (0.5kg)
NylonG is a glass-fiber reinforced nylon for 3D printing, offering excellent impact-resistance, incredible tensile strength, and great inter-layer adhesion. It retains dimensional accuracy better than standard nylon and absorbs large amounts of kinetic energy, making it ideal for parts that need to withstand repeated shock. The filament creates clean, complex parts in various colors with no post-processing needed and pairs well with Ionic support materials for dual extrusion prints.
- Glass fiber-infused for extra strength and impact resistance
- Excellent at absorbing large amounts of kinetic energy
- Produces clean, complex parts with no post-processing needed

NylonG
Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon for the Toughest 3D Printed Parts
NylonG is a glass-fiber infused material that has excellent impact-resistant capabilities and incredible tensile strength.
Here are the key features of NylonG:
- Glass Fiber infused for extra strength
- Excellent impact-resistance
- Great inter-layer adhesion
- Incredible tensile strength
- Retains dimensional accuracy better than standard nylon
Great for Parts that Take a Beating
NylonG is excellent for parts that need to absorb large amounts of kinetic energy. Under repeated shock, glass-fiber reinforced NylonG 3D prints maintain their shape and structural integrity.
- Impact and shock resistant
- Absorbs large amounts of kinetic energy
- High tensile strength
Create Beautiful, Functional Parts
NylonG glass fiber-infused filament not only is a strong, functional materials, but it looks great right off your printer and is available in a wide variety of colors.
- No post-processing needed
- Produces clean, geometrically complex parts
- Pairs great with Ionic support materials for dual extrusion prints
Which nylon 3D printing filament is right for me?
| Filament | Benefit | Optimal Use |
|---|---|---|
| PRO Series Nylon | Strong, low friction | General Purpose 3D Printing |
| NylonG | Impact Resistance | Parts subjected to repeated shock |
| NylonX | Tensile Strength | Parts under constant stress |
| NylonK | Abrasion Resistance | Parts subjected to constant friction |
NylonG is great for functional parts, like this 3D printed extruder.

Questions
Is there a shelf life for this product?
Do you need a glass bed
Do you need a heat bed
Can this be used on a prusa mk3s smooth build plate? Always had lifting issue on the corners.
Keep getting samples of this from MatterHackers so decided to try one with MatterHackers Build PLA. It didn't work. Print lifted while printing and had to be cancelled, and the scrapped print popped easily off the warm bed. Didn't hold near as well as Elmer's glue stick.
Will this help if my prints won’t stick to the bed, or does this only help prints that stick too much? My prints won’t stick properly to the bed, and a few hours in sometimes they will pop off the bed, ruining the whole thing.
Will this work on my Ender 3 build plate or should I use a piece of glass over it?
Do it work best on a cold bed or a warm bed?
will this work on a pulse xe?
This really does work great with ABS, PETG, etc. but also read the fine print on the side that says "Use within 30 days of opening". That's also true. I did a run of ABS printing and it worked great for banging out a couple spools of ABS parts, but then suddenly it just stopped working AT ALL and I ended up tossing the last 1/5th of the bottle.
I'm from Malta and I have heard that it is from Malta if so is it better to buy it from somewhere else instead of the USA?
Will this work with bue painter's tape?
Does it work really well with abs? I spent $40 on 3dlac and abs still warps on the corners. The only think that really works well for me is abs juice. I just don’t like the shiny layer it leave on the bottom of my print.
Will this work with an SLA resin printer? If not, is there a similar product for that?
Will this work on the ultrabase print bed of anycubic I 3 mega?
does this work with NylonX
Will it work well on a PEI print bed?
Actually from Magigoo's website: "From our users we have learned that Magigoo is not only used as a glue, but also due to its easy release as a release agent on PEI sheets or other beds which over-adhere. For example PEI sheets when printing using TPUs or PET."
Magigoo will work on pretty much any common build plate!
It's designed for glass beds only. With PEI you shouldn't need additional adhesion methods. To strategize about ideal surfaces for a given filament, check out this article.
