MatterHackers Purple PRO Series ABS Filament - 1.75mm (1kg)

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.

My build recommends esun pla+, or esun abs, I am looking for maximum shock/impact resistance, with maximum layer adhesion, not concerned with cost of filament, in other words not looking for the bargain filament on this build. My question is the pro series better than esun filament?

What are the mixing proportions of the ABS?

All I can add is that I'm testing my luck with a CR6Max. Here's the trick to adhesion... ---- I maxed out the OEM settings at 260/90 and run my 1st layer SLOW. As in 10 slow. ---- Only using glue on a glass bed and after the 1st layer adheres she's running. Benchy came out 9.5/10 first attempt, first ABS print ever.

Is it food, microwave and dishwasher safe?

Why is this filament so difficult to print with? I'm running a heated enclosure @ 45C, printing at 235C, with a heated bed of 110C. Printing small 1-2 inch parts on a level/clean bed with proper first layer leveling and I'm getting absolutely awful warping that ruins the prints. So far I can't see anything PRO about this filament.

Hey! I just wanted to see if you had any pictures comparing this (MH Pro Series Purple) compared to the Build Series Purple. The Pro looks a bit more matte and lighter in hue than the Build--something I've been looking for!
