BASF Ultrafuse PA6 GF30 Black 1,75mm 750g

BASF Ultrafuse® PA6 GF30

First BASF filament development Based on Ultramid®.

Ultrafuse® PA6 GF30 is a unique compound developed specifically for FFF printing. Due to the 30% glass fiber content, parts are less prone to warpage. In addition, the excellent layer adhesion and compatibility with the water-soluble carrier Ultrafuse® BVOH make this material the perfect solution for developing industrial applications on an FFF printer. With its high wear and chemical resistance, stiffness and strength, Ultrafuse® PA6 GF30 is suitable for a wide range of automotive, electronics and transportation applications.
