Important Printing & Storage Guidelines
Hardened Nozzle Recommended: Nylon can cause accelerated wear on standard brass nozzles. A hardened steel or ruby nozzle is strongly recommended.
Moisture Management: Nylon is highly hygroscopic (absorbs moisture quickly). Keep the filament stored in a dry box or vacuum bag with desiccant, and dry prior to printing for optimal results.
Support Removal: If using PA6 as its own support structure, remove supports promptly before the material absorbs ambient moisture to prevent permanent bonding.
