Printing Tips

This material has a requirement that you print with an all metal hotend that can reach 250˚C or higher as well as the need for a hardened nozzle.

Do not set your build plate above 50˚C and keep any chamber doors open. If you let the build plate or ambient air get above 50˚C, you run the risk of warping or ugly prints.
Use a glue stick or Magigoo PA if experiencing any issues with bed adhesion.
PA is very hygroscopic and therefore should only be printed while kept in a heated filament dryer the entire time you print.
If you hear "popping" or "cracking" noises, then the filament needs to be dried.
This can be annealed after printing at 100˚C for 10 hours.
After annealing - the part will be dried out and therefore need to be moisture conditioned.
Moisture conditioning will happen even if you do nothing as the material absorbs moisture from the air. To speed up moisture conditioning, keep in a humid environment for 48 hours.

FAQ

What is Fiberon™ PA612-ESD?

Fiberon™ PA612-ESD is an advanced ESD-safe nylon filament engineered for demanding applications requiring high mechanical strength, heat resistance, and reliable static dissipation. It is reinforced with 10% carbon fiber and designed for industrial environments.

What makes this different from PETG-ESD?

Compared to PETG-ESD, PA612-ESD offers: • 2× higher heat resistance (up to ~150°C HDT) • Significantly greater mechanical strength and rigidity • Better wear resistance in cleanroom and friction-heavy applications • Lower moisture absorption for more stable long-term performance

What are the ideal use cases for PA612-ESD?

This filament is ideal for: • PCB storage boxes • ESD-safe shelves and racks • High-temperature electronic housings • Structural components for cleanrooms • Industrial jigs and fixtures

Is PA612-ESD moisture sensitive?

Yes. Like most nylons, PA612-ESD is hygroscopic and should be kept dry during storage and printing. Use a dry box or dry it before use. Wet filament will impact surface quality and dimensional accuracy.

Is it AMS compatible?

Yes. PA612-ESD is available in a 1kg format suitable for AMS systems. It is also offered in 500g and 3kg spools depending on your use case. The 3kg spool will not fit in popular multi-material systems.

What kind of ESD protection does it offer?

Surface resistivity ranges from 10⁴ to 10⁷ Ω/sq depending on temperature and print orientation, ensuring safe static dissipation for sensitive electronics.

Can I use this filament for high-speed printing?

Yes. PA612-ESD supports up to 300mm/s print speeds when properly dried and printed with compatible hardware like the Bambu X1C.

Is this filament flame retardant?

No. PA612-ESD is not rated as UL94 V0 flame retardant. If flame resistance is required, consider PPS-ESD or other FR-certified materials.
