3D-POWDER SLS NYLON11 15-85, fine & narrow particle size distribution polyamide 11 (Nylon 11) powder for high resolution SLS printing

3D-POWDER SLS NYLON11 15-85 is a specifically designed fine and narrow particle size distribution polyamide 11 (Nylon 11) powder for SLS printing of high accuracy and resolution nylon printed parts.

This white thermoplastic SLS powder is designed for direct SLS printing of high quality Nylon 11 parts, with very high toughness and mechanical strength.

Designed for selective laser sintering of polymer powder parts requiring high accuracy, high resolution, toughness and mechanical strength. Also suitable as an additive for Cold Metal Fusion, Cold Ceramic Fusion, Cold Polymer Fusion and Cold Exotic Powder Materials Fusion workflows.
