Key features
PA6 is a next-generation nylon with significantly increased mechanical strength compared to common engineering plastics. It excels with exceptional thermal properties - parts made from it withstand long-term operation at temperatures up to 120 °C (up to 20,000 hours) and short-term up to 160 °C (max. 200 hours) while maintaining their mechanical properties. The material is chemically resistant to oils, lubricants and a range of corrosive agents, and offers good electrical insulation properties. The filament features low linear shrinkage (0.3%) and reduced moisture absorption (less than 0.3% at 23 °C / 24 h), ensuring dimensional stability of prints. Thanks to stable melting in the heating circuit, no jamming or nozzle clogging occurs and printing runs smoothly.

Who is C-Tech Filament Premium Line PA6, 1.75 1kg suitable for
This filament is intended especially for professional users and advanced printer operators who need to produce mechanically stressed and thermally loaded parts. It is used for printing functional prototypes, gears, bearing bushings, structural parts, motor mounts, electrical installation components, spare parts for machines and tools that come into contact with oils and lubricants. Thanks to its low density, bulky prints are lighter than those made from other materials. The filament can be used on various types of 3D printers with a heated nozzle up to at least 270 °C. For other engineering materials, also check out PETG, ABS or carbon fiber composites.
Printing tips
- Always dry the filament thoroughly before printing (70 - 80 °C, 6 - 8 hours) - PA6 is hygroscopic and absorbed moisture significantly degrades print quality.
- During printing, we recommend using a dry box or filament dryer to prevent moisture reabsorption.
- Use an enclosed print chamber for stable ambient temperature and to minimize warping.
- Apply glue stick, PVA glue or a special PA adhesive to the print bed - PA6 adheres poorly to common surfaces.
- Recommended nozzle: hardened steel or brass, diameter 0.4 mm or larger.
- Turn off part cooling or keep it to a minimum (0 - 20%) for better interlayer adhesion.
- Set retraction carefully - PA6 is a flexible material and high retraction may cause extruder clicking.
- Finished parts can be further machined, drilled or bonded with two-component adhesives for nylons.
