Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black)
Nylon 12 Glass Filled (Black) has a black surface that is slightly grainy and porous. Nylon glass filling is more durable and resistant than nylon PA12. It gives you great freedom in design - both complex and enclosed volumes. This material is ideal for technical components requiring resistance and load. The surface accuracy is not as good as polyamide 12, but it meets the needs of technical parts.

Dyeing
Color result
Black dye finish
Best for
Adding a uniform black finish to Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) parts where functional prototype testing requires consistent color.
Note
Confirm dye penetration, color consistency, and dimensional change on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) before production.
Painting
Finish options
Glossy and matte paint finishes available
Best for
Adding custom color and a protective paint layer to Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) parts for functional prototype testing.
Note
Validate paint adhesion, masking boundaries, and coating coverage on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) before production, especially around interfaces, edges, and fine details.
Vapor Smoothing
Surface result
Chemically smoothed surfaces with reduced layer lines
Best for
Reducing visible layer lines on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) parts used for functional prototype testing and appearance-critical prototypes.
Note
Confirm material compatibility, feature retention, and dimensional impact on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) before vapor smoothing.
Sand Blasting
Surface result
Uniform matte texture
Best for
Creating a uniform matte texture on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black) parts used for functional prototype testing and display or functional prototypes.
Note
Confirm masking and feature retention on Nylon 12 Glass-filled (Black); abrasive blasting can change texture and soften fine details.
