Jabil - PA 4500 - Blue
Description
PA 4500 Filament is a low warp, neat nylon copolymer that has good lay flat/low warp properties, excellent appearance, strength in both XY and XZ directions, toughness, and can be printed at lower temps (240-260° C). Along with better printability, PA 4500 Filament also delivers better appearance, 100% elongation at break and better overall strength compared to other commercial PA’s and products like PETg and PLA.
Applications for this material include component production of less than 20,000 per year with complex geometries that require good wear properties and appearance but also strength and durability, such as slides, screen printing pallets, automation sleds, adaptors for fluid and materials handling, end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), masking covers, die cast models and patterns, clips, covers, housings, and gears.
Applications
