Reinforced Nylon for Additive Manufacturing
Nylon reinforced Carbon Fiber, Kevlar, or Fiberglass is a high strength composite 3D printed material that is ideal for prototypes, functional parts, and replacement parts. The high strength to weight ratio rivals most metals and is 24 times stronger than ABS plastic.
Mechanical and Thermal Properties of 3D printed Reinforced Nylon
Also known as stainless steel type 1.4305, Grade 303 stainless steel is the most readily machineable of all the austenitic grades of stainless steel. The machineable nature of grade 303 is due to the presence of Sulphur in the steel composition. Whilst the Sulphur improves machining, it also causes a decrease in the corrosion resistance and a slight lowering of the toughness than 304. Grade 303 is typically used for parts that require heavy machining such as nuts and bolts, screws, gears, aircraft fittings, bushings and shafts.

Stainless Steel 304 for Additive Manufacturing
Grade 304 is the standard “18/8” austenitic stainless; it is the most versatile and most widely used stainless steel, available in the widest range of products, forms and finishes. It has excellent forming and welding characteristics. Grade 304L, the low carbon version of 304, does not require post-weld annealing and so is extensively used in heavy gauge components (about 5mm and over). Grade 304H with its higher carbon content finds application at elevated temperatures. The austenitic structure also gives these grades excellent toughness, even down to cryogenic temperatures. Grade 304 can be severely deep drawn without intermediate annealing, which has made this grade dominant in the manufacture of drawn stainless parts such as sinks, hollow-ware and saucepans. For severe applications it is common to use special “304DDQ” (Deep Drawing Quality) variants.
