Why Choose Formlabs Nylon 11 Powder?
Nitrogen Atmosphere Recommended: Nylon 11 Powder is recommended to print in nitrogen environment. Printing in air is possible, but will compromise material properties and lead to powder degradation at a faster rate.
Produce durable, ductile, and impact-resistant parts with Nylon 11 Powder, a high-performance bio-based SLS material engineered for functional prototyping and small-batch end-use parts that require flexibility, strength, and reliability.
Engineering-Grade Ductility
Nylon 11 Powder delivers excellent toughness and elongation, enabling parts that bend, absorb impact, and spring back without cracking — ideal for components subjected to repeated mechanical stress.
Strong and Resilient
Create robust parts with balanced mechanical properties, including high tensile strength and flexural strength, suitable for functional prototypes and end-use components in demanding applications.
Environmental Stability
Parts printed with Nylon 11 Powder have low moisture absorption and strong resistance to heat, light, and a variety of chemicals, helping maintain performance in challenging environments.
SLS Workflow Efficiency
Compatible with Formlabs Fuse 1 and Fuse 1+ SLS printers, Nylon 11 Powder supports efficient in-house production with economical powder refresh rates and reliable part quality across complex geometries.
Applications
Ideal for parts that require resilience, impact resistance, and reliable functional performance.
Consider Nylon 11 Powder for:
Impact-resistant prototypes and functional parts
Clips, snaps, and flexible mechanical features
Thin-walled ducts and enclosures
Orthotics, prosthetics, and wearable components*
End-use parts requiring toughness and ductility
Material properties may vary depending on part design, print settings, and post-processing. Users are responsible for validating performance for their specific application.
