Prusa’s castor oil-derived PA11 filament combines unusually strong interlayer adhesion with low friction, impact resistance, and the durability needed for demanding moving parts.
Moisture from the air can easily ruin your 3D printer filament, meaning it can also ruin your prints. Find out how to properly dry filament!
Ready to move on from PLA? Nylon is the go-to material for strong, flexible, and durable parts, but which filament is worth your cash.
For users seeking flame-retardant nylon without a closed printer ecosystem, 3DXTech is building a library of tested slicer profiles to simplify setup across more machines.

Despite being acquired twice in the past 14 months, the company is still innovating and releasing new products, specifically, four new cheerful colors of its signature Onyx GF, a chopped glass fiber-filled nylon exclusively for its FX-series industrial 3D printers. Designed for color-coded tooling, fixtures, and safety indicators, the material embeds color directly into the filament so there's no more painting or labeling. Onyx GF also comes in new white and grey. We're excited to see Markforged in the capable hands of Stratasys with that deal officially closing soon.
By reclaiming industrial waste into a high-performance rPA12 with 46 MPa tensile strength, this "loop-closing" filament aims to prove that sustainable manufacturing doesn't have to sacrifice engineering performance.
Hobbyists and pros alike might want to rethink their next functional print. Elegoo just launched rugged, fiber-reinforced filaments at a surprising price.
