Superior Mechanical Strength and Dimensional Stability

The glass fiber formulation ensures an optimal combination of stiffness and ductility, reducing the brittleness typical of some composites and minimizing warping and dimensional variation. These properties make the material ideal for load-bearing parts, industrial tooling, and components requiring precise tolerances, placing it among the most reliable technical filaments for engineering-grade 3D printing.

Chemical Resistance: Perfect for Oil and Lubricant Environments

The technical filament Obsidian GF PA6+GF offers high resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons, oils, and lubricants, making it the recommended choice for industries such as automotive, machinery manufacturing, and industrial maintenance, where parts are exposed to chemicals or lubricants. Its chemical performance reinforces the material's suitability for real-world applications and harsh environments.

Vibrant Colors and Professional Finish

The range of vivid colors allows the production of parts with a technical, professional look without complex post-processing; this opens possibilities for functional prototypes and final parts where aesthetic appeal and engineering performance must coexist. The availability of colors and surface quality enhance the perception of the component and facilitate its integration into products and technical presentations.

Cost-Effective Alternative Compatible with Industrial Printers

Obsidian GF PA6+GF serves as a cost-optimized alternative to high-end technical materials that are usually tied to specific printer brands. This filament delivers real savings without compromising mechanical properties, dimensional stability, or surface quality. Its formulation is developed to function as a direct replacement for exclusive composites from high-end printer manufacturers, allowing the use of an engineering-grade material with professional performance at a significantly lower cost and without changing print settings.

Markforged Compatibility

The Obsidian GF PA6+GF filament is compatible with Markforged FX20, X7, X5, X3, Mark Two, Onyx Pro, and Onyx One, ensuring direct integration with leading additive manufacturing equipment. This compatibility enables full utilization of professional printing platforms to produce technical parts with superior performance, facilitating its use in advanced production fleets and industrial processes already using Markforged printers.

Quality Control and Manufacturing Consistency

Obsidian PA6+GF from 3DXTech is produced in high-precision industrial facilities in the United States, where extrusion processes are strictly controlled to ensure a consistent diameter, uniform glass fiber distribution, and optimal thermal stability throughout the process. This advanced production guarantees consistent results, repeatable prints, and a professional standard ideal for continuous production environments. Thanks to this manufacturing quality, engineering projects can be scaled with Obsidian PA6+GF without performance loss or batch-to-batch variation.

Why Choose Reinforced PA6+GF Filament

In summary, choosing PA6+GF filament reinforced with glass fiber addresses the need to produce real parts with high stiffness, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability, while offering a competitive alternative to higher-cost consumables. For industrial applications, functional prototyping, and tooling production, this type of filament represents an unbeatable performance-to-cost solution with compatibility for professional 3D printers.

For best results with Obsidian GF PA6+GF, it is recommended to set the extruder to 365–390 °C. It is important to use a hardened steel nozzle with a minimum diameter of 0.4 mm and a layer height of 0.10 mm or higher.

The print bed should be maintained between 265–285 °C, and a heated chamber is recommended to improve adhesion and minimize warping.

Before printing, it is advised to dry the filament at 65 °C for 4 hours, or at 90 °C for 4 hours for deeper drying. Storing the filament in a sealed container with desiccant helps prevent moisture absorption.

It is recommended to use bed adhesives or specialized surfaces for glass fiber reinforced Nylon, and to avoid sudden temperature changes during printing to reduce warping and delamination. For first prints, it is advisable to start with a larger layer height and then adjust it according to the desired detail.
