XSTRAND™ products are designed to be compatible with most open Fused Filament Fabricated 3D Printers.
WARNING: When melted, XSTRAND™ filament can be abrasive due to its glass reinforcement. Printing with XSTRAND™ may reduce lifespan of brass nozzles and extruder driving wheels. It is advised to use hardened steel nozzles or ruby nozzles
Storage and Drying
XSTRAND™ filaments must be stored in a dark and temperate location. It is recommended that the product remain closed in its original packaging until use.
IMPORTANT NOTE: GF30-PA6 is very sensitive to moisture. For optimal printing results, the product must be dried at least 4 hours in the oven at 80°C prior to use, and stored in a dry case, even during printing.
