Nylon Based Ice9 Filament - Thermally Conductive and ESD Safe
Ice9™ NYLON is a specialty graphite based polyamide that is thermally conductive with temperature stability above 150°C. The filament has a thermal conductivity of 4 W/m-K in the print direction and dissipates static electricity making it ESD safe. Ice9™ NYLON works well with most standard FDM printers (with nozzles that can achieve at least 270°C print temperature). Now in a 0.5 kg size (larger sizes available upon request), but we still utilize full size spools so that they fit most filament holder setups. Ideal for smaller projects or testing designs before moving into production.
$79.99 per 0.5 kg filament spools.
