Material Color
Dark gray
Surface
Finer resolution than PA11 from the SAF
Advantages
- High strength
- High accuracy and fine resolution
- For series production
High yield, high accuracy and low cost are the distinguishing features of components made of polyamide PA12 from SAF technology. Components made of SAF™ PA12 are stiffer than PA11 parts and are perfect for applications where strength is an important requirement. SAF™ PA12 enables fine feature resolution, high strength and accuracy even at high volumes. The material is particularly suitable for higher tolerance requirements, such as assemblies and connectors.
