Materials Guide & Example Prints

Materials

Fiber Nylon

The strongest material to make airsoft parts with. Extremely durable (3x stronger than PLA+), scratch resistant, rigid, high-temp, and lightweight. We use a premium grade of nylon called PA12 which does not get soft when exposed to humidity like other nylons. Filled with 15% carbon fiber for black color or glass fiber for other colors. Rough textured surface with matte finish. 90-day warranty on breakage. Datasheet (for black).

Colors in stock and ready to print: black, silver, desert tan, OD green, red, blue

PLA+

Very common material for making affordable airsoft parts, but less durable than Fiber Nylon. PLA+ has better impact strength than regular PLA. Parts will be printed with extra walls and infill, but there is still a risk of cracking from strong impacts or warping in high temperatures (>90F/32C). Smooth surface with a satin finish. No warranty on breakage. Datasheet.

Colors in stock and ready to print: black

Available on request (+$25): Any color you want with shiny, matte, gradient, sparkle, glow-in-the-dark, wood effect, or other finishes.

Other custom materials available on request (TPU, polycarbonate, PETG).

Print Settings

We use 6 walls and 30% cubic infill for high strength parts. Most parts with part thicknesses up to 6mm are printed completely solid. This is usually overkill, but we print our parts to be as strong as possible. Spend more time playing and less time worrying about your prints!
