Materials Guide & Example Prints

Materials

We recommend Fiber Nylon for most parts. Parts are custom-made to-order and 3D printed with high quality materials and printers.

Fiber Nylon

The strongest material to make airsoft parts with. Fiber Nylon is usually a very difficult material to print with, but we’ve perfected our process over many years of using this for airsoft parts.

Extremely strong, durable, impact resistant, scratch resistant, and lightweight. >5x the impact strength of PLA. Filled with carbon fiber for black color or glass fiber for other colors. Suitable for all temperatures (up to 380F/194C!) and weather conditions. We use a premium grade of nylon called PA12 which does not get softer when exposed to humidity like other nylons. Rough textured surface with matte finish. 90-day warranty on breakage. Datasheet (for black).

Available colors: black, silver, desert tan, FDE brown, OD green, red, blue. No custom colors available.

PLA+

Most affordable material, but less durable than Fiber Nylon. PLA+ has much 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 matte finish. No warranty on breakage. Datasheet.

Available colors: black, gray, white, desert tan, OD green, red, blue, purple, wood, glow-in-the-dark green, or any custom color (+$25)
