Video Description

In this video, I test and compare three nylon-based 3D printing filaments from Sunlu: Easy PA, PA6-CF, and PA12-CF. I go beyond just printing them — these materials are analyzed through a full series of mechanical tests, including tensile, impact, shear, torsion, bending, creep, and thermal resistance. Sunlu website (affiliate): https://www.sunlu.com?sca_ref=6072024.hoQfHOudeF Coupon code: HOQFHOUDEF I also check for printability, brittleness out of the box, layer adhesion, and dimensional stability after annealing. If you’ve been wondering whether Easy PA is a budget winner or if one of the carbon fiber-filled nylons is worth the extra cost, you’ll find the answers here. Support on Patreon If you find this kind of detailed testing helpful, consider supporting me on Patreon: 📌 https://www.patreon.com/mytechfun Patrons get early access to some videos and a downloadable spreadsheet summarizing all previous material test results, so you can compare them easily using the same test methods.
