PA12 (Nylon 12) on the Anycubic Kobra 2

Yes, but it takes extra gear or care. Open budget bed slinger for the everyday materials.

Tricky

PA12 (Nylon 12) is tricky on the Anycubic Kobra 2

  • No enclosure on this printerPrinter

    The Anycubic Kobra 2 is open to the room, and PA12 (Nylon 12) warps and cracks in open air. Small parts can survive; for anything bigger, add an enclosure (even a grow tent or a box over the printer helps).

  • Stay at the cool end of the nozzle rangePrinter

    PA12 (Nylon 12) runs 250-275 °C, but the Anycubic Kobra 2 stops at 260 °C. Printable, just without the hotter half of the range.

  • Keep the spool dryMaterial

    PA12 (Nylon 12) soaks up moisture from the air, and damp filament prints rough and stringy. If that happens, dry the spool at 70-90 °C for 12-16 h and store it sealed with desiccant.

  • Buying the CF version of PA12 (Nylon 12)?

    Carbon-fiber filament sands down the Anycubic Kobra 2’s stock nozzle. Plain PA12 (Nylon 12) is fine; for the CF variant, fit a hardened steel nozzle first (a cheap swap).
