PA6 (Nylon 6) on the Voron 2.4 (DIY)

Yes, with a couple of cautions. DIY kit you build yourself. Specs here follow the official reference build; yours may differ.

Works with care

PA6 (Nylon 6) works on the Voron 2.4 (DIY), mind a couple of things

  • Stay at the cool end of the nozzle rangePrinter

    PA6 (Nylon 6) runs 250-280 °C, but the Voron 2.4 (DIY) stops at 270 °C. Printable, just without the hotter half of the range.

  • Enclosed chamber, exactly what this material wantsPrinter

    The Voron 2.4 (DIY) is a closed box, so PA6 (Nylon 6) cools slowly and evenly instead of warping.

  • Keep the spool dryMaterial

    PA6 (Nylon 6) 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 PA6 (Nylon 6)?

    Carbon-fiber filament sands down the Voron 2.4 (DIY)’s stock nozzle. Plain PA6 (Nylon 6) is fine; for the CF variant, fit a hardened steel nozzle first (a cheap swap).
