Formlabs SLS Powders

3D print production-ready, end-use parts on our SLS printers with our family of SLS Powders. Our materials, hardware, and software are developed and validated together to deliver peak performance while optimizing cost per part.

Nylon 12 Powder

A Material That Does It All

Balancing strength and detail, Nylon 12 Powder is a highly capable material for both functional prototyping and end-use production of complex assemblies and durable parts with high environmental stability. Our Nylon 12 Powder is specifically developed for use on the Fuse Series SLS 3D printers.

Nylon 12 Powder is ideal for:

  • High performance prototyping
  • Small batch manufacturing
  • Permanent jigs, fixtures, and tooling
  • Biocompatible, sterilizable parts*
* Material properties may vary based on part design and manufacturing practices. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to validate the suitability of the printed parts for the intended use.

Nylon 12 GF Powder

Stiff, Stable, Functional Parts

A glass-filled material with enhanced stiffness and thermal stability for demanding industrial environments. Choose Nylon 12 GF Powder to produce stiff functional prototypes or end-use parts for applications where structural rigidity and thermal stability are critical. 

Nylon 12 GF Powder is ideal for:

  • Robust jigs and fixtures and replacement parts 
  • Parts undergoing sustained loading 
  • Threads and sockets 
  • Parts subjected to elevated temperatures

Nylon 11 Powder

High Performance, High Impact

For highly ductile, robust parts, Nylon 11 Powder is our higher performance nylon material for functional prototyping and small batch production. Compared to Nylon 12 Powder, our Nylon 11 Powder is more flexible, less brittle, and better at printing thin walls.

Nylon 11 Powder is ideal for:

  • Impact-resistant prototypes, jigs, and fixtures
  • Thin-walled ducts and enclosures
  • Snaps, clips, and hinges
  • Orthotics and prosthetics*
* Material properties may vary based on part design and manufacturing practices. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to validate the suitability of the printed parts for the intended use.

Nylon 11 CF Powder

Carbon Fiber SLS, for Strong and Lightweight Parts

Get the best of nylon and carbon fiber with this highly stable, high-performance material, perfect for end-use applications that require both high stiffness and superior strength. Choose Nylon 11 CF Powder to produce lightweight rigid parts that can withstand repeated impact and remain stable over time, even at high temperatures.

Nylon 11 CF Powder is ideal for:

  • Replacement and spare alternatives for metal parts
  • Tooling, jigs, fixtures
  • High-impact equipment
  • Functional composite prototypes

Polypropylene Powder

Ductile, Lightweight, and Chemically Resistant

Leverage genuine polypropylene to produce works-like prototypes and durable end-use parts that are chemically resistant, weldable, and watertight. Polypropylene Powder offers high ductility, allowing for repeated bending and flexing while ensuring durability, without the need for inert atmospheric control.

Polypropylene Powder is ideal for:

  • Watertight housings, cases, packaging prototypes
  • Orthotics and prosthetics
  • Automotive interior components
  • Strong and chemically resistant fixtures, tools, and jigs

TPU 90A Powder

A Tough SLS Elastomer for Resilient, Skin-Safe Products

Create flexible TPU parts with unmatched design freedom and ease. Balancing high elongation at break and superior tear strength, TPU 90A Powder enables you to 3D print flexible, skin-safe prototypes and end-use parts that withstand the demands of everyday use – all at a low cost per part thanks to a 20% refresh rate.

TPU 90A Powder is ideal for:

  • Wearables and soft-touch elements
  • Padding, dampers, cushions, and grippers
  • Gaskets, seals, masks, belts, plugs, and tubes
  • Soles, splints, orthotics, and prosthetics
