Taulman 3D Nylon 230 Filament 2.85mm 1lb Natural

Taulman Nylon 230 Filament 2.85mm 1lb

Taulman Nylon 230 is a standard Nylon 6 filament developed for 3D printers with cold print beds and lower temperature capabilities. It prints between 228C and 235C without requiring a heated bed. The 1lb spool suits makers producing light-load gears, fan blades, housings, phone covers, protective enclosures and cosmetics containers.

Low-temperature printing on ambient beds

The material extrudes at 230C to 238C while the print bed stays at ambient temperature, reducing power draw and warm-up time. Standard Nylon 6 composition contains no chemical additives, limiting odour and fumes during normal use. Tensile strength reaches 4980 PSI with 417% elongation, indicating tough, flexible parts straight from the printer.

Upgrade from higher-temp nylons for cold-bed systems

This filament replaces standard nylons that demand heated chambers or beds above ambient, letting older or entry-level printers produce durable nylon parts. The jump is worth it when you need Nylon 6 toughness but your hardware caps nozzle temperature near 235C and lacks bed heating. Buyers needing larger spool sizes or higher temperature resistance should look elsewhere.
