MDS PA 2200 Balance

PA 2200 Balance

Product Description

PA 2200, based on polyamide 12, offers a wide range of applications thanks to its very balanced property profile and is the most proven material on the market.

PA 2200 is also available as the EOS Responsible Product PA 2200 CarbonReduced. It combines a heavily reduced CO₂e footprint with the well-known technical properties of PA 2200.

The advantage of the process parameter Balance, at 120µm layer thickness, lies in its ability to balance different factors at the same time, e.g., production costs, mechanical properties, surface quality and accuracy. Therefore it is suitable for parts with varying geometries, dimensions and requirements.
