Phaetus builds it with a co-extrusion \u003cstrong\u003eskin-core\u003c\/strong\u003e structure: a pure-nylon outer skin wrapped around a core packed with 25% chopped glass fiber. The point of that design is two-fold — the skin gives you clean, pure-resin Z-layer bonding (so you don't lose interlayer strength the way plain GF nylon does), and it keeps most of the abrasive fiber off the nozzle wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it prints well\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFunctional engineering parts that need to stay stiff and dimensionally stable when warm: brackets, mounts, jigs and fixtures, tooling, motion and drivetrain components, and thin-walled parts that still need real mechanical strength. As-printed tensile strength is ~97 MPa (X-Y), and heat-deflection temperature reaches ~195°C after annealing — well beyond what PETG or ABS will hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware you need\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardened or DLC nozzle — required.\u003c\/strong\u003e Glass fiber is abrasive. The skin-core layout reduces nozzle wear versus standard GF nylon, but a brass nozzle will still erode. Run hardened steel or DLC.
