The set of 10 Onyx Markforged filament spools allows you to profitably purchase high-quality material for 3D printing. 10 spools of Onyx in a set are cheaper than the same quantity purchased individually. Onyx is nylon reinforced with chopped carbon fiber. It is designed specifically for Markforged 3D printers and can be used with any 3D printer of the brand, except for the Metal X series 3D printers.

Onyx has outstanding characteristics. It is 1.4 times stronger than ABS plastic. The material is also significantly stiffer than ABS. Parts printed from Onyx have an excellent surface finish. They are resistant to chemicals. Onyx also features high heat resistance.

Features of Onyx Markforged Material

Onyx is a patented composite material. Its base is nylon. Micro carbon fiber particles are added to the composition. This gives the material unique mechanical properties.

Onyx is ideal for 3D printing:

• Provides high dimensional accuracy.
• Parts made of Onyx have a matte black surface.
• The surface hides print layers.
• Finished products look aesthetically pleasing.
• The material has low shrinkage. This reduces the risk of deformation during printing.
• Onyx is compatible with all Markforged continuous fibers.
• This allows for even stronger parts to be created.
• Fiberglass, Kevlar, or carbon fiber can be used.

Onyx Characteristics

• Strength: Onyx demonstrates high tensile strength. It is suitable for creating functional prototypes.
• Stiffness: The material has excellent stiffness. This is important for parts subjected to loads.
• Heat Resistance: Onyx withstands elevated temperatures. This expands its areas of application.
• Chemical Resistance: Parts made of Onyx are resistant to many chemical reagents. This makes them suitable for industrial environments.
• Surface Quality: Prints from Onyx have a smooth and even surface. Additional post-processing is often not required.
