HP® 3D High Reusability PA 12 GB is a glass-bead-filled polyamide 12 engineered for Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) 3D printing. The addition of glass beads improves stiffness, dimensional stability, and compressive strength compared to standard PA 12, making it suitable for functional prototypes, jigs, fixtures, and end-use parts that require higher rigidity. The material maintains the durability, chemical resistance, and process reliability typical of HP’s High Reusability PA 12 family, while offering enhanced thermal resistance and reduced part warping.

Available finishes

Each finish can be combined with the available colors at checkout.

Standard

19 colors

Matte gray, as-printed, functional surface.

Electroplated

8 colors

Electroplating is a process where a thin layer of metal is applied to plastic surfaces to enhance durability, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity.

Polished

19 colors

A smooth, glossy surface achieved through mechanical tumbling, enhancing aesthetics and reducing surface roughness on MJF PA12 parts.

Shot Peened

19 colors

Shot peening improves both the aesthetic and functional durability of the models, making them smoother and more resilient.

Vapor Smoothed

19 colors

Vapor smoothing uses a vaporized solvent to partially melt and blend the outer layer of a 3D print, significantly reducing visible layer lines to create a more uniform, sealed finish.
