PolyMide™ PA6-CF (Carbon Fiber Nylon)

PolyMide™ PA6-CF is a carbon fiber reinforced PA6 (Nylon 6) filament. The carbon fiber reinforcement provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance with outstanding layer adhesion.

1.75mm black PA6-CF filament on 0.5kg spools. 

PolyMide™ is Polymakers family of Nylon/polyamide based filaments. Produced with Polymaker’s Warp-Free™ technology, PolyMide™ filaments deliver engineering properties intrinsic to Nylon and ease of printing.

Polymaker PolyMide PA6-CF nylon filament 1.75mm is made of 80% PA and 20% chopped carbon fibers. The carbon fiber reinforcement really provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance with outstanding layer adhesion (Heat Deflection Temperature (ISO 75 0.45 MPa): 215℃)

PolyMide PA6-CF is very strong, durable and features an excellent heat resistance. It can be used in applications requiring torsional, tensile, and impact strength such as bicycle pedals, brackets, jigs, ESD safe fixtures, drone frame, prosthetics or handles.

PA6-CF nylon filament 1.75 is carefully winded to avoid any tangling issues, dried and vacuum sealed in a resealable ziplock bag with desiccant. Please make sure to NEVER let go the tip of the filament as it may create nodes. Holes on the side of the spool can be used to prevent this issue

Printing Setting - Nozzle: 280-300℃; Bed Temperature: 25-50℃ (Do NOT exceed 50℃); Speed: 30mm/s – 60mm/s; Annealing: 80℃ 6h

Note - It is important to have an abrasion resistant nozzle since there is carbon fiber inside this Nylon filament. PolyMide PA6-CF is a very stiff filament so it is required to have a good set up to ensure a good feeding (avoiding excessive bending in the filament guide system). It's ultra critical to have your filament enclosed in a desiccant box while printing, and keep your nozzles clean between every 8 prints.
