Flashforge PA-CF Black 1.75 mm 500 g

Flashforge PA-CF Black is a high-quality 3D printing filament based on Nylon (Polyamide), reinforced with carbon fibers. This combination combines the excellent mechanical properties of nylon—such as high toughness and wear resistance—with the stiffness and dimensional stability provided by the carbon fibers. The result is a material ideal for printing functional prototypes and durable end-use parts. The filament is black in color with a diameter of 1.75 mm and a weight of 500 g. Recommended print settings include a nozzle temperature between 260 °C and 280 °C and a heated bed temperature of 80 °C to 100 °C. Due to nylon's tendency to absorb moisture, it is crucial to keep the filament dry before and during printing. The strengths of PA-CF include its high strength, heat resistance, and low thermal expansion, leading to reduced warping. However, the material requires an enclosed chamber for optimal results and is abrasive, making hardened nozzles recommended. Typical applications are found in the automotive industry, robotics, and for mechanically stressed parts.
