Polymaker Polymide PA6-CF Filament – 500 g, 1.75 mm
Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polyamide Filament for Structural Strength
Polymaker Polymide PA6-CF is a high-performance polyamide (nylon) filament reinforced with carbon fibre to deliver enhanced rigidity, dimensional stability, and mechanical durability. This advanced engineering material is designed for functional parts, demanding mechanical applications, and industrial workflows where strength, wear resistance, and reliable performance are critical.
Exceptional Mechanical Properties and Heat Resistance
The carbon fibre content significantly increases stiffness, tensile strength, and wear resistance compared to standard polyamide filaments. This makes Polymide PA6-CF well-suited for structural components, jigs and fixtures, assemblies, and other parts that must withstand repeated stress, mechanical loads, or elevated temperatures.
Improved Dimensional Accuracy and Reduced Warp
Carbon fibre reinforcement helps minimise shrinkage and deformation during printing, improving dimensional accuracy and overall print stability. Strong interlayer adhesion and reinforced filament structure deliver consistent results, even on larger or complex models.
Matte Surface and Durable Finish
Printed parts exhibit a refined matte appearance with excellent surface detail, helping to mask layer lines while still providing the robust mechanical performance expected from an engineering-grade material. The filament’s abrasion resistance enhances the longevity of printed parts under load.
Thermal and Printing Requirements
Due to the high-temperature nature of nylon and the abrasive character of carbon fibre reinforcement, Polymide PA6-CF benefits from printing with a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle and a controlled build environment, such as an enclosed printer. A heated build plate and proper adhesion methods improve reliability and reduce warping tendencies.
Moisture-Protected and Ready to Use
Each 500g spool is supplied in moisture-resistant packaging to preserve filament quality and minimise the risk of printing issues associated with moisture absorption. Proper storage and pre-drying help maintain consistent extrusion and part quality.
