Fiberlogy Nylon (PA12) + CF15 black 1 kg
Fiberlogy Nylon (PA12) + CF15 black 1 kg
NYLON PA12 + CF15 is yet another manifestation of the technical capabilities of filament PA12 which has been reinforced with 15% addition of carbon fibers. It is characterized by high thermal resistance and less shrinkage compared to the unmodified Nylon PA12 which also means much easier printability. More

The application of carbon fiber allows for a reduction of weight of the component while maintaining its high structural stiffness.
PA12 + CF has a range of applications across the industry, including the automotive and the engineering sectors, lending itself to the creation of advanced prototypes, drones and final products which require increased durability while reducing their weight.
The filament is wound on a spool, vacuum packed with a moisture absorber
Applications
- Prototypes: car parts, drones, high durability mechanical components
- Substitutes of metal elements
- End-use products, part engineering and tool production based on 3D printing
Properties
- twice the tensile strength of Nylon PA12
- more than twice the stiffness of Nylon PA12
- higher thermal resistance compared to unmodified Nylon PA12 (up to 160°C)
- high chemical resistance
- easier printing compared to unmodified PA12 nylons
