Project Description
PA12+CF15 it combines the advantages of nylon and carbon fibers, resulting in an extraordinarily durable product.
Printouts made of PA12+CF15 filament have a thermal resistance of 160°C. They have been successfully powder coated and polymerized in an oven at 181°C for 15 minutes.
PA12+CF15 prints can be used as a replacement for steel elements to reduce the weight of the device or structure without losing the strength of the entire system.
The PA12+CF15 filament is easy to print and, thanks to the carbon fiber addition, has low processing shrinkage. Recommended especially for professionals and advanced users. When printing PA12+CF15, hardened steel nozzles are recommended (brass and aluminum nozzles are subject to abrasion), suggested nozzle size > 0.4 mm.

HOW TO PRINT
HOW TO PRINT
Recommended printing temperature: 250-300 °C.
Recommended table temperature: 70-120 °C.
When printing with PA12+CF15, hardened steel nozzles are recommended (brass and aluminum nozzles are subject to abrasion), suggested nozzle size >0.4 mm. We also recommend installing a full-metal heatbreak (no PTFE tube inside) due to the high extrusion temperature. If there are first layer adhesion problems adhesion, an adhesive spray should be used.
