Carbon-Filled Nylon Raise3D Industrial PA12 CF+ 1.75 mm Black
Composite Filament Nylon PA12 CF+ is a professional carbon-filled nylon material for 3D printing durable, lightweight, and heat-resistant functional parts. Thanks to the PA6/PA12 polyamide matrix and 15% short carbon fiber reinforcement, the filament provides high stiffness, geometric stability, and mechanical endurance. Nylon plastic PA12 CF+ Raise3D is intended for industrial applications where load resistance, vibration resistance, and weight reduction of structures are important.
Who the Filament is Intended For and Usage Scenarios
The material is oriented towards professional and industrial use. Due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, this plastic is often used as an alternative to metal parts to reduce the weight of structures.
What is Printed with the Composite Nylon Plastic Industrial PA12 CF+ Raise3D:
- Elements for the Automotive and Engineering Industries: brackets, engine parts, housings, and air ducts.
- Technological Equipment: strong clamps, fasteners, templates, and guides.
- End Functional Parts: device housings, complex fasteners, and mechanism assemblies that operate under high-temperature conditions.
Main Advantages of Carbon Fiber Nylon CF+
- Improved Interlayer Adhesion (Z-axis Strength): the modified formula eliminates the main problem of carbon filaments — brittleness between layers. The material bonds strongly during printing, so finished products do not delaminate even under significant loads.
- High Heat Resistance: the heat deflection temperature (HDT) under load is up to 142 °C after heat treatment.
- Chemical Resistance: according to the safety data sheet SDS the material demonstrates good chemical resistance to automotive oils, fuels, alkalis, and most solvents.
- Surface Aesthetics: finished parts have a deep color with a pleasant matte texture that helps hide print layers and minor imperfections.
Operational Features and Compatibility
The material belongs to the category of complex engineering polymers and requires strict adherence to printing technology.
- Abrasiveness: carbon fiber quickly wears out regular nozzles. It is recommended to use wear-resistant nozzles made of hardened steel, tungsten carbide, or with a ruby tip with a diameter of 0.4 mm or more.
- Drying and Storage: the plastic is sensitive to moisture. Before printing, be sure to dry the filament in a chamber at a temperature of 80 °C for approximately 6–8 hours.
- Heat Treatment: to achieve maximum mechanical characteristics and produce end functional parts, it is recommended to subject the products to heat treatment in an oven after printing.
- Printer Compatibility: the filament is optimized for use with Raise3D series printers E2CF, Pro3 HS, and RMF500, but can be successfully used on any other professional FDM printers with an extruder temperature of 280–300 °C.
Technical Specifications and 3D Printing Setup Recommendations
For printing, it is recommended to use a matte or textured PEI platform, as well as a perforated platform, which provide stable model adhesion and quality first-layer formation. To enhance adhesion, especially when printing large or technical parts, and to prevent corner lifting and product deformation, it is recommended to additionally use specialized high-temperature glue.
