Spectrum Carbon PLA is a modified, PLA-based filament blended with carbon fibers which contributes to a considerably higher rigidity, hardness, and tensile resistance while retaining low shrinkage and very good adhesion to build platforms typical for the pure PLA. The 10% addition of carbon fibre enables you to obtain matte surfaces of printed items, which greatly improves the aesthetic properties of printed items.

Improved Hardness and Rigidity
PLA Carbon is a modified, PLA-based filament blended with carbon fibers which contributes to a considerably higher rigidity, hardness and tensile resistance, while retaining low shrinkage and very good adhesion to build platforms typical for the pure PLA. The 10% addition of carbon fibre enables you to obtain matte surfaces of printed items, which greatly improves the aesthetic properties of printed items.
Tip: Due to the essential content of carbon fiber, it is recommended to use nozzles with diameters exceeding the standard value of 0.4mm. The presence of carbon fibre may also cause the wear of brass nozzle, thus it is recommended to use stainless steel nozzles for prolonged application of Spectrum Carbon PLA.
Key features:
• Improved hardness and rigidity as compared to the pure PLA
• Higher plasticisation temperature
• Improved abrasion resistance
• Much higher compression resistance
• Good mechanical properties
• High aesthetic, matte surface quality
• No shrinkage after cooling
Applications:
• Items which need to be very rigid and hard while maintaining dimensional accuracy
• Manufacturing of spacer components subject to static compressive loads
• Concept and demo prototyping of designed finished and semi-finished products
• Ornamental parts (aesthetic properties)
• External structural components which emphasise the product
• Prototyping
Packaging
Filament is reeled on the neat, transparent spool. Each spool contains information on the type of material, diameter and recommended printing temperature. Filament is vacuum-packed with a moisture absorber. Whole product packed in the original, folied Spectrum Filaments packaging.

Spectrum Nylon, PA6 Carbon Fibre, 1.75mm, 750g
High temperature construction material
Nylon PA6 CF15 is a high-temperature, black, PA6-based construction material. Filling with 15% carbon fibres increases significantly the mechanical strength of the polyamide the material is based on. The filaments specific quality is the moisture absorption reduced by half and the water absorption time is four times lower than that of the pure PA6. Printing does not require a heated chamber and no deformation occurs. The material is compatible with the HIPS and BVOH support materials. In addition, Nylon PA6 CF15 features a very low linear shrinkage (up to 0.1%), a high deformation temperature (240°C), working temperature (180°C) and low thermal expansion coefficient (0.4 10-5/K).
PolyMide™ PA6-CF is a carbon fiber reinforced nylon (PA6) 3D printing material offering the highest strength, impact resistance and heat deflection of all Polymaker 3D printing materials.
