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.
FeaturesSpecsSupport
The carbon fiber reinforcement provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance without affecting z-axis layer adhesion. Featuring a heat deflection temperature of 215°C, this material lends itself perfectly to functioning automotive applications where strength and heat resistance are required from the material.
PolyMide™ PA6-CF is also an ESD safe material making it a suitable candidate for printing electronic jigs and fixtures.

Nozzle Temp: 280-300°C Bed Temp: 25-50°C (do not exceed 50) Camber Temp: 25-50°C (do not exceed 50) Printing Speed: 60mm/s Cooling Fan: OFF Bed Surface: Almost any surface with a thin coat of PVA or 3DLac, flex plate recommended Wear Resistant Nozzle: Recommendedas the 20% chopped carbon fibers (by weight) is highly abrasive
Annealing: Recommended at 90°C for 2 hours Supports: PolyDissolve S1 recommended, remove supports as soon as printing completes as atmospheric moisture will cause the supports to bond better with the model, making them harder to remove. Feeding: This is a very stiff filament, and a little brittle, so a feeder tube and no corners in your feeding path are recommended. Moisture: PolyMide PA6 is very hydroscopic, so it will absorb moisture quickly from the air. a PolyBox or similar filament storage and feeding system is recommended. Moist filament can be dried at 80°C for 12 hours in a conventional oven.
Material Properties:
Heat Deflection Temp: 196°C (1.80 Mpa HDT-a) AND 215°C (0.45 Mp HDT-B) tested to ASTM D648 (ISO 75) Youngs Modulus: 7453 Mpa tested to ATSM D638 (ISO 527, GB/T 1040) Charpy Impact Resistance: 13.3 kJ/m2 tested to ASTM D256 (ISO 179, GB/T 1043) Tensile Strength: Thanks to PolyMakers Fiber Adhesion Technology, layer adhesion is improved by 27%, giving a tensile strength in the Z-axis of 67.7Mpa according to ASTM D638 (ISO 527, GB/T1040)
