eSun PA-CF Carbon Fiber Nylon Filament

3D Printer Store is Introducing the most functional 3D Printing filaments from the world to our New Zealand 3D Makers.
We have NZ’s Largest range of filaments in stock ready to send from right here in Auckland!

Important Note:  Most Carbon Fibre Filaments on the market are not really ‘Carbon Fibre performance’.
They are simply PLA with 5% of Carbon fibre mixed in. These offer NO improvement to functional capability as the base polymer is still PLA with only 5% fibre. They simply look like Carbon but will still soften at 55C, & crack as easily as cheap PLA does. These filaments will also ‘De-Laminate’ quickly under load. Please be careful of these filaments & ONLY use them for cosmetic things.

This Nylon has 20% Carbon Fibre in it.
High Strength, High Rigidity, Good Toughness, Wear Resisting
Good flame resistance, Flame-retardant Level: UL94-V2;

2.85mm Filament diameter designed for 3mm compatible 3d printer, like Ultimaker, Creatbot, Taz etc

PA Nylon has several advantages as a material. Adding 20% of Carbon Fibre increases its heat resistance!
CF also minimise the negative challenges of 3d printing with Nylon. Thats why our esun ePA-CF carbon fibre filament has several actual usable advantages as a true functional 3d printing material.

Recommend Print Settings: Please see our article here on how to 3D Print Carbon Fibre

Active Heated chamber recommended for the best performance.
Consider our Creatbot F-430 3D Printer if you intend to 3D Print Functional Carbon Fibre parts in a production like manner.

Description

Esun ePA-CF Features:

1. Environmentally friendly, Nylon based, 20% carbon fiber.

2. Printing smoothly, odorlessness, matte finish printing effect.

3. High Strength, High Rigidity, Good Toughness, Wear Resisting, Fitting to 3D print industrial parts.

4. Heat Deflection Temperature 140℃

5. Compared with Nylon, it has lower shrink rate and distortion, high accuracy without warped edge.

6. Good flame resistance, Flame-retardant level: UL94-V2.

7. Stainless steel nozzle recommended for extensive use with Carbon or Metal filaments. Brass nozzles are ok for occasssional use.

Please remember that these materials are more advanced than standard PLA so your 3D Printer, & your settings need to be tuned.
All materials with additives like Carbon or Metal can cause the nozzle to block more frequently.
Using a 0.6mm or fatter nozzle significantly helps with this but you must experiment with slow speed & reduced retraction to get the best results.
