Polymaker PolyMide PA6-CF 1.75mm
PolyMide™ PA6-CF is a 20% carbon fiber reinforced Nylon 6 filament. The carbon fiber reinforcement provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance with outstanding layer adhesion thanks to Fiber Adhesion™ Technology. PolyMide™ PA6-CF outperforms almost every 3D printing material, offering extreme durability and functionality while featuring a heat deflection temperature of 215°C.
WHAT IS THE PERCENTAGE OF THE CARBON FIBER CONTENT IN POLYMIDE™ PA6-CF:
It contains 20 wt% carbon fibers.

Based on 0.4 mm nozzle and Simplify 3D v.3.1. Printing conditions may vary with different nozzle diameters.
Note:
- Based on 0.4 mm nozzle and Simplify 3D v.3.1. Printing conditions may vary with different nozzle diameters.
- Abrasion of the copper nozzle happens quite often when printing PolyMide™ PA6-GF. Normally, the life of a copper nozzle
- would be approximately 9h. A wear-resistance nozzle, such as hardened steel and ruby nozzle, is highly recommended to be used with PolyMide™ PA6-GF.
- PolyMide™ PA6-GF is sensitive to moisture and should always be stored and used under dry conditions (relative humidity below 20%).
- If PolyMide™ PA6-GF is used as the support material for itself, please remove the support structure before excessive moisture absorption. Otherwise, the support structure can be permanently bonded to the model.
- After the printing process, it is recommended to anneal the model in the oven at 80 - 100°C for 1 - 3 hours.
