FDM Nylon CF12 - Carbon Fiber - An Industrial FDM 3D Printing Material

FDM Nylon 12CF (Carbon Fiber)

FDM 3D Printing Carbon Fiber Thermoplastic
Carbon Reinforced

FDM Nylon 12 Carbon Fiber (Nylon 12CF) combines Nylon 12 and chopped carbon fiber to achieve the highest flexural strength and stiffness-to-weight ratio of any FDM material. Nylon 12CF also provides a cleaner carbon fiber additive process than SLA with equivalent strength properties.

Lightweight Strength.

The strength and rigidity to replace metal in certain applications. Replace heavy metal tools with lighter, ergonomic carbon fiber FDM tools. Validate designs faster with carbon fiber functional prototypes instead of costly and time-consuming metal prototypes.
