Polymaker PolyMide™ PA6-CF black

Polymaker PolyMide PA6-CF is a revolutionary material in the realm of 3D printing, combining high durability and exceptional printing properties. Based on its composition, it's a special type of filament that's reinforced with carbon fibers. These carbon fibers enhance the stiffness of the material while retaining its elasticity and impact resistance. This means that the resulting printed components are much more robust than those made from regular filaments.

PA6-CF is highly resistant to high temperatures, making it ideal for applications where products are exposed to temperature fluctuations.

Another key feature of this material is its ESD safety, meaning it protects against electrostatic discharges. This is especially critical in the electronics industry, where static discharges can damage or destroy sensitive components. Besides all these technical properties, PolyMide PA6-CF is designed to be easily printable, making it an exceptional choice for 3D printing professionals seeking a material that combines high quality, durability, and easy processability.

Recommendations from Hotend.cz:

Depending on the specifics of your 3D printer and the slicer used, optimal print conditions may vary. We recommend adhering to the manufacturer's temperature parameters and adjusting them to the specific needs of your device.

For beginners in 3D printing, this material might be more challenging to set up. If you're looking for an easier-to-print material, try PLA or PET-G.

Safety warning: Follow all the manufacturer's safety recommendations and print in a well-ventilated environment.
