CARBONX PLA Carbon Fiber / Black (750gms / 2kg)
CarbonX PLA+CF
CarbonX PLA+CF is an amazing biopolymer plus recycled CF reinforced 3D printing filament. Made using 100% recycled carbon fiber and mated to the industry leading PLA biopolymer sourced from NatureWorks. This filament is ideal for anyone that desires a structural component with high modulus, excellent surface quality, dimensional stability, light weight, and ease of printing. Made in the USA!
PLA is well-known for its incredible ease of printing, stiffness, and extremely high visual print quality. It’s ideal for prototyping, concept models, and end-use printed parts for hobbyists and industry engineers alike!
Benefits of CarbonX™ PLA+CF Include:
Ideal for printing without a heated bed, no enclosure required
Bambu AMS compatible
Very low odor, perfect for 3D printing in home and office environments
Greatly increased stiffness, modulus, and dimensional stability
Made from plants, PLA is a renewable biopolymer
Gorgeous surface quality to make printed parts look beautiful
2.85mm and silver variant available on order only. (Lead time: <7 days)
Specifications
1.75mm and 2.85mm +/- 0.05mm in diameter
Print Recommendations
Extruder: 190-220°C
Bed Temp: 23-60°C
Nozzle: We currently recommend a hardened steel nozzle with a minimum diameter of 0.4mm.
Other: Ideal layer height is 60% of nozzle diameter. We do not recommend printing layers smaller than 0.2mm with carbon fiber reinforced filaments.
Bed Prep: Magigoo Bed Prep Adhesive gives us the best results
Heated Chamber: Not required
Supports: Water-soluble AquaTek X1 USM works great for complex parts.
Drying Instructions: 65°C for 4 hours.

Carbon Fiber
What Is It?
Fibers 5-10 micrometers wide made of carbon. The fibers are aligned following the axis of the material. This, along with their physical makeup, are what gives this material its excellent properties.
What Does It Do?
Carbon Fibers demonstrate a lot of desirable material properties:
- High stiffness
- High tensile strength
- High heat tolerance
- High chemical resistance
- Low weight
- Low thermal expansion
How Does It Work?
Reinforcing plastic with carbon fibers produces a 3D printing filament that exhibits the best properties of both the carbon fibers and the plastic of choice.
What Is It Good For?
Ideal for any applications which require lightweight and rigidity. Carbon fiber reinforced parts, designed to use less material and save weight, are extremely popular in aerospace, civil engineering, the military, and motorsports.
Abrasive Material
This material is particularly abrasive among 3D printing filaments. Users may find standard brass nozzles are chewed through very quickly compared to standard wear and tear. When worn through, the nozzle diameter will widen inconsistently, and the printer will experience extrusion issues. Because of this, it's strongly recommended this material be printed through a hardened steel nozzle rather than a softer metal. Hardened steel nozzles can often be inexpensive and easily installed depending on your printer manufacturer's instructions.
