Carbon Fiber Reinforced Filaments

Carbon fiber filaments are produced by mixing short carbon fibers into a carrier plastic such as PLA, PETG, or nylon. The result: a far stiffer, dimensionally stable, and lightweight version of that same plastic.

Carbon reinforcement — especially when combined with nylon (PA-CF) — can produce parts suitable as metal alternatives for drone frames, robotic components, jigs and fixtures, and automotive prototypes. It also delivers a matte, professional surface finish.

Important note: the fibers are abrasive and require a hardened nozzle. Additionally, while carbon reinforcement increases rigidity, it can reduce impact flexibility; choosing the right carrier plastic is therefore critical. You can find the carbon fiber option in our price list.
