Please note - carbon fiber reinforced filaments are abrasive and can wear out a brass or aluminum nozzle.  

We recommend a hardened steel nozzles.

New Data:  We updated the mechanical and thermal data on our carbon fiber grades.  You can see the new data HERE on our blog.

Recommended Print Conditions:

  • Extruder:  190-220°C.  
  • Bed Temp:  23 - 60°C  (Heated bed NOT necessary)  
  • Bed Prep:  3DXTech Blue Painters Tape, PVA-based Glue, Hairspray on clean glass, or PEI spring steel bed.
  • Nozzle: We strongly recommend a 0.4mm orifice or larger using a hardened steel nozzles
  • Layer Height:  Ideal layer height is 60% of nozzle diameter.  We do not recommend printing layers below 0.25mm with carbon fiber grades.  Lower than 0.25mm may create too much back pressure in the hot end and result in poor feeding, jams, drive gear clicking, and eating a notch into the filament.
  • Support:  Our Aquatek water soluble support works great to create complex parts.    
  • Drying Instructions:  Please see the following instructions for when you want to dry out this filament.
