NYLON PA12+CF

CARBON EXCELLENCE

NYLON PA12 + CF is yet another manifestation of the technical capabilities of filament PA12 which has been reinforced with 15% addition of carbon fibers. It is characterized by high thermal resistance and less shrinkage compared to the unmodified Nylon PA12.

The application of carbon fiber allows for a reduction of the weight of the component while maintaining its high structural stiffness.

As a carbon fiber-reinforced filament, PA12+CF is widely used in industrial applications, including the automotive, aerospace, and engineering sectors. It is ideal for producing high-performance prototypes, drone components, and end-use parts that demand enhanced strength, stiffness, and lightweight properties.

APPLICATIONS:

  • Prototypes: car parts, drones, high durability mechanical components
  • Substitutes of metal elements
  • End-use products, part engineering and tool production based on 3D printing
