Specifications
Description
SUNLU Nylon PA12-CF is an engineering-grade PA12 nylon reinforced with carbon fiber. It combines high impact resistance, stiffness, and heat resistance up to 175±3°C with a reduced density, so parts come out strong yet lightweight. It's a great fit for functional parts: automotive and RC frames, enclosures, brackets, drone components, and industrial tooling.
Print Settings
- Nozzle temperature: 260–280°C
- Bed temperature: 50–70°C, use an adhesive (glue stick) for bed adhesion
- Print speed: 60–100 mm/s
- Enclosure and all-metal hotend are required
- Low moisture absorption and stable geometry — less warping
This line is built for printers with an enclosure, a heated bed, and an all-metal hotend that can hold 280°C. It's a material for load-bearing functional parts rather than decorative prints: frames, gears, brackets, drone parts, and tooling that need strength and heat resistance.
FAQ
Yes. Carbon fiber is abrasive and quickly wears out a brass nozzle. Use a hardened steel nozzle, otherwise the bore will change after just one or two spools.
