Nylon CF10
FDM Nylon-CF10 is a nylon carbon fiber filament. The base polymer is filled 10% by weight with chopped carbon, which produces a composite material 67% stronger and 190% stiffer than the nylon base material. FDM Nylon-CF10 is also possesses good chemical resistance, toughness, and abrasion resistance.
The material’s strength and rigidity make it an excellent choice to replace metal for appropriate work-holding fixtures and other manufacturing tooling. Its chemical resistance is also a desirable feature in an environment exposed to typical manufacturing fluids. FDM Nylon-CF10 possesses a uniform matte finish that produces a visually appealing surface finish.
