PrimaSelect NylonPower Carbon Fiber – The latest generation of high-performance filament for your 3D printer

PrimaSelect NylonPower Carbon Fiber is part of the latest generation of high-performance filament for your 3D printer. The filament is based on nylon 12 and is 20% reinforced with carbon fibers. This composition results in an excellently strong material. The nylon-carbon filament is perfect for the additive manufacturing of components for the automotive industry, drone construction, and RC parts.

Material properties of PrimaSelect NylonPower Carbon Fiber:

• High chemical and thermal resistance
• Excellent surface quality
• Less warping than normal nylon
• Easy to 3D print
• Creates very strong parts

3D print very strong parts from NylonPower and carbon fiber

PrimaSelect NylonPower Carbon Fiber is an extremely useful material with very special material properties. In this filament, nylon is reinforced with small, cut carbon fiber strands. The PrimaSelect NylonPower filament offers incredible stiffness, structure, and excellent layer adhesion.

NylonPower filament with carbon is easy to work with

NylonPower is also very easy to work with and has a matte finish. Perfect 3D prints are very rigid, stiff, and ideal if you need an object with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. To process PrimaSelect NylonPower filament, use a heated 3D print bed, set to 60 ˚C, to achieve good adhesion of the first layer to the print platform.

Process NylonPower carbon fiber with a steel nozzle

Due to the highly abrasive properties of PrimaSelect NylonPower (the nozzle's opening wears out quickly due to abrasion), it is recommended to use a hardened steel nozzle for this filament. Using a normal brass nozzle is not a problem, but the nozzle will wear out in a short time.

PrimaSelect NylonPower adheres to adhesive spray or glass coated with a suitable adhesive for PA.

Material properties of PrimaSelect NylonPower Carbon Fiber:

• Weight & Spool: Each spool comes with 500 grams of high-quality filament. NylonPower is packaged on a transparent spool with a strong desiccant to prevent moisture.
• Perfect diameter tolerance: The NylonPower filament is controlled throughout the manufacturing process. This ensures that you get a filament with a diameter tolerance of +/- 0.05mm.
• Perfect winding: We have gone to great lengths to make every spool of filament perfect. Ensure that the filament does not get tangled on the spool.
• Easy 3D printing: The carbon fibers mixed into the nylon make this material very easy to work with on most 3D printers. We recommend a hardened nozzle.

Keep nylon-carbon filament away from moisture

The carbon fibers in PrimaSelect NylonPower reduce the amount of water that can be absorbed. However, for optimal processing, care must be taken to keep the filament away from moisture and to protect it.

To do this, you should store PrimaCreator NylonPower in a dry place immediately after unpacking. The filament comes in a vacuum bag with desiccant so that the first 3D print is immediately successful and you achieve a perfect result.

If it has been exposed to moisture, we strongly advise you to dry the NylonPower carbon fiber filament before 3D printing. Simply place the entire spool in the oven at 80°C for 5-7 hours. This will dry the spool and you can start a new 3D print.

Optimal processing temperature of PrimaSelect NylonPower

PrimaSelect NylonPower requires an extruder temperature of 250 - 265°C for optimal extrusion. This NylonPower filament can be processed on most 3D printers. However, we strongly recommend using an all-metal extruder for higher temperatures. PrimaSelect NylonPower carbon fiber filament can also be processed at lower temperatures. However, always keep in mind that at lower temperatures you will not get the same strength in your finished parts.

The filament contains carbon fibers, which make it very abrasive to the nozzle. We strongly recommend using a hardened steel nozzle for this filament, as a normal brass nozzle will be worn down by the nylon filament in no time.

Larger nozzles of 0.6 or 0.8 mm produce very strong 3D prints and reduce the risk of clogging the nozzle's opening. However, it can also be used with a 0.4 mm nozzle.

NylonPower carbon fiber does not adhere well to PEI, BuildTak, or similar surfaces. Glass is the best surface to use with Magigoo, PrintaFix, PVA-based glue sticks, or other adhesives. Turn off the fan when 3D printing with NylonPower.
