PolyLite™ PLA-CF is a PLA filament that’s reinforced with 8% milled carbon fibers. This not only boosts the rigidity of the filament, but it also produces parts with a beautiful carbon black surface finish. The carbon fibers help reduce shrinkage during printing, producing extremely dimensionally accurate 3D printed parts with a unique surface finish.
PolyLite™ PLA-CF: Carbon Fiber Reinforced Strength and Precision
Premium Carbon Fiber Reinforcement
PolyLite™ PLA-CF is a high-performance PLA filament infused with 8% chopped carbon fiber by weight. This advanced formulation delivers exceptional rigidity and strength, making it ideal for demanding engineering projects and functional prototypes.
Outstanding Surface Finish and Dimensional Accuracy
Thanks to the carbon fiber content, prints exhibit a beautiful matte black finish with virtually invisible layer lines. The filament’s low shrinkage ensures excellent dimensional stability, resulting in parts that are both precise and visually impressive.
Easy Printing with Professional Results
PolyLite™ PLA-CF can be printed using standard PLA settings, making it accessible for a wide range of users. For best results and to prevent nozzle wear due to abrasiveness, a hardened nozzle is strongly recommended.
