Description

Esun ePA-CF Features:

1. Environmentally friendly, Nylon based, 20% carbon fiber.

2. Prints smoothly, odorless, matte finish when 3d printed.

3. High Strength, High Rigidity, Good Toughness, Wear Resistance

4. Heat Deflection Temperature up to 140℃ is a goof fit to 3D print industrial parts.

5. Compared to pure Nylon, it has lower shrink rate and distortion, high accuracy without warped edges.

6. Good flame resistance, Flame-retardant level: UL94-V2.

7. Stainless steel nozzle recommended for extensive use with Carbon or Metal filaments. Brass nozzles are ok for occasssional use.

Please remember that these materials are more advanced than standard PLA so your 3D Printer, & your settings need to be tuned.
All materials with additives like Carbon or Metal can cause the nozzle to block more frequently.
Using a 0.6mm or fatter nozzle significantly helps with this but you must experiment with slow speed & reduced retraction to get the best results.

Many Carbon Fibre Filaments on the market are not really ‘Carbon Fiber’.
They are simply PLA with 5% of Carbon fibre mixed in. These offer no actual improvement to functional capability as the base polymer is still PLA with only 5% fibre. They simply look like Carbon but will still soften at 55C, & crack as easily as cheap PLA does. These filaments will also delaminate quickly under load. Please be careful of these filaments & ONLY use them for cosmetic things.
