- Ideal for components requiring great strength & high-temp tolerance
- Print large parts without an enclosure
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
CONSISTENCY YOU CAN COUNT ON
Every spool is crafted from premium-grade materials and undergoes thorough testing for diameter, color consistency, and mechanical properties. This careful monitoring ensures you receive perfect, reliable filament with every purchase.
- Uses premium materials for top performance
- Every spool inspected for perfection
- Thoroughly tested for consistency
PRINTING PRECISION GUARANTEED
Prusa Research guarantees a precise ±0.04mm filament diameter, surpassing the industry's 0.05mm standard for accuracy. This ensures flawless extrusions, giving you the confidence to achieve perfect results, combined with highly consistent colors every time.
- Guaranteed ±0.04mm diameter precision
- Exceeds industry accuracy standards
- Superior color consistency
PREPARED IN-HOUSE BY PRUSA
Unsatisfied with existing filament quality, Prusa Research chose to manufacture its own. As the only 3D printer company with in-house filament production, they ensure every spool meets high standards for performance and reliability.
SCAN FOR INSTANT ASSURANCE
Prusa Research lets you verify the quality of every filament spool. Simply scan the QR code on the spool to access detailed production data and ensure you are getting the highest quality with complete transparency.
PRINTING SETUP
| Nozzle | 285±10 °C |
| Heatbed | 110±10°C |
| Recommended Steel Sheet* | PA Nylon |
*Make sure the surface of the build plate is clean before printing.
BASIC ATTRIBUTES
| STRENGTHS | TRADE-OFFS |
| High impact and wear resistance (very strong and rigid material) |
Requires hardened nozzle |
| Excellent high-temperature resistance (up to 190°C) |
Lower layer-to-layer adhesion compared to pure PA11 |
| Low friction coefficient | Carbon fibers increase filament diameter variability (0.04mm) |
| Great chemical resistance | Slightly hygroscopic |
| Great dimensional stability – possible to print large models without an enclosure |
A special print sheet (or separation layer) is required |
| Noticeably less hygroscopic compared to other polyamides |
Emits odors during printing |
| Visually appealing matte black surface |
TIPS & TRICKS
- Using an abrasive-resistant nozzle (hardened steel, ruby-tip, diamond-tip, tungsten carbide, etc.) is required.
- Carbon fibers are highly abrasive and will quickly wear out a brass nozzle.
- Using a glue stick on a satin build plate is recommended to preserve its longevity.
- Drying the filament before use is recommended. You can find filament dryers here.
