-
Easy PLA Printing: No enclosure required, minimal warping
A perfect choice for makers who want strong, accurate parts with a professional finish, without the complexity.
Key Features
- Carbon Fibre Reinforced: Infused with 8% carbon fibre to enhance stiffness and structural performance.
- Excellent Dimensional Accuracy: Reduced shrinkage helps maintain tight tolerances for precise parts.
- Professional Finish: Produces a carbon black, textured surface that minimises visible layer lines.
- Easy to Print: Retains the user-friendly nature of PLA with stable, consistent printing.
- Freshly Sealed for Quality: Vacuum-packed with desiccant to protect filament performance.
- Fast Shipping & Local Pick-Up: Australia-wide shipping and convenient click & collect option for WA customers.
Practical Applications
- Functional Prototypes: Accurate parts for testing fit and performance.
- Jigs & Fixtures: Rigid and stable for workshop or production use.
- Mechanical Components: Suitable for lightweight, stiff structural parts.
- Display Models with Premium Finish: Ideal where both strength and aesthetics matter.
Storage Recommendations
To keep your filament printing at its best, store it in a cool, dry environment between 15°C and 30°C, with humidity below 20%.
When not in use, place the spool back in its vacuum-sealed bag with desiccant to minimise moisture absorption. If the filament has been exposed to air for extended periods, drying it in a filament dryer before printing can help restore optimal print performance.
For best results, avoid direct sunlight, high temperatures, and dusty environments to maintain smooth feeding and consistent print quality.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Do I need a hardened nozzle for PLA-CF?
Yes, a hardened nozzle is strongly recommended.
Carbon fibre is abrasive and can wear down standard brass nozzles over time. Using a hardened nozzle helps:
- Maintain consistent extrusion
- Protect your hardware
- Ensure long-term print quality
Is PLA-CF harder to print than regular PLA?
Not significantly, it’s still very user-friendly. PLA-CF prints similarly to standard PLA, with:
- Minimal warping
- Good bed adhesion
- No enclosure required
It’s a great option if you want enhanced performance without added complexity.
What is PLA-CF best used for?
PLA-CF is ideal for rigid, lightweight, and precise parts.
Common uses include:
- Jigs and fixtures
- Functional prototypes
- Mechanical components
- Structural parts where stiffness matters
It’s perfect when you need accuracy and rigidity over flexibility.
Why does PLA-CF have a matte finish?
The carbon fibre content creates a natural matte, textured surface.
This finish:
- Reduces visible layer lines
- Gives prints a professional, premium look
- Minimises the need for post-processing
It’s ideal for both functional parts and display-quality prints.
