Filaform ASA-CF Filament 1.75MM | 1KG


Best of both worlds

Filaform ASA-CF offers exceptional performance in outdoor applications and high-strength environments, combining the best properties of both ASA and carbon fiber. It's designed to resist UV damage and withstand extreme weather conditions, making it a top choice for both hobbyists and professionals.

 

Advanced Composition for Superior Performance

The filament core is carbon fibre, jacketed with high-quality PLA. This unique cross-section design gives the material increased rigidity and dimensional stability, making it perfect for applications where both strength and weight are critical. This also addresses the handling safety concerns commonly associated with traditional carbon fiber filaments, where the fine, rigid fibers can break off and cause irritation or splinters. The improved filament design, with carbon fibers encased in a PLA jacket, prevents direct exposure to these sharp fibers, making it safer to handle during printing and post-processing without the need for additional protective measures.

 

Key Features

  • Engineered for Outdoor Use: Filaform ASA-CF combines the weatherproof properties of ASA with the added stiffness of carbon fiber, making it ideal for high-performance parts exposed to harsh environments.
  • Dimensional Stability for Large Models: The carbon fiber reinforcement minimizes warping and improves stability, ensuring precision when printing larger models or load-bearing components.
  • Matte Finish for a Premium Look: The inclusion of carbon fiber gives your prints a sleek, matte finish, reducing the visibility of layer lines and delivering a professional aesthetic.
  • Enhanced Rigidity: Carbon fiber provides significantly increased stiffness, making this filament perfect for demanding applications that require strength, such as automotive parts, outdoor equipment, and industrial tools.

 

3D Printing Parameters

  • Nozzle Temperature: 250°C - 280°C
  • Bed Temperature: 80°C - 100°C
  • Recommended Nozzle: Hardened steel or ruby nozzles (minimum 0.4 mm diameter) to withstand the abrasive nature of carbon fibre.
  • Printing Speed: 40 mm/s - 150 mm/s
  • Cooling Fan: ON
  • Build Surfaces: Glass, PEI, BuildTak®, or other textured surfaces.

 

Cautions for Use:

Enclosure Required: For optimal results, printing with an enclosure is strongly recommended.
Hardened Nozzle Required: Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fiber, a hardened steel nozzle is mandatory for use with this filament. Nozzles smaller than 0.4 mm are not compatible.
Dry Filament Before Use: Ensure the filament is properly dried before printing for the best results.
