Fiberon™ PA612-CF15: Advanced Carbon Fiber Reinforced PA612 Filament
Superior Engineering Performance (Formerly PolyMide™ PA612-CF)
Fiberon™ PA612-CF15 is a carbon fiber reinforced long-chain copolyamide (PA612) filament designed for high-performance engineering applications. Its unique chemical structure results in significantly lower moisture sensitivity than traditional PA6/66 and PA6-based nylons, while offering better mechanical properties than PA12-based materials.
Key Features and Advantages
- Low Moisture Sensitivity: Maintains dimensional accuracy and mechanical strength, even in humid environments, reducing the need for frequent drying.
- Enhanced Mechanical Properties: Outperforms PA12-based filaments in tensile strength, stiffness, and durability, making it ideal for demanding functional parts.
- Carbon Fiber Reinforcement: 15% carbon fiber content delivers excellent rigidity, high strength, and improved thermal stability.
- Warpfree™ Technology: Proprietary formulation minimizes warping and enhances print size stability, even on large or complex parts.
- Consistent Quality: Fiberon™ PA612-CF15 is the same trusted formula as PolyMide™ PA612-CF, though it may print in a slightly darker black shade.
Ideal for Industrial and Engineering Applications
Perfect for automotive, aerospace, robotics, jigs, fixtures, and end-use components where dimensional stability, moisture resistance, and mechanical performance are critical.
Choose Fiberon™ PA612-CF15 for your most demanding projects when you need a carbon fiber nylon that combines low moisture sensitivity, superior mechanical properties, and exceptional print reliability.
Fiberon™ PA612-CF15 is the same great formula as PolyMide PA612-CF, although Fiberon™ PA612-CF15 may print in a slightly darker black shade color than its predecessor.

Printing Tips
- Use a wear-resistant nozzle, such as hardened steel or ruby, because the carbon-fiber reinforcement is abrasive.
- Store and print under dry conditions (relative humidity below 20%); dry at 100°C for 10 hours before use.
- Use a 40-50°C build plate, and turn the cooling fan OFF; an actively heated chamber is not required.
- Use glue stick or Magigoo PA if bed adhesion is weak.
- If the material is used as its own support, remove the support before excessive moisture absorption to avoid permanent bonding.
- Anneal at 100°C for 16 hours when the annealed performance stated in the TDS is required.

Reviews
Customers praised this carbon fiber-reinforced nylon for "excellent strength and impact resistance" with "zero warping" and "dimensionally perfect prints." Many noted it requires proper drying and printer calibration for best results. Popular for demanding applications including tools and functional parts. Minor feedback mentioned limited spool size options.
Great filament
I have continually used this filament for a car modification that is continually subjected to temps upward of 180 F in the middle of summer. I have not had any melting, warping, or other undesired effects. This material constantly exceeds my expectations!
High quality easy to print and mechanically strong filament can be used to make gears for rc cars and they last a long time no issues ! It’s just the best of the best!
Incredibly strong and yet super easy to print, and the print quality is unbelievable! amazing stuff!
Noice :-)
You guys always have the best filaments thats why i keep buying for you, perfect for all my applications.
amazing filament, super stong for any aplication
Easy introduction to PA printing and it looks amazing. Supports are easily removable with minimal tuning, no issues with warping, and the parts are incredibly strong. The only reason it is 4/5 stars is due to not having the option to buy a full kg spool or even 2kg or 3kg bulk option. It makes printing a series of prints more convoluted than needed due to having to account for every limited gram on the roll and doubles the end of roll waste unless you have a system with a multi-material unit.
One of the best nylon carbon fiber filaments to print with but unfortunately. Almost every spool when printing when you’ve used 25-30% of the spool the filament will get pinched against the inner side wall of the cardboard spool resulting in a very he printer finishing with an unfinished print. Right now I’ve purchased over 20 of the .5kg rolls and about 7-8 of the 3kg rolls.
I’m not sure if cardboard is chosen for pricing or being environmentally friendly but it’s not working when I have to respool or throw away unused filament!
We are very sorry for the issues here! This should not be happening! Can you reach out to support@Polymaker.com with order details and further information so we can look into this?
This is by far my favorite nylon to print. Prints come out looking amazing and seems to be a little more forgiving and easy to print than some of the other nylons. You DEFINITELY need to dry it before printing even if it's a brand new spool.
This is my go to filament if I want something that is light weight and stiff. This stuff prints very well, great dimensional stability and the parts look great with the slightly rough surface finish.
Great material, prints fast and clean. No issues that wasn’t my fault.
This is some amazing filament. Incredibly strong and I've been getting beatiful print quality on my P1S. I'd say it handles overhangs better than some PLA I've worked with. Only complaint is it will absorb some moisture over time. I once had it in a drybox that was heated for about 3 days and some holes came out undersized and I could see the affects of the moisture on the print quality. Great price - will continue to buy!
Ich war schon seit der ersten Rolle Panchroma PLA Matte begeistert von Polymaker aber das PA612-CF hat meine Begeisterung noch mal deutlich gesteigert. Dank des Druckprofils von Fiberon/Polymaker ist es super einfach auf dem P2S zu drucken. Lediglich einen Temp-Tower sollte man drucken um die beste Temperatur für sich und das Filament zu finden. Nach dem auspacken ging die Rolle direkt in den AMS HT wo mir eine Restfeuchte von 8% angezeigt wurde, was mega gut ist.
Ich bestelle nur noch Filamente von Polymaker/Fiberon :)
Fehlt nur noch ein PPA-CF im Sortiment welches auch ein Drucker wie der P2S von schafft den Temperaturen her.
I have been very happy with the strength and impact resistance of this material. It is one of my go to filaments now for difficult applications.
5star
is my opinion of this filament. Do with that what you will.
This has reignited my passion for printing. The results after an after couple hours of dialing in the settings have been breathtaking, and I have been printing for over 5 years. The products I have made using this Fiberon filament feels better in the hand, it is good to produce something that can really last.
This is by far my favorite filament for my applications. I live in a very humid environment (Louisiana) and I love the wet properties that you get with this filament. I will choose this over pa6cf any time.
This stuff is amazing!
I run a small business and only use Fiberon. Specifically the PA612-CF or PA6-CF
Easy to print (as far as PA goes), great results using the recommended settings. I'm using it to print tools, parts, and jigs where PETG just doesn't cut it and if you truly dislike printing ABS (as I do)
Amazing product beyond happy with the quality. MUST keep dry.
In my limited opinion the most durable filament to print under 300C
Great price for what it is.
It Takes a 'LOT" to impress me and the Plastic Polymaker PA 612 really gets it together!.Now Nylon is One of the Hardest Things to print right, But its also rewarding as if done right it makes some of the hardest parts ever!...Its an Exceptional Filament and for real as it can take real punishment, But its fairly easy to print and makes some good parts without exception!.In short its a specialty plastic as frankly not everyone needs a Workpiece super hard , And its a Higher priced Item tho there are others more costly!.But out of like 30 differing and yes costly plastic from different firms only 3 outa some 30 odd plastics pass the Supreme Test which is where i just simply jump up and down on the finished part and it 'DONT' break!.Seriously This Is Some Really Good stuff as I'm 165 and I cant just break it, So this stuff its that good!.PLUSES:It is really Super Hard stuff!.It has a slight flexibility so its not 'Too Likely' to just crack or fall apart!.Unless you go crazy with Heat its not real great on warping!...It may not be right for all applications, Like Marine use as Nylons will absorb Water but for Parts!.,..MINUSES:Its Good Even Excellent but its costly tho It will meet a need!.It like other 'Hard Plastics' It can be can be hard, To dial in but its workable!...Like any other Tool it depends on your Skill level, Plus your willingness to Adapt!.Now my first Test Part was junk! My Second was passable, But i still needed Help then i remembered a Tip from an earlier reviewer that at times if you 'Cant' get something dialed in you can use CURA profiles to find a workable answer.OK I tried several but the one that seemed to work best with My Printer an Ender 3max was:Emotion Tech Nylon 1070!.The Basics seemed close enough to work as i only changed a couple of factors but here are the Specifics!.SPEED 45Heat Start at 261, then afterthe 1st layer run the part at 258!BED Start at 65!After the 1st layer drop to 50 or 55!...Speed is what works best for your Machine tho im doing well at!SPEED 40 to 45!.....I heat dry my plastic, and let my Printer warm up on ABM settings for about a half hour!.And run the Filament in straight and hot from the dryer and im getting some nice parts!.Its a Great Plastic once you learn to use it!.....Hope this Helps!IndianaED.....
What are some good settings for me to use this filament using Prusaslicer? I’ve dried the filament, prints decent, but I do have some heavy strings/artifacts.
Using a .6 nozzle, and Core One L.
