Fiberon™ PA6-CF20: High-Strength Carbon Fiber Reinforced Nylon 6 Filament (Formerly PolyMide™ PA6-CF)
Engineered for Demanding Applications
Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 is a carbon fiber reinforced PA6 (Nylon 6) filament containing 20% carbon fiber, designed for exceptional mechanical strength, stiffness, and heat resistance. The carbon fiber reinforcement dramatically improves rigidity and dimensional stability, making it ideal for functional prototypes, industrial tooling, automotive, and composite manufacturing applications.
Outstanding Performance Features
- Exceptional Strength & Stiffness: Tensile strength up to 109 MPa and Youngs modulus over 8.6 GPa (XY), providing robust, rigid parts.
-
High Heat Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 215°C, suitable for parts exposed to high thermal loads.
-
Superior Layer Adhesion: Fiber Adhesion™ technology ensures strong interlayer bonding and cohesive, durable prints.
- Dimensional Stability: Minimal warping and excellent size stability, even on large or complex prints.
- Chemical Resistance: Suitable for use in chemically aggressive environments.
Easy to Print for Advanced Users
While engineered for high performance, Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 is optimized for reliable printing on advanced FDM/FFF 3D printers equipped with an all-metal hotend and a hardened nozzle due to the abrasive carbon fiber content. Filament drying and post-print annealing are recommended for best results.
Same Trusted Formula, New Name
Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 is the same proven formula as PolyMide™ PA6-CF, though it may print in a slightly darker black shade than its predecessor.
Choose Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 for parts that demand maximum strength, heat resistance, and durability in industrial and engineering environments.
Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 is the same great formula as PolyMide PA6-CF, although Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 may print in a slightly darker black shade color than its predecessor.

Technical Specifications
Everything you need before you hit print
- Use a wear-resistant nozzle, such as hardened steel or ruby; the TDS notes that brass-nozzle life may be approximately 9 hours.
- 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.

Customers praise this nylon filament for exceptional strength and durability, noting it "prints beautifully" with consistent quality. Reviews highlight excellent heat and impact resistance, ideal for demanding applications. While shoppers note it requires proper settings and drying (24hrs at 70°C recommended), they say it's "worth every penny" and "the absolute best for the price."
Great quality as always. Prints beautifully
Parfait,
Un échange avec le service expérience m’a amené à acheter le PA6-CF pour la fabrication de mes nouveaux projets, les test de résistance sont encore en cours mais les attentes sont respectées.
Simplement parfait
Takes a while to get dialed in (look up 300BLK FDE settings), then it's perfection.
We use Fiberon PAS-CF20 for some of our heaviest used components, and the parts come out clean, durable and reliable every time. Highly recommend it!
Polymaker processed our order correctly and promptly. We appreciate their quality service.
Well packed, quick shipping, quality product resulting in quality functional prints.It's not cheap,but when it comes to printing parts you rely on,you gget what you pay for.
Used for printing a new toolhead cover for my printer to get better part cooling. Printed super clean with bridging being decent. First bridge layer sagged but the rest held up very well. Printed on a K1 Max with a hardened steel unicorn nozzle at 60mm/s with nozzle at 290c and bed at 40c. The filament is pretty stiff and a bit brittle so definitely try to avoid bends on the way to the nozzle. Straight from the packagin I put it in a dryer at 70c and printed straight away so I'm sure I could get even better results if I dried it for longer.
Prints perfect
My nylon of choice. Always consistent. Easy to use, with the right equipment that is. I'd print everything in it if I could afford to.
Priced right and prints good once you get your settings dialed in.
Models came out great
Good stuff!
Great!!!! The absolute best you can get for the price
Printed great straight out of the packaging. No drying needed.
Prints so good, The finish is really clean even though I usually have issues with my printer. It's open chamber too, but after annealing it's way more durable and heat resistant than my painted pla+ stuff
I use this for 2A parts where I need high heat and impact resistance. Works great for the application. Prints without any issues on a regular Bambu A1 without an enclosure. The key is to dry it for at least 24 hrs at 70 C and print it at 300 C. You wont be dissapointed.
Love Polymaker products and shipped to my door within 24 hrs
I use fiberon PA6-CF20 to print premium products for my customers. Decently stiff and extremely tough. This brand is also the most reliable in my experience. Good customer service too.
Title says it all. Prints amazingly well and this stuff is amazing. I don't think I have ever printed something that came out as tough as this before!
This filament is very strong and tough. It is fairly difficult to print but is absolutely worth it. I strongly recommend it.
Made the switch away from Siraya Techs ppa-cf which warped every time during annealing and was brittle. This pa6-cf is unmatched by any nylon I have ever used no warping if you keep bed temp low. Zero warping during annealing. Very strong and impact resistant so far. Nothing but good things here.
Great stuff from polymaker as always. This is my go to filament for nylon with no issues. I normally print this from an Ender 3V3 KE, harden steel nozzle or bimetal, 293 nozzle temp with a 55 degree bed temp on a raft. Thanks again polymaker for a great product.
Best filament for automotive and 2A Use
