Industrial-Grade Carbon Fiber Nylon for High-Performance Parts

3DXTech’s Obsidian™ PA6+CF V2 is a next-generation carbon fiber reinforced nylon filament designed for demanding engineering applications. Built on a PA6 (polyamide 6) base and enhanced with carbon fiber, it delivers exceptional strength, rigidity, and thermal resistance while maintaining improved printability compared to traditional nylons.

This filament is ideal for professionals, advanced makers, and production environments that require durable, functional parts with a clean, matte finish.

Key Features & Benefits

• Carbon Fiber Reinforced Strength
  Significantly increased stiffness and structural integrity compared to unfilled nylon.
• Improved Printability vs Standard Nylon
  Reduced warping and better dimensional stability for more reliable prints.
• High Heat Resistance
  Suitable for applications exposed to elevated temperatures.
• Excellent Surface Finish
  Produces a matte black, professional-grade appearance with minimal post-processing.
• Lightweight and Rigid
  Perfect for weight-sensitive parts without sacrificing strength.

Typical Applications

• Functional engineering parts
• Jigs, fixtures, and tooling
• Automotive and motorsport components
• Robotics and drone structures
• Mechanical housings and brackets
• Industrial prototyping and low-volume production

Material & Compatibility Information

Obsidian PA6+CF V2 is a carbon fiber-filled nylon designed for advanced FDM/FFF 3D printing.

• Compatible with most 1.75mm filament printers capable of high-temperature materials
• Works best with all-metal hotends and enclosed or controlled print environments
• Abrasive material – hardened steel or wear-resistant nozzles are required
• Benefits from proper filament drying due to nylon’s moisture sensitivity

Printability Notes:

• Reduced shrinkage compared to standard PA6 nylon
• Strong layer adhesion when printed under proper conditions
• Stable extrusion for consistent, repeatable results

Why Users Choose Obsidian PA6+CF V2

This material is chosen when performance matters more than convenience. It offers a balance of strength, rigidity, and heat resistance that surpasses common filaments like PLA, PETG, or ABS.

• Reliable for load-bearing and functional parts
• Engineered for real-world mechanical use
• Consistent performance in professional workflows
• Trusted for prototyping and end-use components

Build Stronger, Smarter Parts

If your projects demand real mechanical performance, Obsidian PA6+CF V2 provides the material properties to match. Upgrade from standard filaments and produce parts that are built to last.
