Fiberon™ PA6-CF20 is a carbon fiber reinforced PA6 (Nylon 6) filament. The carbon fiber reinforcement provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance with outstanding layer adhesion.
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.

What is annealing?

What is moisture conditioning?
Moisture conditioning refers to allowing the print to absorb moisture. This is inevitble since nylons are hygroscopic, but you can expedite the process by keeping the print in a high humidity climate, or submerging them in water, for 48 hours. All of our test specimens were annealed at 100ËšC for 16 hours, and then immerged in water at 60ËšC for 48 hours. The average moisture content of specimens is 2.57%.
Should I anneal before or after moisture conditioning?
When you anneal in a convection oven, you will dry the part out. So if you moisture condition before annealing - you will need to moisture condition again after. So we would suggest to moisture condition after annealing.
Why do you use such a low build plate temperature with your nylons?
Our nylons come with our Warp-Free™ Technology. In order for this Warp-Free™ technology to work as it should - we want to make sure the build plate and the ambient air temperatures are both below 50˚C. We then anneal the print after to get it's full strength.

Will the spools work in an AMS?
Yes! We have redesigned the edges of our spools so all Polymaker products will now spin great in the AMS.
That said - you will need to be careful when using any abrasive materials in the AMS.
