Description
DREMC PA12 CF Filament 1.75mm 1kg offers a high-performance blend of polyamide 12 reinforced with carbon fibre, delivering superior strength, toughness, and chemical resistance. This filament is engineered for precision and durability, ideal for demanding industrial applications and functional prototypes. Its low moisture absorption and excellent dimensional stability ensure consistent printing results. Less sensitive moisture sensitive compare to PA6 CF or PA66.
Materials Features/Applications:
- LUVOCOM® PA12 with added Carbon Fibre (contain chopped CF <10%)
- Excellent dimensional stability during printing.
- High stiffness and mechanical performance with lower moisture sensitivity than PA6 or PA612
- Industrial PA12-CF displays outstanding properties even after moisture conditioning or saturation compare to PA6-CF

- Vacuum sealed bag with an additional re-usable mylar bag
-
Diameter: 1.75mm (+/- 0.05mm)
- Net weight: 1KG
-
Density: 1.15g/cm3
-
Empty Plastic Spool: ~140g
Printing Settings
A wear resistant nozzle must be used, carbon fiber material is abrasive and will wear standard brass nozzles and >0.5mm nozzle is recommended.
For best results, dry filament using a filament drier before use or print from dryer running or dry box. Keep in an airtight container or included mylar bag for medium/long term storage with silica desiccant. [If you hear popping or inconsistent extrusion while purging filament, suggest drying before printing for best results] Filament Drying Guide

Avoid printing from AMS for better reliability, print from dry box or dryer, see above printing specific tips.

| Nozzle Temperature | 270°C - 300°C (~290°C & Low part cooling is recommended for strength parts)* |
|---|---|
| Build Plate Temperature | 80°C - 100°C |
| Build Surface Material | Works well with most common build surfaces. We recommended PEI Build Plate (Texture suitable), smooth PEI with PVA/Bed Adhesive such as Magigoo. |
| Build Surface Treatment | Typically none required. Some surfaces such as glass work best with PVA glue stick or Magigoo. |
| Cooling Fan | LOW-MEDIUM for better surface quality OFF-LOW (<10%) for better strength |
| Enclosure / Heater Chambers |
Recommended for complex larger geometries. Recommend VOC/Air Filtering or print in well ventilated room |
| Printing Speed | 30 mm/s - 200 mm/s |
| Retraction | The ideal retraction settings vary from printer to printer. If you find the retraction settings are causing gaps in your part, the following settings may help. Direct Drive: Retraction distance of 0.5 - 1mm with retraction speed of 20mm/s Bowden: Retraction distance of 2 - 3mm with retraction speed of 20 - 40mm/s |
| Drying Recommendation | ~70°c for 8-12hr (Only dry if filament is wet, over drying/repeat drying can damage filament) REQUIRE PRINTED CLAMP WHEN DRYING (Filament Dryer Guide) |
| Storage | Keeping filament in an airtight container or provided Mylar bag with new/dried desiccant. |
| Support Material | Single Extrusion: Self Support |
Note: Due to the low co-efficient of friction please ensure you have smooth filament path from filament box/dryer. We recommended 3x4mm PTFE to be used for reverse bowden.
Based on 0.5/0.6 mm nozzle. Printing conditions may vary with different printers and nozzle diameters.
* As always you should do temperature to tower as each machine printing temperature may vary depending on hotend/printing speed etc.
Spool Size:
- Spool Diameter: 200mm (+/-1mm)
