Jabil PA 4535 CF
Jabil PA 4535 CF
PA 4535 CF is among the strongest PA6 co-polymer carbon fiber filaments available on the market, delivering increased strength and stiffness.
Typical applications for PA 4535 CF are aluminum replacement parts, housings that require tight printing dimensional tolerances, clips, brackets, retainers, covers, in addition to jigs, fixtures, and tooling.
Advantages
It has the highest carbon fiber loading available in the industry, providing 40% improvement in tensile strength, impact strength, Z strength and elongation at break, with the added benefit of being ESD safe.
PA 4535 CF is among the strongest PA6 co-polymer carbon fiber filaments available on the market, delivering increased strength and stiffness.
It is highly hygroscopic, meaning it will quickly absorb and retain moisture from the atmosphere, affecting visual quality and mechanical properties. For best results, print and store filament in a dry environment. If necessary, dry filament in an oven at up to 75 °C (165 °F) for 6 – 12 hours.
Due to its high stiffness, material feeding may be challenging near the end of the spool or when the filament is very dry. Pre-heating the filament or allowing the filament to absorb a small amount of moisture from the atmosphere will make it more workable.
