About

SLS PA6 Carbon Fiber is a high-performance nylon composite reinforced with carbon fibers to deliver exceptional stiffness, strength, and thermal stability. When produced via Selective Laser Sintering, the material forms dense, highly rigid parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and minimal deformation, making it suitable for demanding mechanical and structural applications. The carbon reinforcement significantly increases tensile modulus and heat resistance compared to unfilled PA6, enabling reliable performance under load, impact, and elevated temperatures.
As printed, PA6 Carbon Fiber parts exhibit a matte black to dark charcoal finish with a fine, uniform SLS texture. The surface shows subtle fiber-reinforced micro-granularity often associated with carbon composite parts, offering both a technical appearance and excellent functional durability. Components benefit from reduced warping, enhanced stiffness-to-weight ratio, and outstanding dimensional stability.
Typical end uses include automotive housings, UAV and robotics components, jigs and fixtures, brackets, enclosures, load-bearing structures, and high-temperature functional prototypes. Overall, SLS PA6 Carbon Fiber combines the robustness of engineering nylon with the performance boost of carbon fiber, making it a top choice for strong, lightweight, end-use parts.
