Yiqiu3D PLA-CF Carbon Fiber Filament 1.75mm 1KG Rigid Dimensionally Stable

Brand: Yiqiu3D · Model: PLA CF5Black,PLA CF10Black · Soft, flexible parts that sag under load are useless for structural work. Yiqiu3D PLA-CF10 carbon fiber PLA is rigid and dimensionally stable, so brackets, jigs and drone parts hold their shape and stay stiff where standard PLA flexes.

  • Carbon-fiber black is a statement finish
  • Engineering parts live or die by dimensional accuracy. The carbon fiber reinforcement keeps shrinkage low and dimensions predictable
  • Exotic composites usually mean exotic setup. This PLA-CF prints like an easy PLA at the listed 220°C and works with 0.4mm or 0.6mm nozzles on Bambu Lab and Creality machines

Quick Answer

Why does carbon fiber make PLA more rigid and stable?

Carbon fiber is short, stiff fiber blended into the PLA matrix. The fibers dramatically raise stiffness and reduce thermal shrinkage, so parts resist bending and stay dimensionally accurate under load. This is why PLA-CF is a go-to for functional brackets and structural prototypes.

01 · Why this one

Product highlights

3 reasons

Carbon-fiber black is a statement finish, and this filament delivers: deep matte black with a fine carbon texture that hides layer lines and fingerprints, giving parts a machined, high-end look straight off the print bed.

Engineering parts live or die by dimensional accuracy. The carbon fiber reinforcement keeps shrinkage low and dimensions predictable, so press-fit and mating parts come out right the first time, print after print.

Exotic composites usually mean exotic setup. This PLA-CF prints like an easy PLA at the listed 220°C and works with 0.4mm or 0.6mm nozzles on Bambu Lab and Creality machines, with no heated enclosure required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does carbon fiber make PLA more rigid and stable?
Carbon fiber is short, stiff fiber blended into the PLA matrix. The fibers dramatically raise stiffness and reduce thermal shrinkage, so parts resist bending and stay dimensionally accurate under load. This is why PLA-CF is a go-to for functional brackets and structural prototypes.
Will carbon fiber PLA damage my standard nozzle?
Carbon fiber is abrasive. A standard brass 0.4mm nozzle wears faster; use a hardened steel nozzle for long life. The card specifies 0.4mm/0.6mm nozzles as supported, so upgrading the nozzle keeps print quality consistent.
What nozzle and temperature settings should I use?
Print at 220°C as listed with a bed of 50-60°C. Use a 0.4mm or 0.6mm hardened nozzle, and avoid extreme retraction settings because the fiber-filled melt is less elastic than plain PLA.
How long does a 1KG PLA-CF roll last?
A 1KG spool of 1.75mm filament holds roughly 330 meters. Functional parts like brackets and mounts typically use 15-40g each, so a roll supports many projects depending on infill and part size.
What does the printed black surface look like?
The surface is matte black with a subtle carbon texture. Layer lines are much less visible than on glossy PLA, and the finish resists fingerprints, giving parts a professional, machined appearance without sanding or coating.
What print speed works best for carbon fiber PLA?
A safe window is 40-80mm/s with a 0.4mm nozzle and 60-90mm/s with a 0.6mm nozzle. Slightly slower speeds improve surface quality and dimensional accuracy on mating parts.
Is PLA-CF suitable for functional end-use parts?
Yes. Its stiffness, dimensional stability and clean surface make it suitable for final functional parts such as brackets, mounts, drone frames, jigs and tooling aids, provided the operating temperature stays within PLA range.
How is the filament packaged and stored?
Spools are vacuum-sealed with desiccant to keep the fiber-filled filament dry. Store in a sealed bag or dry box, and dry before printing if exposed to humidity for long periods, since moisture degrades the melt quality.
