eSUN ABS CF Carbon Fiber Filament 1kg 1.75mm – High Strength Engineering Grade
eSUN eABS-CF is a carbon fiber reinforced ABS filament engineered for applications demanding exceptional stiffness, strength, and dimensional stability. The carbon fiber infusion delivers superior rigidity with lower density than standard ABS, while the matte finish reduces visible layer lines for a professional appearance.
Ideal for printer parts, industrial fixtures, drone components, and any application where lightweight strength matters. Requires an enclosed printer and hardened steel nozzle due to the abrasive carbon fiber content.
eSUN ABS CF Key Features
- Carbon Fiber Reinforced – Significantly enhanced stiffness and strength
- High Flexural Modulus – 5000 MPa for exceptional rigidity
- Low Density – Lighter than standard ABS (1.10 g/cm³)
- Matte Finish – Reduced layer line visibility
- Chemical Resistant – Withstands oils and common chemicals
- Heat Resistant – Superior thermal performance

ABS CF Printing Tips
- Preheat Chamber – Run enclosed printer 15 minutes before printing.
- Use Adhesive – ABS slurry or specialized bed adhesive recommended.
- Print First Layer Slow – 20-30mm/s for good adhesion.
- Keep Filament Dry – Store with desiccant, dry at 60°C if needed.
- Replace Nozzle – Check for wear every ~500g printed.

eSUN ABS CF FAQ
Q: Why do I need a hardened steel nozzle?
A: Carbon fiber is highly abrasive and will wear through a brass nozzle in just a few prints. Hardened steel or ruby-tipped nozzles are required.
Q: Is ABS CF more brittle than standard ABS?
A: ABS CF is stiffer but has lower elongation (3% vs ~6%). It’s rigid rather than flexible, which is ideal for structural parts but not for impact-absorbing applications.
Q: Can I print ABS CF without an enclosure?
A: Not recommended. Without an enclosure, the temperature differential causes severe warping and layer delamination.
