BASF Ultrafuse® PAHT CF15

BASF Ultrafuse® PAHT CF15 is an industrial-grade filament with a special formulation consisting of a polyamide base and a 15% addition of micro-carbon fibers. Thanks to that, the filament combines the durability of nylon with rigidity of carbon fiber, while still retaining easy processability.

This high-performance filament shows high stiffness, high dimensional stability, and chemical resistance. What’s more, PAHT CF15 withstands the temperatures reaching up to 145 °C. The filament is a perfect fit for projects in engineering, robotics, automotive, aerospace, and other industries working in harsh conditions.

BASF Ultrafuse PAHT CF15 has strong abrasive properties, therefore, a hardened steel nozzle with a diameter of 0.6 mm should be used when 3D printing.

VISE JAWS. The material's high stiffness made it possible to 3D print functional vice jaws for a real workshop.

Applications

  • Parts exposed to oils, greases, brake fluids
  • Parts exposed to stresses, such as brackets and shafts
  • End-use parts in the automotive industry, such as elements in the engine compartment or air intake
  • Shock-resistant frames and enclosures for drones
  • Tooling equipment, such as vise jaws
  • Jigs and assembly/alignment fixtures

High stiffness

PAHT CF15 filament combines high durability and stiffness with chemical resistance. Such features make it an excellent choice for parts exposed to stresses and chemicals in multiple industries.

Industrial applications

Thanks to the material's special composition, that is polyamide with a 15% addition of carbon fibers, 3D prints can withstand tough conditions of extensive tests. The filament is also suitable for rigid jigs or fixtures, as well as end-use parts in automotive or engineering.

Very good printability

Despite its advanced formulation, PAHT CF15 remains very easy to process with 3D printers equipped with specially hardened steel nozzle. That's why both advanced users and hobbyists can benefit from the filament's very good printability in a variety of projects.
