Non Standard Spool
Rated with 1 out of 5 stars.
Annoying.
The spool is much wider than all other spools I have (several different manufacturers) and does not fit into my Eibos filament drier. So before I can actually use, the filament will have to re-spooled onto an old Prusament spool.
I can't see any reason for the wide spool - yes it looks nice with the curved outer faces but must surely be more expensive than a flat faced spool. Doubtless the additional cost of the spool is added to the cost of the already expensive material. No benefit to the consumer.
So, at present, only one star because since I can't even try using until I re-spool the material. I'll revisit this review once I'm able to print something.Was this rating helpful? (2) (6)

Great finish and strong
Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
Not an easy to print filament. Had to dry it first after opening, then overall quality increased substantially.

Fiberlogy PA12 + CF15
Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
This material is fantastic. Almost zero warping even without an enclosure, incredibly strong, very stiff when used at 5mm thicknesses. This is my favourite material and have used it successfully in multiple applications including automotive oil cooler ducting, automotive air/oil seperator and even for competitive shooting accessories.
If you have never printed with engineering grade materials before, start here and you won't regret it.
I print at 0.16mm layer height, 270c nozzle 100c bed (90c for larger parts as bed adhesion seems to be proportional to bed temp), 30-45mm/s print speed, 25mm/s retraction speed with a Zodiac Pro 0.4mm nozzle on a direct drive converted Ender 3 MAXWas this rating helpful? (3) (0)

Very nice print on first try
Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
I bought this earlier this year but decided to wait until my printer was fully enclosed before making an attempt to use it. This is the very first time I've tried printing with nylon cf. Well I have to say it printed perfectly. No warping, good layer adhesion, came out a really strong part. After reading so many horror stories about nylon I was very happy with the result. Here's my settings should anyone find them useful:
Enclosed printer, bed at 90 on first layer, then 80.
260 on nozzle.
Initial layer at 20 m/s then 40 m/s.
8 mm. brim.
My printer's chamber is not actively heated, so I waited for temp inside to reach ~40 deg from the heat from the bed before starting to print.
Print surface was TwoTrees PEI covered in glue stick.Was this rating helpful? (7) (4)

Much easier to print than normal nylon
Rated with 4 out of 5 stars.
Much easier to print compared to the non carbon fiber version. However when you add the CF it is not as unbreakable as the normal nylon. Perfect for larger models.

Surprisingly easy to print!
Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
I have a Qidi X-Plus 3D Printer with a PEI build plate and use Magigoo PA: Fiberology Nylon PA12 + CF15 is probably one of the easiest materials to print, it's just as easy as printing PLA! I'm printing at 265/80 C, no warping, sticks well to the buildplate, I've been able to print small parts (10 pcs of 20x10 mm) with no failure so far. The surface is a little rough and not as smooth as other materials and thus fine details is are not as "sharp", but at the same time, prints look less 3D printed as layers are not as visible. Tip: I saw someone complaining that the spool didn't fit in their dryer, but the exterior has white sides that are snapped on and they can be removed.
