QIDI PAHT-CF Carbon Fiber Filament for 3D Printing | Qidi Tech Qidi 3D Printer
QIDI TECH PAHT-CF(PPA-CF) 3D Printer Filament
QIDI PAHT-CF(PPA-CF) Filament
QIDI PAHT-CF(PPA-CF) is specially developed for FDM 3D printing process, the substrate is made of QIDI UltraPA (PPA), high-temperature nylon with low moisture absorption, high strength, high abrasion resistance, excellent chemical resistance and high heat resistance, good dimensional stability and no warping during the printing process.
Higher Strength
QIDI TECH PAHT-CF(PPA-CF) Filament's Flex modulus up to 6.9 Gpa. Smart Fiber Reinforced Technology greatly improves the mechanical properties and heat resistance of the material, and releases the internal stress during the printing process through the fiber mesh structure, resulting in good dimensional stability of the printed part.
Temperature and Humidity Resistance
QIDI TECH PAHT-CF(PPA-CF) Filament's have good tensile and flexural strength performance in both wet and dry environments.
Vacuum Aluminum Foil Packaging
According to the test, the water vapor transmission rate of ordinary sealed packaging is 4.76%, while the water vapor transmission rate of vacuum aluminum foil packaging we use is only 0.014%. It can be seen that vacuum aluminum foil packaging is more water-resistant.

Printing Tips
1. PAHT material is very sensitive to moisture. Printing after absorbing moisture will result in ozzing, extruding with bubbles and rough surface appearance, thus reducing print quality. It is recommended that put the filament into a dry box (humidity below 15%) immediately after opening the QIDI PAHT-CF vacuum foil bag for printing. Please put the unused filament back into the original aluminum foil bag for sealed storage.
2. After the printing, the printed part can be annealed to further improve the strength of QIDI PAHT-CF print part. Annealing conditions: place the printed part at 80-100°C for 4-6 hours and cool to room temperature naturally.

- What is PAHT-CF filament? - PAHT-CF filament, also known as PPA-CF, is a special type of filament designed for 3D printing. It is made from QIDI UltraPA, a high-quality nylon that has low moisture absorption. This makes the filament strong and resistant to wear. It is ideal for creating durable items that require good heat resistance.
- Why is low moisture absorption important? - Low moisture absorption means the filament won't soak up water from the air. If filament absorbs too much moisture, it can create problems when printing, like bubbles or rough surfaces. This is why it's best to keep PAHT-CF in a dry place.
- What types of 3D printers can use PAHT-CF? - PAHT-CF filament can be used with many standard FDM 3D printers. Make sure your printer can handle high temperatures, as PAHT-CF needs a hot end temperature of 300-320°C.
- How can I store PAHT-CF filament? - To store PAHT-CF filament properly, keep it in its original sealed package to protect it from moisture. You can also use a dry box if you plan to keep it for a long time.
- What should I do if my print quality is poor? - If you notice poor print quality, check to ensure the filament isn't wet, and that you're using the correct printing temperature and speed. Also, consider using a hardened steel nozzle instead of a brass one.
- Do I need any special accessories for PAHT-CF? - For best results with PAHT-CF filament, it's recommended to use a hardened steel nozzle and a build plate such as QIDI PEI Plate. Avoid brass nozzles as they may not work well.
- Can I print with a smaller nozzle size? - No, it is not recommended to use a nozzle size smaller than 0.4mm with PAHT-CF filament, as this can lead to clogs and poor extrusion quality.
- How do I improve the strength of my printed parts? - You can improve the strength of your printed parts by annealing them. This means heating your completed prints at about 80-100°C for several hours to enhance their strength.
- What are the benefits of using PAHT-CF? - Using PAHT-CF filament gives you strong and durable prints. It is resistant to temperature changes, moisture, and wear, making it perfect for creating functional parts.
- Where can I purchase PAHT-CF filament? - You can buy PAHT-CF filament directly from our site. Just make sure to check for the right specifications.
