What Is Carbon Fiber PLA? Carbon Fiber Reinforced PLA is a wonderful material, strong, lightweight, excellent layer adhesion and low warpage. It has excellent layer adhesion and low warpage. Carbon Fiber PLA strength is hiagh compare to other 3d printing materials. Carbon Fiber filament isn't 'stronger' likewise other 3D materials, rather, it is more rigid. Increased rigidity from the carbon fiber means increased structural support but decreased overall flexibility. It is slightly more brittle then regular PLA When printed, this material is a dark glossy black that glitters slightly in direct light.
