Fiberthree · F3 PA-CF Pro (5501)
A carbon-fibre reinforced polyamide filament from the German manufacturer Fiberthree, developed explicitly for industrial use. Fiberthree publishes properties measured on printed specimens – the exception rather than the rule in the filament market.
Rated 1 to 5 relative to the other materials in our range. This is an experience-based orientation aid, not a measured value – the hard numbers are in the table below.

The manufacturer determined these values on printed specimens rather than injection-moulded ones, which makes them considerably more meaningful than typical datasheet figures. Note the orientations given: values in the layer plane (X, or XY and XZ) are considerably higher than those across the layers (Z, or ZX). Part orientation has to match the load direction – we are happy to advise.
“Qualified for functional parts” is a general classification. A functional part can be a simple clip or a main load-bearing member – the forces and load cases differ fundamentally. We therefore always assess in each individual case whether a material is suitable for your part.
