PLA-CF
Chopped carbon fibre in a PLA matrix: stiffer, flatter, and matte black through the whole cross section. It is a stiffness upgrade, not a strength upgrade.
Best for
- Jigs and fixtures that must not flex
- Drone and RC frames
- Camera and tripod hardware
Watch out
Brittle. Carbon fibre raises modulus and lowers impact tolerance at the same time.

The properties on this page are values published in the named manufacturers' data sheets, measured on their grades to the standard printed against each row — not measurements of a ZORVA spool. Use them to compare material classes, not as an acceptance specification.
Passport
Ships with the spool. Published before you buy.
The same record on the label, on this page and in the box. Batch number included, so a bad print can be traced to a specific run.
