Extreme Carbon Fiber Black Nuclear Nylon v3

Nuclear Nylon v3 is our most demanding filament — and our most rewarding. Engineered from an alloyed PA copolymer resin with adhesion promoters, impact modifiers, and USA-made milled carbon fiber (not powder or dust), it delivers a level of stiffness, strength, and surface quality that standard nylons simply can't match. Parts come out rigid, detailed, and with the distinctive matte-textured look of true carbon fiber composite.

Carbon Fiber Benefits

  • Massive increase to rigidity and strength — ideal for jigs, fixtures, brackets, and structural parts
  • Highly desirable matte-textured surface — professional look straight off the printer
  • Greatly reduced part shrink and warp — more reliable first layers and dimensional accuracy
  • Greatly reduced stringing and angel hairs — cleaner prints with less post-processing
  • Better detail retention and sharp corners — the CF stiffens the melt for crisper geometry

⚠️ Intended for Experienced Nylon Users

Nuclear Nylon v3 must be stored dry and printed dry. Moisture causes weak, failed prints and voids warranty claims. Each spool ships dry and includes a reusable moisture indicator card. If you're new to nylon, we recommend drying the spool before your first print and using a dry-box or sealed enclosure during printing.

Recommended bed surface: warm glass (60°C) coated with PVA or Magigoo.

HEX COLOR: #3F3F3F — per Filamentcolors.xyz. Colors may vary slightly based on print settings and screen calibration.

🔬 Production-Grade Traceability & Quality Control

Every spool of Atomic Filament is manufactured under laser-monitored quality control — measuring diameter and roundness in real time throughout the entire extrusion process. This means every meter of filament meets our tolerance spec, not just a sample at the start of the run.

  • Batch-to-Batch Consistency: Each production run is logged and traceable — critical for jigs, fixtures, and functional end-use parts.
  • Laser Diameter Monitoring: Continuous in-line measurement ensures no weak spots, diameter spikes, or ovality issues that cause clogs or failed prints mid-run.
  • Made in Indiana, USA: Full visibility into our supply chain — from raw resin to finished spool — with no overseas black-box manufacturing.

Quality / Specs

  • Print nozzle temp: 265–285°C
  • Nozzle size: 0.50mm minimum — 0.60mm recommended
  • Print speed: 35–45 mm/sec
  • Bed temp: 60°C — glass with PVA or Magigoo, or other nylon-friendly build surface
  • Diameter tolerance: ±0.04mm or better
  • Roundness (ovality): ±0.04mm or better
  • Note: Abrasive to print nozzles — hardened nozzle recommended
