UltiMaker Nylon CF Slide is a next-generation composite filament designed for demanding motion and wear applications. Based on a Nylon 6,12 copolymer and reinforced with carbon fiber, this material offers exceptional tribological performance, including low friction against steel and long-lasting wear resistance. Withstanding temperatures up to 180°C (post-annealing) and delivering Z-strength above 40 MPa, it’s a powerful alternative to traditional materials like POM—without the use of PFAS.
Optimized for movement and friction-heavy environments, Nylon CF Slide excels in applications where sliding contact is frequent. It’s ideal for jigs, guides, bushings, and other functional parts that require extended service life and low friction against stainless steel.

For educators and professionals looking to simulate or replace POM (acetal), UltiMaker Nylon CF Slide offers a sustainable and easy-to-print option. It delivers comparable wear resistance and low-friction performance, while remaining PFAS-free and fully compatible with Ultimaker S Series printers.
With its matte finish and engineered surface texture, UltiMaker Nylon CF Slide ensures a consistent, professional look. Whether designing parts for automation, robotics, or motion-based assemblies, this material enhances efficiency, reduces maintenance, and increases part longevity—perfect for engineering labs, technical training centers, or production simulations.
