Adura™ X
- Carbon fiber-reinforced Nylon
- Strong prints for high performance environments
- Unique surface finish (hides layer lines)
Add North’s Adura™ X is a carbon fiber reinforced Nylon filament that’s extremely tough in several aspects. It’s highly wear, chemical and UV-resistant with a working temperature of up to 110°C. Layer adhesion is excellent, making this filament highly suited for advanced technical applications.
Adura™ X is a popular filament amongst manufacturers and is often used for 3D-printing end use parts. Except excellent material properties, Adura™ X provides a surface finish that’s second to none – you have to inspect the part closely to notice that it’s 3D-printed.
The carbon fibers make Adura™ X stiffer and less prone to shrinkage, but it is still not too stiff in order to maintain Nylon's extreme impact resistance and part of its flexibility. It’s a highly abrasive filament that requires a hardened steel nozzle or equivalent. Nozzle X works very well for printing all our abrasive filaments.

Adura™ X, together with all our other filaments, are made in Sweden and have a diameter tolerance of ±0.025mm.
Adura™ X is available in 500g and 1000g spool sizes in 1.75mm and 2.85mm diameter.
