Looking for good suggestions for suppressor materials. Currently I’ve just been using PLA+ which has worked, just didn’t know if PA6-CF or something infused would work better.

    I’ve had good success with ABS. Deals with heat better than PLA+ and can be printed on stock Ender 3. Edit: Meant to say PLA+ not CF.

      i can second that ABS is a very good midgrade option. It works very well better than PLA+ under nearly all conditions, besides being ever so slightly weaker to shock loads. its is much more resistant to temperature though, so it really does help with suppressors.

        My mistake I do have an enclosure but no other mods. I print at 260C hotend temp 95C bed temp.
