The max bed temperature of 60°C is below the recommended 90°C for ABS-CF. Adhesion may be poor without additional bed adhesion aids.
| Filament Nozzle Requirement | 240-260°C |
| Printer Max Nozzle | 260°C |
| Filament Bed Requirement | 90-110°C |
| Printer Max Bed | 60°C |
What to do instead
- Your printer's bed maxes out at 60°C, but ABS-CF needs at least 90°C for reliable adhesion.
- Try a compatible filament for your Monoprice MP Select Mini — PLA, PETG, and ABS are good options.
- If you need ABS-CF specifically, you'll need a printer with a hotend capable of 240°C+ nozzle.

ABS-CF at a Glance
Strengths
- Much stiffer than standard ABS with less warping
- Good heat resistance (similar to ABS, HDT ~100C)
- Professional matte black finish
- Better dimensional accuracy than plain ABS
- Ideal for functional parts needing rigidity and heat resistance
Weaknesses
- Requires hardened steel nozzle (carbon fibers destroy brass)
- Enclosure required (emits fumes like ABS)
- More brittle than standard ABS (reduced impact resistance)
- Use 0.5mm+ nozzle to avoid clogging from fibers
- Poor UV resistance (same as ABS, consider ASA-CF for outdoor use)
