PET-CF 1.75mm 1kg 3D Printer Filament

Elevate your 3D printing projects with our premium PET-CF filament. This high-performance material is reinforced with 15% chopped carbon fiber, providing exceptional mechanical properties and durability. Ideal for demanding applications, PET-CF offers optimum creep resistance and high heat resistance, ensuring your prints maintain their shape and performance under long-term loads. The semi-crystalline properties combines the beneficial properties of PET and carbon fibers, resulting in a material that offers high strength, stiffness, and thermal stability, making it ideal for high-performance 3D printing applications.

Key Features:

  • Excellent Mechanical Properties: The 15% carbon fiber reinforcement delivers superior strength and stiffness. Semi-crystalline
  • Optimum Creep Resistance: Maintains shape and performance under prolonged stress.
  • High Heat Resistance: Suitable for high-temperature applications, ensuring stability and durability.
  • Mechanical Properties:
    • X-Y Tensile Strength: 85 MPa
    • Z-Axis Tensile Strength: 35 MPa
    • X-Y Bending Modulus: 5300 MPa
    • Heat Deformation Temperature: 148℃ (0.45 MPa)

Printing Guidelines:

  • Extrusion Temperature: 280℃ – 320℃
  • Bed Temperature: 60℃ – 80℃
  • Cooling Fan: Off

Note: Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fibre, it is recommended to use a hardened steel nozzle to prevent excessive wear.

Annealing PET-CF parts increases the material’s crystallinity, enhancing structural integrity and durability. However, this process may cause slight shrinkage, so it’s important to account for dimensional changes during design.
