CarbonFil - PETG

Available spool sizes 500gm & 2.3kg

Features & Advantages

• High impact resistance
• Unique blend
• Excellent flow behaviour

FormFutura CarbonFil filament is created with our HDglass blend and reinforced with 15% ultra-light and long stringer carbon fibers, resulting in a strong and durable carbon-fiber reinforced 3D printer filament. With twice the stiffness of HDglass and 10% more impact resistance, CarbonFil is a remarkable product.

Unique features

• Reinforced with 15% ultra-lightweight and relatively long carbon fiber stringers
• Extremely stiff – twice as stiff as HDglass (or even more compared to other PETG-based filaments)
• Great impact resistance – 10% more impact resistant than HDglass (or even more compared to other PETG-based filaments)
• Very easy to print – nearly warp-free, improved thermal stability, nearly perfect first layer and inter-layer adhesion
• Good first layer adhesion to a heated glass print bed and many other surfaces
• Heat deflection temperature of ± 85° C
• Great dimensional stability

Printing Guidelines

• Print temp: ± 230 – 265° C
• Heat bed: ± 0 – 85° C
• Layer height: ≥ 0.2mm
• Print speed: Low
• Fan speed: 20-50%
• Flow rate: ± 100%
• Experience level: Beginner
• Adhesion: EasyFix Nr 1
• Nozzle size: => 0.4mm

Abrasiveness

Please be aware that CarbonFil filaments contain a relatively high concentration of extremely hard carbon fibers, which have an abrasive nature. In general these carbon fibers will accelerate the nozzle-wear of brass nozzles, much faster than unfilled filaments. We recommend to use nozzles from stainless steel or other hardened alloys.
