NEW! FIBERLOGY PCTG+CF10 Sample Size 15-25g - Professional Carbon Fiber Copolyester Filament Sample, 1.75mm
PCTG+CF10 Sample size Key Features: For engineers and technical designers, Fiberlogy PCTG+CF properties' combine efficiency and technical excellence for new possibilities in 3D printing Excellent chemical resistance (see TDS below for detailed resistances) Improved stiffness, tensile strength, and chemical and heat resistance Carbon finish which hides the layers perfectly Easy to print with dimensional stability, and low shrinkage making this material great for beginners as well as more advanced professionals PCTG+CF FILAMENT – PCTG WITH THE POWER OF CARBON PCTG+CF filament is a revolutionary combination of the versatility of PCTG and unique properties of carbon fiber (CF). The well-known PCTG filament has been enriched with 10% of carbon. This way, the material is much more stiff. Additionally, greater tensile strength in comparison with pure PCTG makes this filament a good choice for designs requiring increased strength. For engineers and designers who need a material which combines efficiency and technical excellence, PCTG+CF filament is the answer to these requirements, which paves the way for new possibilities in 3D printing. Another advantage of this 3D printing filament is its reduced shrinkage. This makes it perfect for precision designs, especially for models with a complex geometry. The possibility to use Fiberlogy PCTG+CF in open 3D printers additionally enhances its versatility, allowing to use in different machines. Please note as well that PCTG+CF filament offers an esthetic aspect in the form of carbon finish of the print. For 3D printing enthusiasts and professional users who value visual appearance and functionality equally, this filament is an excellent combination of these two. Looking for more info?

Printing Ideas and Applications: PROTOTYPING: functional prototypes, rapid prototyping AUTOMOTIVE: fastening elements, component covers, vehicle interior equipment, spare parts production Production Maintenance: spare parts, machine components, replacements for metal parts Short-series production: electronics housings, elements with complex geometry, parts and products for individual orders How to Print: Nozzle Temperature 250-270°C Bed Temperature 90-110°C Closed chamber not required Fan 0-25% Flowrate 90-100% Printing Speed 35-60 mm/s Surface masking tape, PVA glue, hairspray Retraction (direct) 1-2 mm Retraction (bowden) 3-5 mm Retraction Speed 20-45 mm/s Drying conditions 60°C / 4h Notes The material has highly abrasive properties. We recommend the use of hardened steel or ruby nozzles.Due to the strong adhesion to the bed, it is not recommended to print directly on its surface or on glass. This can lead to damage. We recommend using a masking tape. You can find more recommended print settings for all Fiberlogy Filaments in this article.
