Reinforced with 10% chopped carbon fiber, SainSmart Carbon Fiber PETG Filament offers an exceptional balance of mechanical strength, stiffness, and lightweight performance. Formulated for functional, high-stress parts, this filament delivers heat resistance and structural stability without the warping or cracking common in unreinforced polymers.
Key Features & Benefits
10% Carbon Fiber Fill: Enhances structural rigidity, tensile strength, and impact resistance for heavy-duty, functional components.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Produces ultra-durable, lightweight models suitable for engineering, automotive, or drone applications.
Superior Heat & Thermal Resistance: Capable of maintaining integrity in high-temperature environments up to 140°F (60°C).
Crack & Warp Resistant: Low thermal expansion ensures exceptional layer adhesion and dimensional stability under load.

Printing Advice & Hardware Recommendations
Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fiber additives, it is strongly recommended to use a 0.6mm (or larger) hardened steel or stainless steel nozzle instead of brass. For best results, dry the filament before printing and utilize an enclosure to maintain a stable ambient temperature during printing.
