Spectrum PET CF15 1.75mm 0.75 kg

Filament Spectrum PET CF15

Filament Spectrum PET CF15 is a high-quality material designed for 3D printing that combines the properties of polyester plastic (also known as PET) with carbon fiber additives. This filament contains 15% carbon fibers, as indicated by the "CF15" designation in the product name. It is black, breathable, and easy to print, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

Properties and Benefits

• Increased strength and rigidity: Thanks to its 15% carbon fiber content, this filament significantly surpasses conventional PET-G materials in strength and rigidity.
• Temperature resistance: The material offers short-term working temperature up to 125°C for up to 200 hours, expanding its potential applications.
• Easy processing: Despite its carbon fiber content, this filament is considered one of the easiest to print materials in its category, requiring no special printer modifications.
• Minimal shrinkage: With linear shrinkage of only 0.1% during processing, it ensures high printing accuracy.
• Quality surface finish: Provides smooth surface directly from the printer, minimizing the need for additional processing.

Product Applications

Filament Spectrum PET CF15 is ideal for:

• Prototyping: Creating functional prototypes requiring high strength and durability.
• Final products: Manufacturing parts resistant to mechanical stress.
• Artistic projects: Creating detailed and robust artworks.

Filament Drying

Filament Spectrum PET CF15 is susceptible to moisture absorption, which can negatively affect print quality. For optimal results, it's important to properly dry the filament before printing and during storage:

• Drying temperature: 65-70°C
• Drying time: 4-6 hours
• Storage: Keep in a sealable airtight container with a moisture absorber.

For effective drying, we recommend using a filament dryer, which ensures uniform and gentle moisture removal. Regular drying ensures consistent print quality and minimizes the risk of nozzle clogging.

Packaging

The filament comes in a practical 0.75 kg package that protects the material from moisture and mechanical damage. The packaging is designed for easy storage and transport.

Filament Spectrum PET CF15 represents a suitable choice for any 3D printing enthusiast looking for a combination of quality, performance, and ease of use. Thanks to its unique properties, this filament is ideal for applications requiring high strength, dimensional stability, and easy printing, setting it apart from many other filaments on the market.
