Filament Spectrum Carbon PET-G 1.75mm 1kg

Improved hardness and stiffness

Spectrum PET-G Carbon is a modified PET-G based filament blended with carbon fibers that contributes to significantly higher stiffness, hardness and tensile strength while maintaining low shrinkage and very good adhesion to platform construction typical of pure PET-G. . The 10% addition of carbon fibre allows to obtain matt print surfaces, which significantly improves the aesthetic properties of the prints.

Tip: Due to the substantial content of crushed carbon fire, it is recommended to use nozzles with a diameter exceeding the standard value of 0.4 mm. The presence of carbon fibers can also cause wear on the brass nozzle, so it is recommended to use stainless steel nozzles for long-term Spectrum PET-G Carbon application.

Key features:

• improved hardness and stiffness compared to pure PET-G


• higher plasticization temperature compared to pure PET-G


• improved abrasion resistance


• VICAT 80 °C


• much higher compression resistance compared to pure PET-G


• good mechanical properties


• high aesthetic quality, matt surface


• no shrinkage after cooling

App:

• objects that must be very rigid and hard while maintaining dimensional accuracy


• manufacture of spacer components subjected to static pressure loads


• concept and demo prototyping of designed finished and semi-finished products


• decorative parts (aesthetic features)


• external design elements that highlight the product


• prototyping

Cover

The fibre is wound on a neat, transparent spool. Each spool contains information about the material type, diameter and recommended printing temperature. The filament is vacuum packed with a moisture absorber. The entire product is packaged in its original, coated Spectrum Filaments packaging.

VERIFY YOUR SOOL - the most precise quality control system on the market

Filament for 3D printers is produced by the free extrusion method, which is one of the most difficult extrusion processing techniques due to the particularly large influence of process parameters on product dimensions and material homogenization.

During production, each 1mm Spectrum Filament is continuously measured in 2 axes with an accuracy of ±0.8µm, resulting in a high quality final product. As proof of this, Spectrum Filaments has introduced one of the few manufacturers in the world to offer online presentation, individually for each spool produced:

• the course of the diameter along the entire length of the coil,


• mean diameter,


• ovality,


• standard deviation.
