FormFutura CarbonFil filament is based upon the unique PETG blend of our HDglass compound and is reinforced with 15% ultra-light and relatively long stringer carbon fibers, which has resulted in an exceptionally stiff carbon-fiber reinforced 3D printer filament. CarbonFil is twice as stiff as HDglass and yet it is even 10% more impact resistant, which is a remarkable feature for carbon-fiber reinforced filament.
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.
