PETG CF10 Plexiwire
PETG CF10 plastic Plexiwire 1.75 mm is a professional engineering filament reinforced with 10% chopped carbon fibers. The material is based on classic PETG copolyester, but with the addition of carbon fiber, it becomes 25% stronger and stiffer than standard counterparts. This is the ideal solution for FDM printing of functional parts that operate in harsh conditions and require increased resistance to deformation.
Advantages of PETG CF10
The choice of carbon-filled Plexiwire PETG CF10 plastic ensures professional quality engineering products thanks to the following properties:
- Improved strength. The addition of carbon significantly increases the stiffness and resistance of the material to mechanical stress.
- Excellent layer adhesion. Carbon fibers enhance the bond between layers, preventing delamination even under intensive use.
- Maximum stability. The material has even less thermal shrinkage compared to regular PETG, ensuring high dimensional accuracy of large models.
- Unique texture. The surface of finished products has a special matte pattern that hides layer lines and gives parts an aesthetic appearance.
- Chemical and UV resistance. Like the base PETG, the CF10 version is resistant to ultraviolet and aggressive chemical compounds.
Application Options
Thanks to the combination of ease of printing and engineering strength, PETG CF10 Plexiwire is indispensable in the following areas:
- Robotics and drones: manufacturing of lightweight yet rigid frames, brackets, and protective enclosures.
- Automotive industry: printing of functional interior parts, cladding, and mounts.
- Engineering prototyping: creating models that need to withstand real test loads.
- Sports equipment: manufacturing custom gear elements with high strength reserves.
- Technical parts: strong fasteners, levers, and assemblies that require durability and wear resistance.
Technical Tips
To achieve the best results with PETG CF10, consider the following recommendations for your 3D printer:
- Extruder temperature: 230°C – 255°C.
- Platform temperature: 70°C – 80°C.
- Use of a strong nozzle: carbon fibers are abrasive, so they quickly wear out soft brass nozzles. It is recommended to use nozzles made of hardened steel, coated steel (nickel), or nozzles with a ruby or sapphire tip.
- Ventilation: active cooling after the first layer will help avoid surface defects.
- Adhesion and cleanliness: always clean the table surface before printing. Optimal retraction settings prevent stringing.
- Drying and storage: the material is hygroscopic. Before use, the filament must be thoroughly dried and stored in airtight conditions to preserve the carbon properties.
