PET-G CaRBON FILAMENT
PET-G filament with added carbon fibers. Extremely strong and stiff, yet surprisingly light.
What is PET-G CARBON?
PET-G Carbon has the same formula of PET-G, but this version is reinforced with carbon fiber. Thanks to small fibers added to the PETG material, the properties of this material are improved. The carbon fibers are extremely strong and thus improve the strength and rigidity of PETG. Despite these additions, the carbon filament does not change much in terms of print settings.

Properties
As mentioned, the added carbon fibers make it the PETG carbon filament stronger, but that doesn’t mean the material also increases in weight. On the contrary, the printed parts become lighter. Also, thanks to the carbon filament, prints retain their shape better because the fibers prevent shrinkage during cooling.

PET-G Carbon composition
The carbon fibers can be added to several types of filament. PLA, Nylon and ABS can also be enriched with carbon to increase in strength and stiffness.

Printing PET-G Carbon filament
It is important to use special tools when printing with carbon. Printing with carbon filaments gives more chance of clogging and in addition carbon can affect the metal of the nozzle and eventually wear it away.
