Overview
PET CF15 (Polyethylene Terephthalate carbon fiber reinforced) is the easiest material filled with carbon fiber to print and can be printed directly on glass. It combines high dimensional stability and very low moisture absorption for applications in humid operating environments.
The heat-resistant property, strength, and stiffness make this filament highly suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.

Very versatile material
PET CF15 combines high dimensional stability and very low moisture absorption for applications in humid operating environments. Its heat resistance, strength, and stiffness make this filament highly suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
High heat resistance
PET CF15 is perfect for creating parts that need to be highly temperature-resistant as it supports working temperatures of up to 100 ºC.
Excellent surface finish and impact strength
Immaculate end-use parts can be constructed with PET CF15 while maintaining high impact strength.
Very low moisture absorption
PET CF15 is the best choice for strong and stiff prints to be used as end-use parts in very humid environments.
Excellent surface finish and impact strength
This stabilization system includes 3D printed end-use parts. The brackets are carbon fiber for a sturdy, reliable support system.
