PET CF15 is a Carbon Fiber reinforced PET which has precisely tuned material properties, for a wide range of technical applications. The filament is very strong and stiff and has high heat resistance. With its high dimensional stability and low abrasiveness, the filament offers an easy to print experience which allows direct printing on glass or a PEI sheet. It is compatible with HiPS for breakaway support and water soluble support and has an excellent surface finish.
