What your process engineer actually checks

Tight diameter, dry, jam-free

Every spool ships with a datasheet covering diameter tolerance, moisture, and a validated print profile for the systems we sell, so feeds stay consistent and parts hold dimension. Load the profile and print.

About this product

Creatbot PET CF is an advanced engineering filament specifically developed for FDM 3D printing, combining PET polymer with carbon fiber reinforcement. This high-performance PET-CF material offers exceptional mechanical properties, excellent dimensional stability, and superior heat resistance after annealing, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications without requiring a heated chamber.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Exceptional Strength & Stiffness: Carbon fiber reinforcement provides high tensile strength (87 MPa) and outstanding modulus (6025 MPa)

  • Superior Heat Resistance: Annealing dramatically increases HDT from 80°C to 149°C for high-temperature applications

  • Excellent Dimensional Stability: Minimal warping and shrinkage during printing without heated chamber

  • Low Moisture Absorption: Maintains properties better than nylon-based composites

  • Chemical Resistance: Withstands exposure to various chemicals and environmental factors

Critical Printing Guidelines

Moisture Management:

  • Store in dry environment (<15% RH)

  • Dry at 100°C for 6-8 hours before printing

  • Vacuum seal for long-term storage

Annealing Process:

  • Temperature: 100°C for 8 hours

  • Methods: Standard plate or sand bath annealing

  • Result: HDT increases from 80°C to 149°C

Hardware Requirements:

  • Hardened steel nozzle essential for abrasive resistance

  • External spool holder recommended to prevent breakage

  • Maintain minimum 110° bend radius in filament path

Performance Highlights

  • Mechanical Strength: High (87 MPa tensile, 123 MPa flexural)

  • Stiffness: Exceptional (6025 MPa tensile modulus)

  • Heat Resistance: Outstanding after annealing (149°C HDT)

  • Dimensional Stability: Excellent – Minimal warping

Typical Applications

  • Industrial Jigs, Fixtures & Tooling

  • Functional Prototypes & End-Use Parts

  • Automotive Brackets & Components

  • Structural Housings & Enclosures

  • Mechanical Components & Mounts

Storage & Handling

Store Creatbot Creatbot PET-CF Carbon Fiber Reinforced Filament in a cool, dry place inside its original sealed bag with desiccant. For long-term storage or in humid environments, use a dry box to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to printing issues and reduced mechanical properties.
