1st layer was tricky but after that it prints perfectly

Printing with a .4 nozzle with .16 layer height, best result when printing directly out of the filament dryer it needs to be dry or you will get artifacts

I've printed probably 20kg of carbon filled PETG and have never had as much trouble as with this stuff. I bought 2 rolls when it was on sale but it just clogs my nozzle constantly. When I've done cold pulls to remove the clog, there appears to be metalic fragments in the filament. I would stay away and use pretty much any other filament.

This is excellent filament for strong functional prints. It does need drying for best results, even right out of the bag. Printing on a Bambu P1P with upgraded hardened components. This filament provides better results than Bambu's own CFPETG.

Great support

I have not been able to stop or reduce the stringing. It seems strong but has a rough finish.

So far I love the material. But that being said, I have much to learn about the right setups for printing this on a Bamu Lab X1 Carbon. Most tell me that a 0.6mm nozzle will work well to get the best results.

Absolute favorite filament. Awesome surface finish. Stiff. Looks like a machined part!

This stuff prints great! I'm using it to print automotive parts and so far I've had no issues with it. It's very rigid and has a higher hardness than regular petg which makes it strong, although slightly brittle at the same time. Not a big issue for my application and I'll be ordering a lot more of it. I'll definitely be ordering lots more of this filament.

Prints nicely and the parts look great! Printed at 220C with 60C on the bed in my Voron 2. A little stringing which can be eliminated by printing at 210, but the part is much stronger at 220 than at 210

I love this Canadian made PETG from 3D printing Canada !!! I have been running mostly PLA so far with great results, however I have run into issues in several projects. The rigidity and impact strength is not ideal with this very popular resin that shines mostly when you want aesthetics and ease of printing. The other more severe drawback is the very low HDT of PLA. It is a shame to see your parts sag just by rinsing them under a bit of hot water! Don't dry sand them either, the PLA will melt and stick to the sandpaper. Enter PTEG with it's higher strength, heat and chemical resistance. Add 12% carbon (chunks, ground fibres, whatever) and we are into more serious composite materials. Here are a few of the main advantages that I have found: 1. Hardness, stiffness and strength are all at the rendez-vous. For once we have something structural enough to trust. The image shows long flat skate blade holders that clamp onto ski boots for high speed sailing and kiting on ice. PETG does get more brittle at -20C but keeps it's strength. 2. BONUS: If you want to sand and finish this material for moulding composites, it is the cat's meow. PETG is resistant to styrene, so you can apply waxed gelcoat to it for filling and sealing it up. But the carbon content is great for adhesion that you would not get with unfilled PETG. Then you can sand dry then wet with great precision. I use white gelcoat to see where I am at in the sanding process, where I am sanding certain areas too much, or not enough and I am loosing precision. If you are into making precision airfoils and hydrofoils, this is your material of choice for making cores to laminate and masters for moulds. I give this material the highest ratings, but be aware, you will need hardened steel or wear resistant nozzles. Because it is loaded, you will need a larger nozzle. The great service guys at 3DPC recommended 0.6mm. I am getting 0.8mm Micro Swiss nozzle to try that out! The extruder gear is another part you may need to replace. The e3D on my Chiron was toast after 2 rolls. I am looking for hardened steel ones...

printed well on cr 6 se

Very easy to print at 230/85 and have a nice look.

Layer lines are invisible, carbon fibre makes it much stiffer than regular petg. Easy as normal petg to print. Probably one of my favourite materials to use right now!

Excellent assistance from the staff. Thanks again.

This filament has been really easy to print with. I love the matte finish, with a bit of a sheen to it. I'd say its colour is similar to pencil lead. Parts printed with it feel so strong. Pretty much all my filaments are 3D printings house brand and I've had no issues.

Im not sure what happened but this stuff isnt great anymore, did the formula change? it warps now and it never did before. I have tried multiple brands of carbon petg and this stuff warps :( Feels like the carbon was removed and the matte look was kept. please revert back to previous formula

I love the material, I am still having trouble with temps (nozzle and bed) to get more detail from my prints but I like the strength of the parts

awesome staff always friendly and will answer any questions. products never let me down no tangles no issues

Designed and created a new fuel neck/cup for a locking fuel cap for my hmmwv. Great filament for structural parts.

I must say that I'm really happy with this filament. When I bought it (on sale), I didn't really have a project in mind. Since then, I decided to build a hypercube and figured that this would be a good test for this filament. After getting the first layer height dialed in, I've been able to print with my regular PETG settings (230/225C) with zero problems. A little bit of stringing, but it's manageable. Will I buy this filament again? Definitely!

My new favourite filament. It is now my go to filament for most projects.

Upade to my review: Printing at 255c caused improved layer adhesion, where the brim was actualy difficult the remove, as difficult as some other petgs. So it is possible, however this filament is quite hygroscopic and its petg so it strings and makes dags.

With my experience, it was not really like the other reviews. When I first got the spool, I noticed right away that the filament was bent into the spool like you would normally, and not taped in, like with other fiber blends I have used before. Once I opened the spool, I noticed the filament was flexible and soft, like normal PETG, and felt very similar to normal PETG. I started printing with it and the parts that came out felt like normal PETG. My hope was when I bought this was that it would be a rigid and cheap option, so I didn't have to use other more expensive materials just for rigidity. However, this came out to be very soft. Secondly, the layer adhesion was abyssmal. Even with filament I know to have bad layer adhesion (eg PolyTerra) this was worse than PolyTerra. I printed a solid rectangle, with 100% infill at 225 degrees c, and when i dropped it, rather than shattering (which it shouldn't either because it's a thick block of PETG) it split along the extrusions. You could try higher extrusion temps, but when I tried that, the PETG usually balled up. With other brands of PETG, the print quality is great and they don't ball up, and I can print them at around 240-250 degrees c, attaining great layer adhesion. A couple perks of this filament, however, is that lack of stringing and the easy support removal and the matte surface finish. It strings about as much as PLA does, so not at all, and supports just pop off, leaving a perfect surface. So if you need a filament for looks, this would be it, but if you need one for strength and stiffness, this is not the filament.

Get a jewelled nozzle, buy this filament, buy more of this filament, buy all of this filament, keep extra stock of this filament, print everything with this filament. There really is not downside to 3DPC Carbon fibre filament. Its my favourite. Use in between colour prints to scrape the crud out of your nozzle.

I was having all kinds of issues printing at 250/85 which is what I use for all other petg filaments. Hotend kept clogging. I ran a temp tower and found optimal temp was 225 and prints were coming out much better than I expected. Will buy again, and again and again :)

Very nice filament. I usually use it for more functional components due to its strength and higher temperature stability but it can print other figures nicely as well. It has a nice Matte finish and a bit of a texture to it that helps hide lines and artifacts a little. It prints well at 220C to 230C on the nozzle. It does need some heat on the bed and with a textured PEI bed at 85C it holds well with no additional bonding or release agents. It will shrink a little on an open bed printer. I found it can also pull away on 2nd or 3rd layers with too much cooling. I print the first layer at 230 and the remaining at 230 or 220 if stringing is an issue. No cooling for the first 3 or 4 layers then just a little bit of cooling from then on. The attached image was printed at 0.2mm layer height with a 0.4mm brass nozzle. This filament will chew threw brass nozzles but I find I prefer brass nozzles and just change them out from time to time when using abrasive materials. All in all a nice filament for functional and aesthetic prints.

I was quite surprised at how easy this was to print. It seems to stick to the bed perfectly. I do use a small amount of glue but I'm honestly not even sure it needs it. This picture isn't the best example but the print finish is extremely smooth as well. This was printed with a 0.6mm nozzle at 0.3mm layer height. Made it to test the strength but I haven't conducted the test yet. Overall great filament, I will buy again.

Best Carbon Fiber PETG I have tried!

Meilleures filaments que j'ai utilisé

Seems to print well on my ender 5 plus with the Microswiss hotend at 245C and the bed set about 80C. Layer adhesion was an issue lower than 220C...or it was for me on the temp test tower I printed. Not too stringy and has a nice matt finish.

I wanted to try this material for a long time.... I was scared it would’nt stick to my glass bed. Well, the first print look like this! Amazing finish! It’s only a pushfit end cap for a Harley-Davison crashbar but it has no possible comparasion with the petg version i printed before this one. Can’t wait to test the strengh of this filament.

Being new to the 3D printing world I am just figuring out how to print with PETG. Having used some other brands I was doing ok but with some frustration. Thought I would try this 3D Printing CF, good choice. Best prints to date and have recommended it to some friends who have also been very please with the results.

Just magnificent results. Nice matte finish and very well behaved. Good bed adhesion properties. Any hairs or retraction artifacts basically fall off without remaining evidence on the model. I'm glad I stocked up ahead of Christmas.

Great filament , prints almost like PLA and the mat finish makes the layer lines almost invisible and it's a bit stiffer than regular PETG.

this filament sticks to bed well , I'm getting nice clean prints at 235 degrees . The prints have a lot of strength to them , a guy can't ask for much more . Hopefully there will be more in stock soon

Exactly what I wanted; tougher material than PLA at higher temperatures. Using a micro-Swiss coated nozzle(thanks to advice from the helpful staff at 3DPC!). Used 240C nozzle and 100C bed temp settings left everything the way it was. No clogs - very consistent carbon particles. Recommend it for a tougher geometrically-stable print. Used Cura with existing PETG setting and printed a G-clamp. Threads fit perfectly together. Now off to experiment with Nylon-CF, next!

works well, nice texture, great adhesion, would buy again

This is an excellent filament at a great the price. I've printed about three quarters of the spool so far across five different parts. I had a bit of stringing with travel moves across open spaces, but I've been printing hot at 240 °C with no fan for maximum layer adhesion and part strength. The stringing is stiff and easy to break off on account of the carbon fibre, but I feel I can tune my retraction settings a little better to substantially reduce it. I've had great results printing at 240 °C, 50mm/sec, through a 0.6mm nozzle on an 40W V6 mounted on a Titan extruder, no fan, and a 75 °C bed temp on PEI. The print has a nice matte finish.

Used to print drift wheels for rc car and scooter handles real durable recommened.

Love this filament and for the price it is simply unbeatable. Photo is straight after a print. Little bit of stringing at 235 but I can live with it because they Leave no residue and layer adhesion is really good that temp. At 70 degree bed temp there is no warping on pei and prints never come loose. I keep the filament in a dry box and the prints are gorgeous all the way to the end of the spool.

PETG normally is priced around $22ish, so this filament is only about 25-30% more for the addition of Carbon fiber. The addition of CF to PETG moderates PETG's primary bad attributes; stringing, some warping and sticking to nozzles. Those bad attributes are still present but usually you can keep them under control if the filament is dry and you have your print settings dialed in and you print with an ooze shield and if the print does not have many sharp features/angles. Looks wise, the addition of CF gives the print a nice texture that tends to hide some of the layer lines.

Super easy. I made a very accurate seal driver for my motorcycle fork. Excellent finish. Will buy more

@doxartist we are creating a unique collection of jewelry, finished with bio-natural Japanese urushi lacquer. the first project in our research combining 21st century 3d printing & an ancient material craft, perfectly suited to the current climate of design

Does exactly what I was looking for from this filament, which was to get me a bit more resistance to flex than the PETG I was already printing. Pictured is a bracket from an Ender 5 dual Z axis mod (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4079052) that I'm soon installing, and I think the carbon fiber PETG is just what I needed. I'm printing at 230C, 80mm/sec on the Ender 5 with the Micro Swiss hotend and the Basaraba direct drive kit. The filament doesn't seem to want to string and I had no jams or other issues with it. The surface finish is also very nice.
