Carbon Fiber Standard PC+ Filament – 1.75mm – 1kg

Take your functional 3D printing projects beyond standard materials with Carbon Fiber Standard PC+ Filament. Combining the durability and heat resistance of polycarbonate with 10% carbon fiber reinforcement, this engineering-focused filament is designed for users who need stronger, stiffer, and more dimensionally stable printed parts.

The addition of carbon fiber improves rigidity while reducing shrinkage and warping, helping produce cleaner, more accurate prints compared to standard polycarbonate. Whether you're building functional prototypes, manufacturing fixtures, robotics components, or end-use parts, Carbon Fiber PC+ provides the performance needed for demanding applications.

Key Features & Benefits

  • 10% carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate
  • Enhanced stiffness and structural rigidity
  • Excellent temperature resistance exceeding 100°C
  • Improved dimensional stability and reduced warping
  • Strong mechanical properties for demanding applications
  • Professional matte carbon fiber appearance
  • Suitable for functional and engineering-grade parts
  • Reliable layer adhesion and consistent print quality
  • Ideal for enclosed printer environments
  • Designed for high-performance prototyping and production use

Printability and Surface Finish

Carbon Fiber PC+ is engineered to offer many of the benefits of traditional polycarbonate while improving print consistency. The carbon fiber reinforcement helps reduce material shrinkage and improves dimensional accuracy, making it easier to produce large or mechanically demanding components.

Printed parts exhibit a professional matte finish that helps conceal layer lines and provides a refined appearance suitable for prototypes, production tooling, and end-use products. The increased rigidity compared to standard PC makes it particularly useful for applications where structural stability is important.

Because carbon fiber-filled materials are abrasive, a hardened steel nozzle is recommended for long-term printing performance.

Typical Applications and Use Cases

Carbon Fiber PC+ is well suited for:

  • Engineering prototypes
  • Functional mechanical components
  • Robotics and automation projects
  • Manufacturing fixtures and jigs
  • Automotive parts and brackets
  • UAV and drone components
  • Tooling and production aids
  • Structural enclosures
  • Industrial replacement parts
  • High-temperature functional applications

Its combination of heat resistance, rigidity, and dimensional stability makes it a popular choice for users producing parts that must perform under mechanical stress or elevated temperatures.

Material & Compatibility Information

This filament is based on polycarbonate enhanced with 10% carbon fiber reinforcement. Polycarbonate is widely recognized for its exceptional toughness and thermal performance, while carbon fiber improves stiffness and print stability.

For best results:

  • Use a printer capable of polycarbonate processing temperatures
  • A heated bed is recommended
  • An enclosed printer helps minimize warping
  • Keep filament dry before and during printing
  • Store in a sealed container with desiccant when not in use
  • Use abrasion-resistant nozzles for extended printing sessions

The material is compatible with many modern desktop FDM/FFF printers designed to handle engineering-grade materials.

Why Users Choose Carbon Fiber PC+

Makers, engineers, and professionals choose Carbon Fiber PC+ when standard materials such as PLA, PETG, or ABS cannot provide the required combination of stiffness, heat resistance, and dimensional stability.

The carbon fiber reinforcement delivers improved rigidity while helping reduce print distortion, making it an excellent option for functional components that must maintain accuracy and strength. Its balance of performance and printability makes it a valuable material for advanced hobbyists, educators, product designers, and industrial users alike.

Upgrade to Engineering-Grade Performance

Whether you're producing prototypes, manufacturing tools, robotics assemblies, or heat-resistant functional parts, Carbon Fiber Standard PC+ Filament provides the strength, stability, and professional finish required for demanding projects. Equip your printer with a material built for serious performance and reliable results.

What is Carbon Fiber PC+ filament?

Carbon Fiber PC+ is a polycarbonate-based filament reinforced with 10% carbon fiber to improve stiffness, dimensional stability, and overall mechanical performance for engineering-grade 3D printing applications.


What advantages does carbon fiber add to polycarbonate?

Carbon fiber reinforcement increases rigidity, improves dimensional accuracy, reduces warping, and creates a professional matte surface finish while maintaining the heat resistance of polycarbonate.


Is Carbon Fiber PC+ stronger than standard PLA or PETG?

Yes. Carbon Fiber PC+ offers greater heat resistance, stiffness, and mechanical durability than most standard PLA and PETG materials, making it suitable for more demanding functional applications.


Do I need an enclosure to print Carbon Fiber PC+?

An enclosed printer is highly recommended because it helps maintain stable temperatures, reduces warping, and improves overall print quality when working with polycarbonate-based materials.


Should I use a hardened nozzle with this filament?

Yes. Carbon fiber particles are abrasive and can rapidly wear brass nozzles. A hardened steel or wear-resistant nozzle is recommended for long-term use.


Is Carbon Fiber PC+ moisture sensitive?

Yes. Like many polycarbonate materials, it absorbs moisture from the air. Proper storage and drying help maintain print quality and layer adhesion.


What types of parts are best printed with Carbon Fiber PC+?

This material is ideal for engineering prototypes, functional mechanical parts, tooling, fixtures, robotics components, automotive applications, and structural assemblies requiring rigidity and heat resistance.


Can Carbon Fiber PC+ handle high temperatures?

Yes. The material offers temperature resistance above 100°C, making it suitable for applications where standard consumer filaments may soften or deform under heat exposure.
