MATERIAL OVERVIEW
Properties to guide your selection.
Carbon-fibre-filled PET is intended to improve rigidity, hardness and wear performance. The supplier describes reduced warping during printing, making it a candidate for dimensionally stable functional components.
Selection considerations
Confirm the final-part performance rather than relying on print settings alone.
