ELEGOO PLA-CF Filament (black)
ELEGOO PLA-CF (polylactide doped with carbon fiber) filament combines the ease of printing typical of PLA (polylactide - a plant-derived, biodegradable plastic) with higher mechanical strength. The addition of carbon fiber increases the stiffness of the material and reduces its shrinkage during cooling, resulting in greater dimensional precision. This type of material works well in technical components, housings and prototypes that need to be durable but lightweight.
Accurate and aesthetically pleasing models
The addition of carbon fiber reduces shrinkage and deformation of the material, resulting in precise, well-fitted parts. Printed models have a matte surface and faintly visible layer lines, giving a professional effect without additional processing. The material fits most FDM 3D printers (Fused Deposition Modeling - a technology that applies molten plastic layer by layer).
Printing without problems
The filament has a diameter of 1.75 mm and a dimensional tolerance of ± 0.02 mm, which facilitates even feeding without jams. It is vacuum-packed with a moisture absorber to protect against bubbles and a clogged nozzle. It can be used alone or combined with classic PLA, maintaining high quality prints.
