Carbon Fiber
We’re putting Protopasta’s new High Impact Carbon Fiber PCTG to the test, and honestly? It’s just flexing at this point. We’re printing a heavy-duty, snap-close broom holder (a remix by Simple£D on MakerWorld), and the print process has been pretty flawless and effortless on our lab's Prusa CoreOne L. Carbon fiber strength with zero drama? So far, we’re impressed. More on PCTG coming this week.
With a reported Z axis tensile strength of 60 MPa, the new graphene mesh outperforms 3DXTech by 2.5x and significantly surpasses industry-standard Stratasys Nylon 12CF.
