Black

PCTG

#1A1A1A

~45% stronger + 250% stiffer than PCTG w/o fibers. High quality, US-made PCTG just got higher performance! The stiffest, strongest material of it's type that we've tested (see our comparison)!!! The value gets even better with free US shipping for orders $49+, 10% loyalty discount for orders $99+, and bulk discounts of 15-35% off starting at $249. Like Carbon Fiber PLA, Protopasta Carbon Fiber PCTG is a performance value. It requires higher printing temperatures than Carbon Fiber PLA, but is still quite easy to print with bed temperatures from 70+ C and nozzle temps 255+ C. Higher nozzle temps improve layer adhesion, but risk overheating when printing too slow.
