CreatBot PEEK-GF 1.75 mm 1 kg

The CreatBot PEEK-GF is a glass fiber reinforced PEEK material featuring high strength, impressive rigidity, high temperature resistance above 180 °C, and pressure resistance of 140 MPa. Moreover, compared to PEEK-CF, the filament provides better density and toughness alongside virtually the same performance.

Like the original PEEK, this material is often used as a lightweight metal substitute, since the impressive strength of the printed parts makes it more efficient compared to many metals and metal alloys. Generally, the CreatBot PEEK-GF is highly suitable for manufacturing of custom durable parts in such spheres as aerospace, automotive, industrial machinery and equipment, consumer electronics, tooling, etc. It can also be used to produce highly stable prototypes that can withstand the rigorous testing of functional parts during design verification to meet the demanding requirements of the production environment.

As a high-performance thermoplastic, PEEK-GF requires certain printing conditions, high nozzle temperature being the first of them. It is recommended to turn off the cooling fan while printing the material for proper crystallization. The recommended printing parameters for the CreatBot PEEK-GF filament are as follows:

• Nozzle temperature: 440 °C
• Bed temperature: 120 °C
• Layer height: 0.15 mm
• Print speed: 20 mm/s
• Infill: 100%, +/- 45°
• Nozzle size: 0.4 mm
• Cooling fan: off
