Phaetus aeWorthy™ PETG-CF 1kg Spool
Couldn't load pickup availability
Phaetus aeWorthy PETG-CF is PETG reinforced with chopped carbon fiber on a 1.75mm, 1kg spool (Black). It's the stiffness-and-finish upgrade over plain PETG: more rigid, more dimensionally stable, lower warp, with a matte black surface that hides layer lines. Good for functional parts that don't need the heat resistance of a nylon — jigs and fixtures, brackets, enclosures, drone/RC frames, and cosmetic functional prints.
Print settings
- Nozzle: 235-260°C
- Bed: 70-80°C
- Speed: 30-60 mm/s
- Enclosure: not required (PETG-class), but helps with consistency on larger parts
Hardware: you need a hardened nozzle
Carbon fiber is abrasive. It will wear out a standard brass nozzle quickly. Run a hardened steel, DLC-coated, tungsten carbide, or ruby nozzle — Phaetus recommends these for their Dragon, Dragonfly, and Rapido hotends. If you don't already have one, add a hardened or DLC nozzle to your order before printing this.
Drying
PETG-CF is hygroscopic and carbon-fiber blends pull in moisture fast. Dry before use if the spool has been open or sitting — wet filament gives you stringing, popping, and a rough surface. A filament dryer or a low oven (follow your dryer's PETG profile) restores it. Store sealed with desiccant.
Notes
1.75mm diameter, 1kg net weight. Exact carbon-fiber percentage and density are not published on Phaetus's data sheet; comparable PETG-CF filaments run roughly 10-15% chopped CF. This is an engineering filament — moisture-sensitive, so buy what you'll use.

Shipping:
US Shipping is via UPS or USPS. The way it is set up shows the least expensive options for standard, priority and express shipping. I can not take special requests for specific carriers at this time.
International shipping is mostly UPS, as I utilize Zonos/UPS integration to tally extremely accurate import and shipping costs.
I require a telephone and email with international orders and you must make yourself available to the carrier or your customs, should they require more information. If you are unreachable and the package is discarded or rerturned, I will not be responsible for rerturning your shipping cost.
If there is a problem with an international order, it is my choice to refund part or all of the order, or send a replacement.
Addresses are verified through Shopify, but the customer is still responsible for inputting their address in the correct format. Any returns or lost shipments, due to incorrectly addressed packages, are the responsibility of the customer.
