BASF Ultrafuse PC GF30 Black 2.85 mm 500 g

The BASF Ultrafuse XSTRAND GF30-PC is a polycarbonate filament for FDM 3D printing with a 30% glass fibre content. The manufacturer BASF Ultrafuse is market leader in the field of composite materials and is, among other things, known for safety glass and insulation. The XSTRAND filaments bring the company's expertise to the 3D printing world. BASF Ultrafuse XSTRAND PC GF30 offers several advantages. The material is verified for UL94-V0 fire safety. This means that this material is flame retardant and can be used in the appropriate environments. At the same time the material offers good heat resistance up to 137°C. PC GF30 is only slightly hygroscopic, however, it should be stored in a dry, dark environment and should not be removed from its packaging until it is ready for use. The filament is, as usual with fibre-reinforced materials, stiffer and more resilient than the individual polymers. XSTRAND GF30-PC is UV-resistant and electrically insulating. XSTRAND GF30-PC has been specially developed for functional prototypes and demanding applications such as mechanical engineering, electronics and the automotive industry.
