CARBON Brand High Temperature PETG filaments are extruded from premium Eastman GN071 CoPolyester plastic, which feeds smoothly and constantly without clogging the nozzle or extruder even as printing. Eastman GN071 Copolyester is likely one of the easiest resins to extrude and thermoform and is best-in-class for its processing ease, energy efficiency, thermoformability, and versatility. It is BPA free, has effective barrier properties, and is not a material of concern. It is also an excellent alternative for Polystyrene (PS) and PVC materials. Eastman GN071 is certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 51 for Food Equipment Materials and may be used in more than a few food contact applications in accordance with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration Regulations. It has also been GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified by The GREENGUARD Certification Program and received a Platinum-level Material Health Certificate from the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute. The Material Health Certificate provides manufacturers with a trusted way to communicate their efforts to identify and replace chemicals of concern in their products. The use of this prime quality raw material allows CARBON Brand to provide a filament that is certified food grade and food Secure, with low odor, low warpage, high affect strength and good liquidity (flows smoothly). Our Clear PETG filament is Verified Compatible with the Prusa Mini & MakerBot Method Printer with Labs Extruder, as well as other open materials FDM 3D printers.

【Smooth Printing】 — Eastman GN071 Copolyester is likely one of the easiest resins to extrude and thermoform with. Advanced CCD diameter measuring and self-adaptive keep watch over system in the manufacturing produces PETG filaments of 1.75 mm diameter, with dimensional accuracy of: +/- 0.04 mm. A stable diameter accuracy further insures you a smooth feeding experience.
【Mechanical Properties and Consistency】– Use GN071 Copolyester for both 3D Printing and Injection Molding. Carbon Brand PETG maintains Mechanical Consistency all over your Project. Tensile strength (X-Y): 50 ± 1.1 (MPa), Bending modulus: 2100 ± 64 (MPa), Bending strength: 68 ± 2.4 (MPa), Izod affect strength: 103 ± 0.3 (J/m), Deflection Temperature: @0.455 MPa (66 psi) D 648 70 °C (158 °F), Processing Melt Temperature: 249-271 °C (480-520 °F).
【Professional Packaging & Compatibility】– Filament is vacuum packaged with desiccant to keep filament dry and free of dust and foreign particles. Perfectly compatible with most FDM 3D printers, that fortify 3rd party materials. These include: Makerbot, Zortrax, Quidi, Prusa i3 MK3, M3D, Robo 3D, Wanhao, Creality Ender 3, Monoprice, FlashForge and more.
【Printing Temp and Nozzle Recommendation】– Recommended Extrusion/Nozzle Temperature: 220°C – 270°C. We recommend replacing your brass nozzle with a stainless steel nozzle and using an all-metal hot end. Brass nozzles run the risk of containing lead, which can be dangerous for your health if consumed.
【Food Secure Suggestions】– We suggest that you use a stainless steel nozzle and a stainless steel all-metal hot-end. Use a separate nozzle and hot end for Food Grade models. A second hot-end will keep your Food-Grade prints free from contaminants.
【Food Secure Slicing and Model Finishing】– Depending on your slicing methods, your 3d Printing Machine, your finishing process, and your intended usage, the Food Secure Quality of your end product may change. Be sure to properly finish your models and use an appropriate sanitizer between uses of your end product. Printing solid models is advised.
【Difference Between Food Grade and Food Secure】– Food-Grade means that the material is safe to eat or permitted to come into contact with food. Food-Secure means that the Food-Grade material is also fit for purpose, for its intended use, and will not create a food-safety hazard. For example, it may be fit for purpose to use a Food-Grade container to hold a dry ingredient, but that same container may not be fit for purpose to be used to hold a hot liquid.
【Food Secure Considerations】– Just because a material is permitted to come into contact with food does not necessarily mean it is Food-Secure. Our Filament is Food Grade, and without modification is also Food Secure. Once the Filament is molded or extruded into a new shape, by the end user, the Food Secure Qualities need to be reassessed.
