The 3D4MAKERS PEEK Filament has unique properties because it does not come into contact with water during the production process and is directly packaged in a vacuum packaging. These properties make the 3D4MAKERS PEEK Filament particularly suitable for usage in FDM and FFF 3D printers. The material has an excellent adhesion between layers, which results in great improvement of the impact resistance, strength, durability, and the printing process.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Print Recommendation
Nozzle Temperature 360-400 ºC Bed Temperature 120 ºC Print Speed 15-30 mm/s Bed Adhesion PEI Sheet PEEK is a very difficult material to 3D print. Your 3D printer should have the capability to extrude at 420 ºC, with
a bed temperature of around 120 ºC. Print temperatures and optimal chamber temperatures differ depending on
the printer but can be found around 360 to 420 ºC for the nozzle temperature and around 100 ºC for the
chamber temperature. Your printer should have adequate thermal control in the build chamber throughout
the printing process. Lack of thermal control and incorrect settings could lead to inadequate crystallization of
the polymer in your printer. Lack of process control can also lead to speccing on the part with black specs forming
during printing on your part. Lack of process control and inadequate temperatures can also lead to brown
discoloration in the part, which is an indication that the parts has not been properly crystalized. Do not let the
PEEK material remain in your printer's nozzle for extended periods of time when not extruding. This will lead to
speccing and nozzle blockages. You could post 3D printing anneal your PEEK part in an oven. You should pre-dry
your PEEK filament in an oven as well. The best build surface for PEEK is PEI sheets.
