I think the other reviews pretty much cover it, but I had to add my voice to the crowd. The matte black surface is gorgeous. I'm pretty new to 3D printing, but I bought a lot of filaments to experiment with, especially non-standard ones like carbon fiber, wood, and bronze fill. I have yet to use a material with a comparable/better surfce quality. I've been printing at 200C/0.1mm layer height and the texture of the carbon fiber seems to hide the layer lines on the side of the printed object so you can barely tell they're there, especially on more complex outer surfaces. And it really is easy to print with, as easy or even easier than other PLA I've used. The filament is quite brittle as other reviewers have mentioned, so careful when loading -- I haven't had any trouble, though. But the rigidity is an aspect of this material -- when printed, it's surprisingly strong. I printed a 150mm x 50mm x 10mm bar with 60% infill (I included a picture of it being printed), and I couldn't even bend it slightly with most of my strength. I also really like the spool itself (looks just like in the product image). Proto-pasta just has a cool sense of style overall, from the unique materials to the code in the background on the spool. I've already run through my first spool, and I've ordered another as well as some other interesting materials from them. Overall, I would recommend anyone to buy this. It's definitely worth the price. Review: Printed well using PLA settings. - Good material. Printed well on a Makerbot Replicator 2 at 230 degrees with unheated bed and blue painters tape. A little hairspray on the bed improved adherence. The filament is indeed stiff and a bit brittle, requiring some care when feeding it into the nozzle, but this was not serious problem. Print resolution was great, and the final product very stiff, strong and no warping, with a nice carbon fiber sheen. Definitely store unused filament in a desiccator box - it will pick up moisture and affect printing. ## Features - The Original Carbon Fiber Composite PLA - This filament is slightly more abrasive than standard PLA. Be prepared to replace your nozzle and do 1st layer adjustment after prolonged use or upgrade to a wear resistant nozzle for less maintenance. - Finishing Variety - With the option to heat-treat, wire brush, or polish this filament 1.75 gives you plenty of different choices to give your finished product a different look. - High Quality - Proto-pasta offers only U.S-made, high-quality 3D printer filament PLA. Using only premium materials with a focus on craftsmanship this PLA 1.75 is one you can trust to get the job done. - Easier to Use - This PLA Filament 1.75 mm has been flow-optimized and has less moisture than standard PLAs to help avoid heat soak and to keep mass flow up. This combination of features makes it easier to use than most standard PLAs. - Widely Compatible - Designed to work with most standard 3D printers this 3D filament PLA 1.75 has a wide range of compatibility that allows you to run a business or simply create premium pieces in the comfort of your own home. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01BDL4BNG | | Best Sellers Rank | #623,744 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #5,163 in 3D Printing Filament | | Brand | Proto-Pasta | | Brand Name | Proto-Pasta | | Color | Original Carbon Fiber Pla, 500g | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 167 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00640970861890 | | Included Components | Item | | Item Diameter | 1.75 millimeters | | Item Weight | 500 g | | Manufacturer | Protoplant | | Manufacturer Part Number | CFP11705 | | Material | Polylactic Acid | | Material Type | Polylactic Acid | | Model Number | CFP11705 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | UPC | 850039562259 640970861890 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | No warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Proto-Pasta - **Color:** Original Carbon Fiber Pla, 500g - **Item Diameter:** 1.75 millimeters - **Item Weight:** 500 g - **Material:** Polylactic Acid ## Images ![Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hdLXcH+pL.jpg) ![Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7110cArWm2L.jpg) ![Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hKDogdgGL.jpg) ![Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7145zRDvY2L.jpg) ![Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LH+AE1R1L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this filament have any conductive properties?** A: This filament is not conductive. **Q: Once you print the part, at what temperature does the part start to lose its strength?** A: Because it is PLA based, it will start to soften around 100-120f. ProtoPasta is releasing a new higher temp PLA with carbon fiber reinforcements soon though. Stay tuned! **Q: Why would i buy this if more brittle than pla? if carbon fiber supposed to be stronger than pla? why is this more brittle???** A: After model is made, it's solid as a rock. It also has a matte finish, better than PLA. However, it is brittle off of the roll (bad) but once it's extruded, it is equal or stronger than PLA and the finish is nice (good). Try it yourself, your opinions may differ. **Q: Will this work with a M3D or a Robox?** A: Here are the conditions that worked best for my printer, and you can see if the characteristics match. It prints at 225*C and clogs unless I use a >=0.6mm nozzle. The site says you don't have to use a heated bed, but I can't get it to stick without heat. I get best results when my heated bed is around 40-60*C. Also, the filament is highly corrosive, so I'd recommend you consider needing to replace your printer's nozzle down the road. I was able to find a nickel plated brass nozzle that is designed for corrosive filaments and it has done me really well. Hope all that helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best material I've printed with yet *by S***R on October 24, 2016* This is absolutely my favorite filament to print with so far.

After ruining 2 Capricorn tubes i checked the filament size, the first spot was 1.87 next spot was 1.9, not one spot withing a foot was under 1.82. So yeah no wonder it kept pushing the tube out. Absolute waste of money. ## Frequently Bought Together - Protopasta 3D Printer Filament, PLA Filament 1.75mm, Composite Carbon Fiber PLA, 500g Spool - Polymaker Matte PLA Filament Charcoal Black 1.75mm 1kg 3D Printing Filament, PolyTerra 3D Printer PLA Filament - Polymaker PETG Filament 1.75mm 1kg Clear 3D Printer Filament, PolyLite PETG 3D Printing Filament 1.75mm, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.03mm, Print with Most 3D Printers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/24634613-protopasta-3d-printer-filament-pla-filament-1-75mm-composite-carbon](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/24634613-protopasta-3d-printer-filament-pla-filament-1-75mm-composite-carbon) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-10-23*
