Retaining the core features of the UNIVERSAL ULTRA range (high rigidity, thermal resistance up to 160 °C peak and 115 °C continuous, ease of use similar to standard PLA), it adds long carbon fiber reinforcement, which significantly increases mechanical strength and thermal resistance, and provides a matte surface finish characteristic of filled materials.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis formulation is dedicated to functional parts subject to high mechanical stress: workshop jigs, supports, lightweight structural parts, and prototypes with behavior close to production parts. Several packaging options and colors are available in the UNIVERSAL ULTRA range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eImplementation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe filament prints at a recommended nozzle temperature of 225 °C on a heated bed at 60 °C. The presence of long fibers absolutely requires a steel nozzle (brass and copper\/nickel wear out quickly) and a minimum diameter of 0.5 mm: a 0.4 mm original nozzle will cause incessant clogging. Bed adhesion is ultra-strong; it should be used on a very lightly lacquered bed to ensure easy removal at the end of printing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApart from this tooling constraint, the manufacturer rates the difficulty of implementation as \"very easy,\" making it an accessible composite consumable for operators not specialized in filled materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage and documents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eStore the spool in a dry environment, in a resealable bag with desiccant after opening, to preserve extrusion properties.
