A 3D printing filament that can rest right against live circuit boards

Executive Brief

The 30-second read

The newly released Prusament PETG ESD filament utilizes carbon nanotubes to provide electrostatic dissipative properties for 3D-printed components. This material enables the production of housings and fixtures that safely maintain direct contact with sensitive, live electronics.

  • 01Carbon nanotube integration prevents electrostatic discharge risks in sensitive electronic environments
  • 02Material is specifically designed for printing protective trays and housings for live circuit boards
  • 03Enhanced dissipative properties outperform traditional carbon black additives for high-precision applications
