PC Blend - Polycarbonate
High-heat engineering material for parts beyond PLA and PETG limits.

About the material
Polycarbonate (PC) and PC blends offer high heat resistance, toughness, and dimensional stability for demanding environments. Properties: - Typical nozzle 260-300 C, bed 100-120 C - High thermal resistance and impact toughness - Strongly moisture-sensitive; dry filament before printing Best for: electronics housings, automotive interior parts, heat-exposed technical components. Related: ABS, Nylon, Drybox, Filament.
