Description of 🔧 Ultra-Durable and Transparent Polycarbonate Filament by Polymaker

🏆 【PC 3D Printer Filament】 - Polymaker offers different PC filament which can meet your different needs. PolyLite PC offers excellent strength and heat resistance with light diffusing properties; PolyMax PC for extra temperature resistance and toughness and printablility; PolyMax PC-FR can slow/stop the spread of fire for flame retardant need; PC-ABS for excellent toughness and heat resistance while displaying good surface finish, PC-PBT for low temperature toughness and chemical resistance. 🌡️ 【Exceptionally Strong & Heat Resistant PC Filament】 - 1.75mm Polycarbonate filament ( PC filament 1.75mm ) is the strongest and heat resistant of ALL the 3D filament materials that can be printed with consumer grade printers. 🌟 【Affordable Price for Special Application】 - Polymaker 3D printer polycarbonate filament, considering its fantastic properties is also quite budget-friendly compared to some more exotic carbon fiber-filled stuff. It doesn't shrink much upon cooling and will withstand the temperatures in a black car, in the desert, in the summer time, with the sun shining! For hard, strong, stiff, functional parts you won't find better than Polymaker polycarbonate filament 1.75mm. 🧵 【Clean & Dry Enough】 - Carefully winded to avoid any tangling issues, dried and vacuum sealed in a resealable ziplock bag with desiccant. Please make sure to NEVER let go the tip of the filament as it may create nodes. Holes on the side of the spool can be used to prevent this issue. 🎈 【Jam Free & Consistent Diameter】 - Polymaker 3D printer filament polycarbonate 1.75mm has good quality that would never cause clogs, jams, warps or other problems, has great bed adhesion, very consistent color and dimensional accuracy, giving you a good mood printing. It is also very low odor while printing which is a huge bonus. ⚠️【Note】 - Use a BuildTak surface, it will help hold down the print and prevent it from warping. Calibrating your printer before printing is necessary. It is recommended to use an enclosure when printing. For large part it is recommended to use a heated chamber. It is recommended to anneal the printed part right after the printing process to release the residual internal stress. 🛠️ 【PolyLite PC Applications】 - PolyLite 3D printing filament polycarbonate is an engineering PC filament which offer excellence strength and heat resistance. It shows good optical clarity, clear and clean, rendering parts with an attractive crystal shine makeing it very good for lightning application such as lamp shade or cover. Its strength can also be used to print utility hooks, brackets or other home functional items. ⚙️【PolyLite PC Printing Settings】 - Nozzle: 250 ̊C ~ 270 ̊C; Bed: 90 ̊C ~ 105 ̊C; Chamber: 90 ̊C ~ 100 ̊C; Speed: 30mm/s ~ 50mm/s; Fan: Off; Bed Surface: MAGIGOO PC or BUILDTAK; Drying Settings: 75 ̊C for 6h. Annealing settings: 90 ̊C for 2h. Recommended Support Materials: PolySupport (Pink). 🦾 【PolyLite PC Mechanical Properties】 - Young’s Modulus: 2307 ± 60 Mpa; Tensile Strength: 62.7 ± 1.3 Mpa; Bending Strength: 100.4 ± 2.7 Mpa; Charpy Impact Strength: 3.4 ± 0.1 kJ/m2. Thermal Properties: Glass Transition Temperature: 113 ̊C; Vicat Softening Temperature: 117 ̊C.

My new favorite thread!

First off, let me say this thread is AMAZING! I've seen a lot of conflicting reviews on this thread and it seems a lot of the bad reviews are due to a variety of factors. First, you really MUST have a good body. Keeping the temperature around the build plate at a constant level is key to preventing your prints from warping. Second, you need to make sure the thread is DRY. I was hesitant to just take this filament out of the vacuum pack and print right away, but it worked out great! Needless to…

Pros
  • Fairly clean and dry
Cons
  • Requires outlet

One of the easiest materials to work with, even on a cheap Ender 3

This is a composite polycarbonate so you're sacrificing some strength and heat resistance for better printability. Polymaker really found the perfect balance! You don't need edges, a design, a build platform, a heated chamber, or even a whole body to get the perfect print. I have no problem printing this on my cheap Ender 3 with a sleek glass table and a makeshift cardboard cover. How do I print PC Max on my device. 1. First calibrate temperature, slope and extrusion percentage for this…

Pros
  • No jams and constant diameter
Cons
  • No performance

The best polycarbonate (PC) filament!

I work with PC and its blends a lot as I'm exploring the limits of what can be 3D printed as a functional part. I've probably tried/used PCs from about 5 different manufacturers. My general comments are: 1) Polycarbonate (PC) is the most durable and heat resistant of all materials that can be printed on consumer printers. For solid, strong and functional parts you won't find anything better. (PS: If you have a commercial printer, you can play around with other even better performing resins like

Pros
  • Mechanical properties of PolyLite PC
Cons
  • Not reliable
