Features

Polycarbonate strength, PLA-like shrinkage

Physical properties well beyond ABS for industrial use, combined with the low shrinkage of PLA so it prints without a fight.

Typical catalog values are not finished-part design allowables. Test method, conditioning, specimen orientation and batch acceptance limits require confirmation. Source and evidence status.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a hardened nozzle for PC?

No, PC is not abrasive. You do need an all-metal hotend that reaches 280 °C.

Does the spool fit a Bambu Lab AMS?

Our 1 kg plastic spool is 200 mm outer diameter and 65 mm wide with a 54 mm hub, inside the width and diameter Bambu Lab lists for the AMS. Check the feeder label for the selected material. Wood and composite grades use the external holder, as does TPU on the full-size AMS. TPU 72D can use AMS lite.

Do I need to dry it before printing?

Popping and stringing can have several causes. Check moisture and print conditions separately. The listed drying values are supplier suggestions, not verified endpoints; confirm the grade, spool and dryer limits before heating. See the drying guide for a controlled workflow.
