Standard PC+ Filament 1.75mm – 1kg

Standard PC+ filament is a high-performance polycarbonate blend designed for makers, engineers, advanced hobbyists, and professionals producing durable functional parts. Combining excellent mechanical strength with improved printability over traditional polycarbonate materials, PC+ is ideal for demanding applications requiring toughness, heat resistance, and reliable structural performance.

This 1.75mm PC+ filament is engineered for strong layer adhesion, dimensional stability, and impact-resistant printing, making it suitable for functional prototypes, tooling, brackets, manufacturing aids, enclosures, and engineering projects.

PC+ offers an excellent balance between industrial-grade material properties and desktop FDM printing compatibility for users seeking stronger alternatives to PLA or PETG.

Key Features & Benefits

High Mechanical Strength

PC+ is engineered for durable parts that can withstand demanding functional applications and repeated use.

Excellent Heat Resistance

Compared to standard consumer materials, PC+ provides improved thermal stability for applications exposed to elevated temperatures.

Strong Layer Adhesion

Reliable interlayer bonding helps improve structural integrity and overall print durability.

Impact Resistant Performance

Designed for functional parts that require toughness and resistance to cracking or brittle failure.

Improved Polycarbonate Printability

PC+ blends are generally easier to print than pure polycarbonate while still delivering strong engineering-focused performance.

Typical Applications

Standard PC+ filament is commonly used for:

  • Functional engineering prototypes
  • Mechanical assemblies
  • Tooling and fixtures
  • Robotics components
  • Manufacturing aids
  • Electronic enclosures
  • Structural brackets
  • Workshop accessories
  • Durable utility parts
  • Production-oriented printing

Printability & Material Performance

PC+ is designed for advanced users seeking high-strength functional materials with dependable performance characteristics.

Key material characteristics include:

  • Excellent strength-to-weight performance
  • High impact resistance
  • Strong dimensional stability
  • Improved thermal resistance
  • Durable layer bonding
  • Engineering-grade mechanical properties

Compared to standard PLA and PETG materials, PC+ offers significantly greater heat resistance and improved structural durability for demanding applications.

For best results, PC+ is typically printed using elevated nozzle temperatures, heated beds, and controlled print environments. Enclosed printers are often recommended to help improve thermal stability and reduce warping during larger prints.

Dry filament storage is highly recommended because polycarbonate-based materials can absorb moisture from the air, which may affect surface quality and extrusion consistency.

This 1.75mm PC+ filament is compatible with FDM/FFF 3D printers capable of printing high-temperature engineering materials.

Compatible with many advanced desktop printer platforms including:

  • Bambu Lab
  • Prusa
  • Raise3D
  • QIDI
  • Creality high-temperature models
  • Industrial FDM systems
  • Enclosed desktop 3D printers

Recommended printer setup:

  • All-metal hotend recommended
  • Heated bed required
  • Enclosed printer recommended
  • Dry filament storage advised
  • Direct drive or capable Bowden systems supported

Why Users Choose PC+ Filament

PC+ has become a popular engineering-grade material for users who need stronger, more heat-resistant, and more durable prints than standard consumer filaments can provide.

Users choose PC+ for:

  • Functional engineering parts
  • Durable mechanical applications
  • High-strength prototypes
