Stratasys® PC Polycarbonate for 3D Printing
Categories:	Polymer; 3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polycarbonate (PC)
Material Notes:	PC is a polycarbonate FDM® filament that brings the attributes of this industrial plastic to 3D printing applications. PC is characterized by its high strength and impact resistance, coupled with dimensional stability and heat resistance. These attributes make it a good choice for 3D printed prototypes, parts and tools that demand higher material properties than ABS or ASA. FDM PC is available in white and is compatible with both breakaway and soluble support materials.PC runs the Xtend 500 Fortus Plus option, which enables more than 400 hours of unattended build time.
