Polycarbonate (PC)

Polycarbonate (PC)

POLYCARBONATE (PC) is a high-performance, engineering-grade thermoplastic filament widely used in FDM 3D printing for manufacturing durable, high-strength, impact-resistant, and heat-resistant functional parts. With its excellent optical clarity, dimensional stability, and mechanical strength, PC is ideal for industrial-grade 3D printing of end-use parts, prototyping, and custom tooling. Commonly used across sectors like automotive engineering, aerospace components, consumer electronics, electrical enclosures, and medical device prototyping, PC offers reliable performance under high stress and elevated temperatures, making it a top choice for functional mechanical parts, load-bearing applications, and high-precision 3D printing projects.

APPLICATIONS OF POLYCARBONATE (PC) IN FDM 3D PRINTING

High-strength | Transparent | Heat-resistant | Industrial-grade | Engineering thermoplastic

  • Automotive 3D printed parts – engine housings, heat-resistant brackets, custom clips

  • Aerospace components – lightweight mounts, enclosures, drone frames

  • Electrical insulation parts – PCB cases, terminal boxes, non-conductive covers

  • Transparent light covers & lenses – optical-grade clear 3D printed parts

  • Functional engineering prototypes – strong, impact-resistant concept models

  • Medical device mockups – durable enclosures, lab tools, diagnostic aids

  • Industrial tooling & jigs – custom fixtures, production aids, machine-compatible tools

  • Protective shields & face visors – clear safety guards for equipment and personnel

  • Robotics & automation parts – structural frames, gears, joints, and end-use parts

  • High-temp enclosures – machine housings, thermal-resistant components

  • Consumer electronics – strong snap-fit cases, wearables, device covers

  • Low-volume end-use production – durable industrial-grade replacement parts
