What your process engineer actually checks
Tight diameter, dry, jam-free
Every spool ships with a datasheet covering diameter tolerance, moisture, and a validated print profile for the systems we sell, so feeds stay consistent and parts hold dimension. Load the profile and print.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on diameter tolerance, moisture, layer adhesion, or warping? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.

Why engineers choose Creatbot PC Filament
Four things engineers check before standardizing on a high-heat structural filament.
135°C HDT, 155°C glass transition
A 135°C heat-deflection temperature and 155°C glass transition let PC hold shape and load at temperatures that soften ABS, PETG, and nylon — near motors, lighting, and warm enclosures.
High impact strength
Polycarbonate is among the toughest 3D-printing thermoplastics — it absorbs impact and resists cracking under shock, a reason it’s chosen for protective and structural parts.
±0.02mm diameter tolerance
Tight, consistent diameter means steady extrusion — no mid-print under-extrusion from a loose spot or clogs from a tight one.
Rigid & dimensionally stable
62 MPa tensile strength with high stiffness — parts stay true under mechanical and thermal load rather than creeping or deflecting in service.
How we ship it
Every spool of Creatbot PC Filament leaves Gardena, CA the same way.
Print profile confirmed
Nozzle and bed temperatures verified on a CreatBot F430 before the spool is listed — not copied from a generic PC spec sheet.
Sealed with desiccant
Vacuum-bagged with the original desiccant pack — critical for PC, which absorbs moisture readily and prints poorly when wet.
Ships from L.A. stock
In stock at our Gardena facility — 1–2 business day dispatch, datasheet included in the box.
Print compatibility
Runs on an FDM/FFF printer with a heated bed to 110°C, a nozzle rated to 280°C, and — importantly — an enclosure; PC warps and cracks badly without a stable, warm chamber. Keep the filament dry, as PC absorbs moisture readily. Full mechanical and thermal property values (tested to ISO 527, ISO 178, ISO 75, and ISO 1183) are listed in the Specifications tab below.
Recommended print settings
| Parameter | Recommended value |
|---|---|
| Nozzle temperature | 260°C – 280°C |
| Build plate temperature | 90°C – 110°C |
| Chamber / enclosure | Required |
| Print speed | 20 – 50 mm/s |
| Cooling fan | Off or low |
| Nozzle type | Hardened steel or brass |

Typical applications
Where production and engineering teams run Creatbot PC Filament.
Storage & handling
Store Creatbot PC Filament in a cool, dry place inside its original sealed bag with the desiccant. Polycarbonate is strongly hygroscopic — dry it before printing and use a dry box during printing, or absorbed moisture causes bubbling, stringing, and a sharp drop in part strength.
