Spectrum 80540 3D filament, PC/PTFE, 1,75mm, 750g,, NATURAL

Product description

Resistance to High Temperatures and Abrasion

Spectrum PC/PTFE is a modern composite fiber based on polycarbonate (PC) with the addition of PTFE, commonly known as Teflon. High demand and limited availability of materials for additive manufacturing with very good mechanical properties, with a special emphasis on high abrasion resistance, have initiated efforts to combine the very good properties of PC and PTFE. Polycarbonate provides high mechanical resistance and PTFE complements it by reducing wear and friction.

The applied modifications ensure improved thermal stability of printed parts, enhanced electrical insulation properties, and achieve higher chemical and water resistance. Thanks to its properties, Spectrum PC/PTFE filament is a material with a wide range of industrial applications. Prints made from PC/PTFE filament can be machined to achieve a perfectly smooth surface. The use of this type of material allows for the production of parts with relatively complex geometry while maintaining relatively high dimensional accuracy.

From a technical perspective, the highly attractive properties of Spectrum PC/PTFE filament can be achieved by adhering to the basic storage rules for this type of material (in a dry and dark place with humidity below 15%). To achieve the best properties of the printed object, it is recommended to dry the material before starting work.
