OzFDM PC-ABS Filament
OzFDM PC-ABS Sparkling combines the heat resistance and strength of polycarbonate with the toughness and practical print performance of ABS. This balanced engineering blend produces durable parts capable of withstanding mechanical pressure, repeated use and elevated operating temperatures.
With a heat deflection temperature of 123°C, PC-ABS is well suited to automotive components, protective housings, mechanical assemblies, workshop equipment and functional prototypes. Its excellent impact resistance helps printed parts absorb force without cracking or becoming excessively brittle.
The subtle sparkling finish gives functional parts a refined appearance while maintaining the performance expected from an engineering material. PC-ABS prints best in an enclosed printer with stable chamber temperatures, reliable bed adhesion and controlled cooling.
Three Essential Engineering Shades
PC-ABS Colour Range
The OzFDM PC-ABS range is available in three versatile shades: Black, White and Natural.
Black provides a clean and professional appearance suited to automotive parts, machinery and technical components. White offers a bright finish that makes printed details easy to inspect, while Natural provides a neutral appearance suited to prototypes and practical applications.
All three shades deliver the same dependable PC-ABS performance, allowing you to select the finish that best suits your project.
AMS Compatibility and Reliable Feeding
PC-ABS Sparkling can be used with AMS systems that support both polycarbonate and ABS materials, provided the spool fits correctly. Its firm filament structure supports smooth feeding, controlled retraction and reliable automated material changes.
The eight colour options can be combined for identification systems, detailed components and multicolour engineering projects. Non OzFDM filament profiles may need to be manually configured within your printer software.
AMS compatibility does not guarantee that the connected printer can process PC-ABS. Always confirm that your printer offers the required nozzle temperature, heated bed and enclosed printing environment before use.
Strength, Stability and Dependable Performance
Built for Heat, Impact and Everyday Performance
Stable Performance in Warmer Environments
PC-ABS offers a heat deflection temperature of 123°C, allowing printed parts to maintain their shape in conditions where standard PLA and many general purpose materials may soften or deform.
This makes it suitable for automotive interiors, electronic housings, machinery components and workshop applications exposed to elevated temperatures.
Annealing the finished model at 100°C for one to three hours may further improve its strength and thermal stability.
Durable Parts That Withstand Regular Use
The polycarbonate component provides strength and impact resistance, while ABS contributes toughness and practical durability.
Together, they create parts that can absorb force, vibration and repeated handling without fracturing easily.
This combination is ideal for protective enclosures, brackets, fixtures, mechanical assemblies and functional prototypes.
PC-ABS provides dependable performance for parts that must remain strong throughout regular use.
Professional Results With Added Visual Depth
The sparkling finish adds subtle dimension and visual interest to printed surfaces without distracting from the technical appearance of the material.
It highlights curves and details while helping soften the appearance of visible layer lines.
Available in eight colours, the range gives functional parts a considered, professionally finished look.
It is an excellent option for projects that require engineering performance alongside a more distinctive presentation.
As this is a new addition to the OzFDM range, complete technical specifications are not yet available. Detailed printing settings and performance information will be added once testing has been completed. Please check back soon for updates.
