3DXTech 3DXMAXPC PelletsHigh-Strength, High-Heat Polycarbonate — Make Your Own Filament or Pellet-Print in Bulk
One of the strongest, highest-temperature printable polymers.
3DXMAX™ PC (Polycarbonate) is prized for outstanding strength, toughness, high heat resistance, and optical clarity. It demands high extrusion temperatures and thorough drying — a job well suited to bulk pellets on a high-temp home extruder or pellet-fed printer. Made in the USA. Full specifications →

Make your own filament — or feed a pellet printer — with genuine 3DXTech PC.
3DXMAX™ PC (Polycarbonate) is prized for outstanding strength, toughness, high heat resistance, and optical clarity. It demands high extrusion temperatures and thorough drying — a job well suited to bulk pellets on a high-temp home extruder or pellet-fed printer.
From pellets to spooled filament — on your own extruder.
Full control of your material supply, at bulk pricing.
A home filament extruder turns these pellets into 1.75 or 2.85 mm PC filament at a fraction of spooled-filament cost — ideal for high-volume printing, custom colors, or research. Pre-dry the resin, dial in your extruder, and you have a steady supply of genuine 3DXTech PC. Prefer to skip the spool? Feed the pellets directly into a pellet-fed printer.
One of the strongest, highest-temperature printable polymers.
Full mechanical data for 3DXMAX™ PC is available from Rev1 on request.
Among the strongest, most impact-resistant printable polymers.
Withstands far higher service temperatures than ABS or PETG.
Naturally clear resin for light-guiding and translucent parts.
Needs 260–280 °C extrusion and thorough drying — pellets suit high-temp extruders.
10 & 25 kg pails — lower cost per kg for premium PC.
Extrude your own PC filament or feed a high-temp pellet printer.
Pre-dry, then extrude — simple bulk processing.
3DXTech's guidance for turning PC pellets into filament or feeding a pellet printer.
Dry the resin before extrusion. A dedicated dryer or toaster oven works — not the kitchen oven.
3DXTech's recommended melt range for extruding these pellets.
Wet resin extrudes with bubbles in the filament — if you see them, dry the pellets longer.
Produce 1.75 or 2.85 mm filament with a desktop filament extruder.
Feed straight into a pellet-fed 3D printer for large-format or high-throughput work.
PC parts — at bulk volume.
Running from pellets makes high-volume production and large-format pellet printing far more economical than spooled filament.
When do pellets make sense?
These pellets are the same 3DXMAX™ PC resin as spooled PC filament. Choose pellets for the lowest cost per kg, pellet-fed printing, or custom filament extrusion; choose spooled filament when you want to load and print with no extra equipment. Request the full data sheet for exact mechanical figures.
| PC Pellets | Spooled PC Filament | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost per kg | Lowest | Higher |
| Ready to print | Needs extruder / pellet printer | Load and go |
| Best volume | High / bulk | Low–medium |
| Custom filament (color / diameter) | Yes | No |
| Format | 10 kg / 25 kg pails | 1 kg spools |
Same 3DXMAX™ PC resin in both formats; request the data sheet for exact properties. Prices vary by pail size and date.

FAQ
3DXTech PC Pellets — Common Questions
What are PC pellets for?
Making your own PC filament on a home filament extruder, or feeding a pellet-fed 3D printer directly. They are also used for injection molding and materials research. Bulk pellets are the most economical way to run PC at volume.
How do I process them?
Pre-dry at 125 °C for 4 hours, then extrude at 260–280 °C. Drying is essential — wet resin extrudes with bubbles in the filament.
Is this the same PC as your spooled filament?
Yes — it is the same USA-made 3DXMAX™ PC resin, just in bulk pellet form. The published property data applies to both.
What sizes are available?
10 kg / 25 kg pails, in clear. Ask us about colors and larger volumes.
Where can I get the mechanical data?
The full 3DXMAX™ PC technical data sheet is available from Rev1 on request — use any “Request the TDS” button on this page.
Anything special about processing?
PC is highly hygroscopic — dry thoroughly (125 °C / 4 h) and run a high-temperature extruder.
