Heat resistant 3D printing material

My 3D prints need to withstand temperatures up to 150 degrees. What material should I choose?

Link copied
Solved by Nikolaus Mroncz
Here, the choice largely depends on what type of material (metal or plastic) your part needs to be made of. For plastic parts, I would recommend the following materials:
  • ULTEM 9085 and ULTEM 1010 for FDM
  • PA 12 for SLS or MJF
  • Heat-resistant ones like PC for SLA after thermal post-processing
  • CE 221 (Cyanate Ester) for Carbon DLS
For metal parts, the heat-resistant materials I would recommend for DMLS are:
  • Aluminium AlSi10Mg
  • Stainless steel 316L
  • Inconel 718
You can check out our dedicated article on heat-resistant materials for 3D printing and compare the properties of the materials.
