Material choice for 3D print with temperature requirements

Hi, I’m in search of a 3D printing material for serial production that can withstand temperatures up to 85°C. Could you please recommend the most cost-effective options among those that you offer that meet these specifications? thank you

Hi and thank you for your question! For serial production or higher quantities we prefer MJF and PA12. It withstands heat easy above 100°C and more. For an overview and other options, we also have an interesting article here: https://xometry.pro/en-eu/articles/3d-printing-materials-heat-resistant/
