🔥 QTS High Temp PLA Heat Resistant Filament

137°C Heat Deflection Temperature | ABS-Level Performance | Easy to Print, Odorless | Ideal for Functional Parts

🎯 6 Core Advantages

1️⃣ Ultimate Heat Resistance (137°C Heat Deflection Temperature)

QTS High Temp PLA uses a proprietary formula with a heat deflection temperature of 137°C, far exceeding standard PLA (60-65°C). Even in high-temperature environments, it maintains structural integrity, perfectly meeting the demands of automotive engine compartments, industrial equipment, and other high-temperature applications.

2️⃣ Easy to Print, Low Shrinkage (Retains PLA Advantages)

Unlike ABS's high printing difficulty, QTS High Temp PLA completely retains PLA's ease-of-print characteristics:

• Odorless: No pungent smell during printing, suitable for indoor use
• Low Shrinkage: Shrinkage rate < 1%, high dimensional accuracy, no enclosed chamber needed
• High Success Rate: Even beginners can easily achieve successful prints
• Fast Cooling: Quick printing speed, short production time

3️⃣ Powerful Mechanical Performance (Strength Doubles After Heat Treatment)

After heat treatment activation, QTS High Temp PLA's mechanical performance increases dramatically:

4️⃣ Universal Printing Parameters (Compatible with All Printer Brands)

QTS High Temp PLA uses standard PLA printing parameters. Regardless of which printer brand you use (Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality.. etc.), simply select standard PLA parameters:

5️⃣ Heat Treatment Activation (Strongly Recommend Using Convection Oven)

To maximize QTS High Temp PLA's mechanical performance, we strongly recommend using a convection oven (with hot air circulation) for heat treatment. Hot air circulation ensures uniform heating and activates the material's internal structure for optimal performance:

🔥 Recommended Heat Treatment Method: Convection Oven

1. Preparation:
   • Use a convection oven with hot air circulation (industrial or kitchen oven)
   • Place parts on a baking tray, avoid stacking
   • Ensure air circulation inside the oven
2. Heat Treatment Plan A (Standard Activation):
   • Temperature: 120°C
   • Duration: 10 minutes
   • Effect: Suitable for general functional parts
3. Heat Treatment Plan B (Deep Activation):
   • Temperature: 130°C
   • Duration: 15 minutes
   • Effect: Maximizes mechanical performance, suitable for high-load applications
4. Cooling:
   • Remove and let cool naturally to room temperature
   • Avoid rapid cooling (such as ice water immersion)
   • Ready to use after cooling is complete

6️⃣ Multiple Color Options (3 Standard Colors)

QTS High Temp PLA offers 3 practical colors for different application needs:

• Pure White V2: Suitable for white parts, housings, standard applications
• Cream White V2: Soft tone, suitable for consumer products, decorative parts
• Carbon Black: Professional industrial color, suitable for mechanical parts, outdoor applications

❓ 6 Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What's the difference between High Temp PLA and standard PLA?

A: The main difference is heat resistance. Standard PLA has a heat deflection temperature of about 60-65°C, while High Temp PLA reaches 137°C. Additionally, High Temp PLA is specially formulated to provide ABS-level performance while retaining PLA's easy-print characteristics.

Q2: Is heat treatment mandatory?

A: Not necessarily. If your application doesn't involve high temperatures or high loads, you can use untreated parts directly. However, for optimal mechanical performance, especially for load-bearing parts, we strongly recommend convection oven heat treatment. Performance improvement can reach up to 4-fold.

Q3: Can I use a microwave or conventional oven for heat treatment?

A: Not recommended. Microwaves cause uneven heating, and conventional ovens (without hot air circulation) don't work well. We strongly recommend using a convection oven with hot air circulation for uniform heating and optimal results.

Q4: Do I need special printing parameters?

A: Not at all! QTS High Temp PLA uses standard PLA printing parameters. Regardless of printer brand, simply select standard PLA parameters for perfect printing. No modifications or special settings needed.

Q5: Is High Temp PLA suitable for food contact?

A: Not recommended. Although High Temp PLA is 100% PLA material, 3D printed parts have rough surfaces that easily trap contaminants, making them unsuitable for direct food contact. For food contact applications, surface treatment or food-grade coating is required.

Q6: How do I properly store High Temp PLA filament?

A: Recommended storage conditions:

• Temperature: 15-25°C
• Humidity: < 50% RH
• Avoid direct sunlight
• Store sealed (original vacuum-sealed packaging is best)
• For long-term storage, store with desiccant
