Heat-resistant, high-impact and food-safe filament from Multec for almost every application - available in different colors
Without the right material, you cannot produce a high-quality workpiece - this is the same with 3D printing as with other production processes. Not every filament available on the market for the FDM printing process is therefore suitable for creating high-quality prints. PLA-HT (HT for high temperature) Multec offers a filament that also meets the highest demands. The colors black, white and blue are available from stock, special colors can be produced on request from an order quantity of 30 kg.
Heat resistant, food safe and impact resistant
PLA (polylactide) is the material of choice for many FDM users: With no unpleasant odors and much easier to process than ABS, this biologically based plastic is the material for the vast majority of printed objects.
And yet conventional PLA also has some disadvantages.
PLA objects are quite brittle and sensitive to temperatures above 60° Celsius. Applications that are exposed to direct sunlight or in the vicinity of lamps and motors, for example, are therefore often ruled out. This is different with the new PLA-HT from Multec. It is heat-resistant up to 90° Celsius and is therefore also suitable for components in an environment with higher temperatures. It is also characterized by a notched impact strength (the resistance of a material to impact stress) that is ten times higher than that of conventional PLA and in this respect it even clearly surpasses ABS.
Perfect to process
In addition to the higher thermal and dynamic resilience, PLA-HT can be processed perfectly and produces an excellent print image.
PLA-HT can usually be processed with the standard settings on the same printers as normal PLA and does not cause any printing problems such as warping/shrinkage.
Customer reference - Ramp for conveyor vehicle
The ramps are used to position trolleys and were first milled from POM by the customer and then printed with PLA-HT.
The comparison photo shows the extreme wear resistance of Multec PLA-HT in contrast to the milled POM component.
The service life of PLA-HT is remarkable at 4 months in contrast to only 8 hours with POM! The component was printed by the customer on a Multec M800 industrial 3D printer.
Our customer's repair manager:
“The ramps are used to position conveyor vehicles.
The axle that drives in here has an axle load of approx. 500 kg . I myself didn't think it would work at all, but I found it very interesting that the CNC-manufactured version only lasts 8 hours and promotes the topic of 3D printing even more here in the company".

Food safe and "made in Germany"
PLA-HT is absolutely food-safe, which is guaranteed by the renowned plastics manufacturer who produces the material for Multec in Germany.
The filament is therefore also ideal for printing parts for use in the kitchen and for toys that children like to put in their mouths. Customers swear by Multec's PLA-HT. The advantages of the PLA-HT from Multec are convincing. Customers are extremely positive: “Congratulations on your very successful product, the High Temp PLA filament! As a designer of a small multicopter, I was looking for an easily printable, temperature-resistant, tough-elastic material. Your PLA passed all tests with flying colours. The advantages: no deformation when exposed to sunlight in the car while the copter is being transported, absolute dimensional accuracy, tough elastic, absolutely crash-proof, pleasant colour, great print result, standard printer settings are not changed," says Georg Lakeit. And Dimitri Milonas comments: “Basically, I currently print all my parts with Multec PLA-HT material. The main advantage lies in the easily detachable support material and the good mechanical properties. It should also be mentioned that the material adheres very well to my print bed and there are hardly any detachments, as well as the neutral and professional print image, and the feel is also very pleasant. The fracture behavior is also remarkable. The material doesn't splinter, which is why I made a motorcycle part (seat hump): the TÜV didn't criticize the material..."
Ideal filament
Whether for printed parts in the hobby or in commercial use: PLA-HT from Multec is ideal for almost all applications and makes FDM printing even more diverse and easier.
