I have made a coupler in Duratron.
working temperature 310 ° C.
Cool! (Well, not literally)
I had thought 260C would already be on the limit for PLA - but you got good prints with 310C?
How easy/difficult is it to machine Duratron?

duratron is for 170°c continius
peek 250°c continius, does anyone try in peek?
Anyone ever did check the PEEK HT?:
PEEK HT is also available as a glass filled material
The new Victrex® PEEK ST material has been designed to give all the benefits of Victrex PEEK 450 with the additional that the operating temperature can be taken to over 300°C, improved mechanical performance between 150-200° C is particular enhancement in PEEK ST over the standard PEEK polymer materials. Reinforced materials are available with glass and carbon as a filler, and can be used up to 380°C.

I think @swordriff has done some tests with Peek.
PLA sticks to peek like flies to sh**.

hi,
I think I found the solution to print more than 260 without burning the coupler.

Here pictures of my first test with pla.

I've also tried it with no problem with XT ColorFabb color.
I have to do more tests.
see you soon. :-P
