Product Details
We've tracked down the top - notch Black PLA filament right here in Australia! This 1kg reel holds 1.75mm Black PLA (polylactic acid) plastic filament, perfect for 3D printing. As a bioplastic, PLA offers a smooth surface finish, making it a great all - around filament. It's a breeze to print with and even biodegradable! Compared to other materials, PLA has very little warping and shrinking. That makes it super suitable for printing objects with flat surfaces, sharp angles, or when you need a tight fit. PLA filament is commonly used for quickly creating prototypes, educational and architectural models, and artifact replicas. It also supports various post - processing techniques, which is why it's a hit among those who want to paint their printed objects, like costume props and figurines. The filament comes on a heavy - duty plastic reel, vacuum - sealed to keep moisture out. But remember, PLA is a bit brittle, so it's not the best for thin, high - strength applications.
Using this 1.75mm Black PLA filament for 3D printing is easy. Just load the 1kg reel onto your 3D printer as you normally would with other filaments. When printing, you'll notice it goes on smoothly and quickly due to its low warping and shrinking properties. For best results, keep your printer settings appropriate for PLA material. After printing, if you want to give your objects a new look, you can use various post - processing methods like painting. This filament is great for creating prototypes, models, and replicas. However, be aware that PLA is relatively brittle. So, avoid using it for thin parts that need to be very strong. To keep the filament in good condition, store it in its original vacuum - sealed heavy - duty plastic reel. This will prevent moisture from getting in and affecting the quality of the filament. If you open the seal, try to use it up within a reasonable time frame and keep it in a dry place.
