A 3D printer without filament is like a regular printer without paper or ink. Even if your printer comes with some filament, you might need a new one after lots of printing. That's why we offer a full range of 3D printing filaments in various colors! This 1KG spool of 1.75mm blue PLA filament is a top - notch basic material for 3D printers, especially great for PrintrBot Simples. Before buying, always check your printer's compatible diameter and filament type. PLA is a bioplastic made from renewable natural resources. It's biodegradable in commercial compost facilities, so you can print with an eco - friendly conscience. Printing with PLA causes less warping and it works best when extruded between 160°C and 220°C.
