This PLA (polylactic acid) 3D Printer Filament from our high-quality own brand RS PRO is the most popular 3D printing filament material and it is the best material for getting started with your 3D printer.
Benefits
- Good tensile strength and surface quality, easy to work with at high print speed
- User-friendly for both home and office environments
- PLA filament allows the creation of high-resolution parts
- Due to the low shrinkage factor, PLA will not deform after cooling
- Hardens quickly
- Minimal thermal tension
- Minimal deformation
- Acetone resistant
- Semi-matte finish
- Does not require a heated bed, however, if you have a heated bed the recommended temperature is ± 50-60˚C
Features
- Filament Diameter: 2.85 mm
- Melting temperature: 210°C
- Heat distortion temperature HDT B (0,45MPa): 95°C
- Compatible with any printer that uses 2.85 mm filament
Applications
- Household tools
- Educational projects
- Show objects
- Prototyping

Once you have purchased your filament, it is important to store it correctly to maintain its quality. Over time the plastic will absorb moisture from the air, creating small water bubbles in the filament. These bubbles when heated in the extruder nozzle quickly reach boiling point, spoiling the print. The use of desiccant dehumidifiers to absorb the moisture is highly recommended.
