PLA Filament

This listing not only serves as a space to purchase PLA filament, but a place to view all our available colors used throughout our website.

Think of each category as a type of finish.

Each filament listed is rated for use between 190ºC and 250ºC(375ºF - 475ºF), every printer and nozzle is calibrated differently and one standard temperature does not necessarily work in every scenario, it is up to the user to find the best temperatures based on use.

Below are advanced characteristics for each Filament Finish and our personal guidelines for each filament.

************

Standard PLA

Simplistic colors and available for a cheaper price. Generally used for beginning enthusiasts and utility use. Print quality, strength, and temperature an all around average jack of all trades.

Frosty PLA

Lighter tones with a fun twist of twinkle to them! A fun vibrant collection that is sure to stand out in any light! Quality and strength are average, while we recommend using a hotter temperature to get the color to contrast better with the twinkle.

Glass PLA

Semi-transparent for a fun change of pace! Glass PLA work great for thin pieces meant to be seen through. The type of infill used can cause quite the effect on the outer walls due to the transparency. Print quality is still average, while the strength diminishes slightly; it is recommended to use a lower than average temperature if print quality is an issue, but higher temperatures will allow it to be more transparent if your printer can handle it.

Glow in the Dark PLA

A fan favorite! However! Glow in the Dark is ABRASIVE! Recommended only if you use a hardened steel nozzle or are okay with frequently changing your nozzles. Available in Translucent Green, Blue, and Rainbow or Solid Colors! Print quality is lower, strength is increased, and temperatures above average.

Iridescence PLA

A trickster amongst the stars! Subtle shades of the same color tone change depending on the view angle. Our Purple Iridescence looks like a solid purple, but also looks emerald green at times. Print quality is above average, with the strength being average; temperature should be average unless you can push higher temperatures, the higher the temp the more shine we can achieve.

Matte PLA

A solid contender against Standard PLA but a different shade of life! Quality is average, strength is average, and print temperature is average. That was easy!

Metallic PLA

Bold, metallic tones, some with a hint of twinkle to appear futuristic. Generally easy to print with, while others can be difficult. Print quality is average, strength is average, and temperature is generally above average, but again some require slower speeds and temps.

Silk PLA

Soft in feel, but bright in color! A fan favorite, Silk PLA has found it's place amongst the top because of the variety available. Silk PLA quality varies based on temperature, too hot of a nozzle can find you with too much stringing! Silk Strength is LOW, we recommend only using Silk Filament for "display" models. The temperature for Silk PLA should be below average. Some of you may benefit from lowering print speed too.

Sparkling PLA

Shining bright like a diamond is the Sparkling PLA! With large glitter flakes infused into the filament, this Sparkling PLA is a huge hit because the glitter is melted into the plastic! No mess everywhere! Print quality is lower, strength is increased, and temperature is above average.

Dual PLA

A single strand of filament, split in the middle, featuring 2 colors on each half of the strand. This provides a unique look allowing the same model to have 2 different color's depending on which direction you look from. Dual PLA comes in Iridescence, Matte, Silk, and Standard base colors. Dual PLA has it's own category for simplicity.

Tri PLA

A single strand of filament, split into thirds, featuring 3 colors on each third of the strand. Very similar to Dual PLA, except an extra color added for more flair! Tri PLA comes in Iridescence, Matte, Silk, and Standard base colors. Tri PLA has it's own category for simplicity.

Gradient PLA

A roll of filament that transitions slowly from one color to the next the further we get through the roll. The final result ends with the print being one color at the base of the model, and a different color at the top of the model. Gradient comes in Iridescence, Matte, Silk, and Standard base colors. *Rainbow Gradients are the only Gradients that can be found in their respective Filament Finish category*
