PLA - pink - Fillament for 3D-Printers PLA (Polylactic Acid) is one of the most popular types
of filament used in 3D printing. It is a plastic material that is easy to print with due to its
lower melting temperature and minimal risk of warping making it suitable for beginners. PLA
produces detailed and precise prints with a smooth surface but has limited heat resistance and
durability compared to other materials like ABS. It is ideal for prototypes models and
decorative items. Weight: 1 kg. Length: 120 m. Diameter: 3 ± 0 05 mm. Melting temperature: 190
- 220 °C. Melting temperature refers to the temperature at which a filament material for a 3D
printer starts to melt and becomes fluid enough to be extruded through the printer's nozzle. It
is a critical parameter as the correct melting temperature ensures a stable flow rate and good
adhesion between the printed layers. Too low a temperature can result in under-extrusion and
weak print quality while too high a temperature can cause over-melting leading to poor detail
and material degradation. Density (at 21.5 °C): 1 25 g cm³. Density tells how heavy a material
is relative to its size. For 3D printer filament it means how much the finished print will
weigh. It also affects how solid and strong the print will be. A higher density can result in
heavier and stronger prints while a lower density gives lighter prints. It also impacts how
the filament melts and lays down during printing. Impact strength: 5 KJ m². Impact Strength (KJ
m²) indicates how much energy a material can absorb upon impact before breaking. For 3D printer
filaments it shows how resistant the material is to shocks. A higher value means the material
is more robust and can withstand greater impacts without breaking. Tensile strength: 20 %.
Tensile strength (%) indicates how much a material can stretch or deform before it breaks. For
3D printer filament it means how much a printed item can bend or stretch before it fails. This
is an important property as it shows how flexible or brittle the printed object will be. A
higher percentage of tensile break means the material can stretch more making it more flexible
and less likely to break under stress. Temperature resistance: 50 °C. before deformation
Temperature resistance indicates how much heat a filament can withstand before it starts to
lose its shape and deform. For 3D printer filament this means how stable the printed object
will be when exposed to heat. This is important when using printed parts in warm environments
as high temperature resistance ensures that the print maintains its shape and function under
stress. Yield Strength at 50 mm min: : 45 MPa (3D printing) Yield Strength at 50 mm min
indicates the stress a material can withstand while being stretched at a rate of 50 mm min
before it starts to deform permanently. It shows how strong a printed object is before it loses
its shape and sustains permanent damage. This property is important for understanding how
durable a print will be under stress. Melt flow index: 5. Melt Flow Index (MFI) indicates how
easily a thermoplastic material flows when melted. It describes how quickly the material can be
extruded from a 3D printer nozzle under specific conditions. A higher Melt Flow Index means the
material flows more easily which can be useful for faster printing but may also affect the
strength of the final product. Spool: 200mm outer diameter & 53mm inner diameter & 67mm height
