PLA Fluorescent - yellow - 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: 330 m. Diameter: 1 75 ± 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
