2.85mm PLA Filament

Compatibility Notice:
Ensure your 3D printer is compatible with 2.85mm filament before purchasing, as this diameter is only compatible with specific models.

Material Overview:
Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a popular 3D printing filament known for its environmentally friendly properties. Derived from renewable resources like beetroot, potatoes, and corn starch, PLA is biodegradable, making it a sustainable choice for 3D printing projects.

Key Features:

• Thermoplastic Properties: PLA is a thermoplastic, meaning it becomes soft when heated and can be easily molded into various shapes. It naturally occurs as a transparent material but can be colored to achieve different levels of opacity.
• Easy Printing: PLA is compatible with most 3D printers and does not require a heated bed, making it an accessible option for beginners and experienced users alike. It is ideal for creating display objects and general household items.
• Aesthetics: PLA prints with a glossy finish, adding a polished look to your creations. Additionally, PLA has a relatively mild and sweet smell during printing, which is often preferred over the stronger, more unpleasant odor of ABS.
• Storage Recommendations: To maintain the quality of your PLA filament, it is recommended to store it in a cool, dry place. Exposure to moisture can cause discoloration and affect the filament's performance.
