Features

• Polylactic acid resin has little warping, so you can output without a heat bed. When using a heat bed, the recommended temperature is ±35 → 60 C.　PLA can be used with any popular desktop FDM or FFF technology 3D printer.
• Filament for RS Pro 3D Printer PLA 2.85 mm 2.3 kg
• Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable plastic produced from renewable natural sources and is one of the most common materials used in 3D printing. Plastics such as PLA are the most common 3D printed materials because of their simplicity, high dimensional accuracy, and low cost. PLA is one of the most environmentally friendly filaments because it can be molded at low temperatures and does not require a heat bed.　PLA is a high-grade PLA type filament that is robust and easy to use, making it ideal for 3D printing. With slight modifications, the filament retains typical PLA properties while becoming more robust and less brittle. PLA has a low shrinkage rate and does not deform after cooling.　This RS Pro series PLA 3D printed material is available in a variety of colors.　; 125-4336 125-4336 - Black; 125-4338 125-4338 - White; 125-4340 125-4340 - Blue; 125-4342 125-4342 - Red; 125-4344 125-4344 - Silver
• Features and benefits
• Sturdier and less brittle than regular PLA
• Easier output at low temperatures
• Less warping
• Unlike ABS filaments, PLA is derived from crops such as corn and sugarcane and is biodegradable
• Less odor
• Long retention period To maintain filament quality, it is important to store this filament correctly. Over time, the plastic absorbs moisture from the air, creating small bubbles in the filament. When these bubbles are heated by the extruder nozzle, they quickly reach a boiling point and damage the shape. We strongly recommend using a desiccant dehumidifier that absorbs moisture.　Storage Place Keep away from UV rays in a cool, dry place (15 → 25 C). This greatly improves shelf life.
