PLA filament

3DTrcek PLA Filament

Popular among thousands of creators for its reliable quality. Made in Slovenia, with over 10 years of experience in 3D filament manufacturing and 55 years in plastic processing. Easy to print with, PLA is an excellent choice for both beginners and professionals.

Variety of Colours:

Available in 50 different colors and surface finishes:

Satin - Semi-gloss surface finish (gold, turquoise, pink)
Metallic - Metallic surface shine finish (anthracite, bronze, blue)
Glitter - With added micro-particles of glitter that sparkle in the light (black, grey, transparent)
Neon - Bright, vivid colors (yellow, orange, red, green)
Transparent - Highly transparent colors (natural, orange, green, blue, skin, glitter)
Mineral - Decorative stone appearance (marble, opal, pearl)
Luminescent - For products that glow in the dark

Easy Printing:

3DTrcek PLA filament has very low shrinkage during printing, resulting in excellent dimensional stability and minimal warping during cooling. It also boasts good layer and base adhesion, ensuring prints do not detach from the bed.

Quality Guarantee:

Precise mechanical winding and thorough inspection ensure that the filaments do not tangle. Each spool is vacuum-packed with a desiccant within 5 minutes of production, ensuring long-lasting quality. The filament contains no recycled material, ensuring a stable diameter of 1.75mm +/- 0.03 mm and minimal ovality.

Compatibility:

With over 10 years of experience in developing 3D filaments, 3DTrcek produces only the best PLA filaments, ensuring exceptional results on all popular FDM printers such as Bambu Lab, Creality, Prusa, Anycubic, Elegoo, etc.

Chemical, Mechanical, and Thermal Properties:

PLA filament offers good water resistance but is not chemically resistant or UV stable. It features high strength and hardness but is brittle, meaning it does not handle dynamic or prolonged loads well. It melts at low temperatures, making it easy to print, but does not tolerate high temperatures, softening at 60°C.

Post-processing:

PLA is easy to post-process with abrasive tools, and its chemical composition allows for vapor smoothing with MEK solvents.

Storage:

Store 3DTrcek PLA filament in a dry, dark place in an airtight bag with a desiccant at temperatures between 0°C and 40°C. PLA absorbs moisture very slowly, but if the filament becomes damp, dry it in a filament dryer or an oven at 50°C for 4 to 6 hours before use.

Packaging:

Available in 50g, 250g, 400g, 1kg, 2.4kg, 5kg, and 10kg spools. Contact us at [email protected] for orders of the larger spools in specific colors.

Printing Recommendations:

PLA does not require special equipment for 3D printing, allowing the use of standard nozzles, and is not sensitive to extruder type. As it hardly warps during printing, it can be printed on non-enclosed printers.

*Settings for Bambulab P1S equipped with a 0.4mm nozzle and textured PEI base plate.

** Recommended settings serve as a starting point for optimal print configuration. Although they usually work for most printers, we recommend experimenting outside these parameters based on the specific properties of your printer.

FAQ:

Are 3DTrcek filaments compatible with the Bambu Lab AMS system?

Yes, the filaments are compatible with all popular FDM printers and the Bambu Lab AMS system.

Is PLA filament food safe?

Pure PLA is chemically safe, but the 3D printing process is not. Bacteria can also accumulate in the gaps between the layers in 3D prints.

Do you take back failed prints and recycle them?

We currently do not have the technology for recycling, but we are working to make this possible in the near future.
