The PLA filament Gray 1.75 mm 500 g is a high-quality product produced in the Netherlands. Real filaments ensure that the PLA is of high quality and has a consistent diameter, providing you with the best 3D printing experience. PLA is ideal for beginners in 3D printing, as well as for more advanced users since it is easy to use and delivers impressive results.
The PLA filament is available in many shades, while varied types are also available under the Real brand. PLA (polylactic acid) is one of the oldest and most commonly used materials in the 3D printing community, mainly due to its advantages as a flexible and environmentally friendly thermoplastic. It is organic and biodegradable, and can easily be combined with other components to influence its final properties, such as flexibility and metallic sheen.
The clear Real PLA has a translucent white color, and the printing temperature ranges between 195 - 205 degrees (depending on the characteristics of the hot end). The darker shades of Real may require a few extra degrees of temperature due to the coloring process. The filament should extrude smoothly and appear slightly glossy. PLA is denser and more durable than ABS, but it is more brittle and susceptible to cracking under high loads. Additionally, it is less resistant to external elements (UV light and water) compared to other common thermoplastics.
PLA can be printed well on a non-heated surface using Blue Painters or Kapton tape, as well as most 3D printing adhesives. For convenience, it is recommended to use sprays such as 3DLAC on a glass surface. A low bed temperature between 50 - 60 degrees reduces the likelihood of warping and makes it easier to remove the finished printed object once the printing surface cools down.
