PLA FLEX Red 3D Filament
Experience an enhanced 3D Printer experience with the industry leading PLA FLEX Filament from TM3D. Available in the diameter 1.75mm, please note this when ordering.
Features of PLA FLEX 3D Filament:
Flexibility: PLA FLEX filament is designed to offer more bendability and flexibility than standard PLA. This makes it suitable for printing objects that require some degree of bending or flexibility, such as phone cases, hinges, and flexible joints.
Easy to print: Like traditional PLA, PLA FLEX is known for its ease of use. It has a lower tendency to warp compared to other flexible materials, resulting in a more stable printing experience and fewer failed prints.
Biodegradable and environmentally friendly: PLA is made from renewable raw materials such as corn starch or sugarcane. It is biodegradable under industrial composting conditions, making it a more environmentally friendly option compared to petroleum-based plastics.
Good surface quality: Prints made with PLA have a glossy finish and can be very detailed, making it a popular choice for cosmetic prints and prototypes that require a good surface finish.
Less warping: Warping (the bending of the print during cooling) is a common problem in 3D printing, but PLA tends to warp less compared to other materials like ABS. This makes it easier to print large and complex models without deformation.
Scent: During printing, PLA Flex emits a light, sweet smell, unlike the strong odors that some other plastics can produce. This makes using PLA in enclosed spaces more pleasant.
Applications:
- Decorative objects and artworks
- Functional prototypes and parts
- Educational projects
- Architectural models
- Fashion accessories
Note: not every extruder is suitable for printing flexible filament. Does not work with the AMS system from Bambulab.
