PLA - Galaxy (Glitter) Purple 3D Filament
Experience an enhanced 3D Printer experience with the industry leading PLA Galaxy (Glitter) Filament from TM3D. Available in diameters of 1.75mm and 2.85mm, please take note of this when ordering.
Features of PLA - Galaxy 3D Printer Filament:
- Glitter effect: The added glitter in the PLA Galaxy filament provides a brilliant and shiny finish to the printed objects. This makes it ideal for decorative items or projects where visual impact is desired.
- Good printability: Just like standard PLA, PLA Galaxy is easy to print, with a lower tendency to warp than other materials. It adheres well to the print bed and does not require a heated bed, although this can contribute to even better adhesion.
- Print temperature: The recommended print temperature for PLA Galaxy generally lies between 190°C and 220°C. This may vary somewhat depending on the specific printer and environmental conditions.
Applications of PLA Galaxy (Glitter) 3D Filament:
- Decorative objects: Creating sparkling statues, models and works of art that have a visual impact.
- Jewelry and fashion accessories: Printing unique, glittering jewelry such as earrings, necklaces and brooches.
- Party decorations: Making personalized, glittery decorations for events and parties, such as Christmas ornaments or birthday decorations.
- Prototypes and models: The use of glitter effect to add a distinctive finish to prototypes or models, especially in the design and architecture sectors.
Note: Due to the glitter in PLA Galaxy, nozzles may wear out more than with standard PLA filament. When printing multiple projects in succession, it is recommended to use a wear-resistant nozzle, such as a hardened steel nozzle, to minimize wear and maintain consistent results.

Frequently asked questions
Got a question?
Which filament material should I choose for my 3D printer?
The material you choose depends on the intended use and the desired properties of the end product. Some popular filament options include PLA (biodegradable and easy to print), ABS (strong and impact resistant), PETG (durable and flexible), and TPU (flexible and elastic). Consider the desired strength, flexibility, temperature resistance and special properties when making your choice.
Which filament diameter should I buy?
The filament diameter must match the specifications of your 3D printer. The most common diameters are 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm. Check your printer's manual or the specifications on the manufacturer's website to find out which diameter is suitable.
What is the difference between PLA and ABS filament?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) and ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) are both commonly used filament materials, but they have different properties. PLA is biodegradable, easy to print, less likely to warp and produces less odor during printing. ABS is stronger, more impact resistant and more resistant to higher temperatures, but it requires good ventilation due to the odor released during printing.
What is the influence of filament color on the printing result?
The filament color does not affect the printability or mechanical properties of the final product, but it can affect the aesthetic appearance. Bright colors can make small imperfections and layers more visible, while dark colors may hide them. It is mainly a matter of personal preference and the desired appearance of the printed object.
How do I store 3D filament properly?
To maintain the quality of your filament, it is important to store it properly. Store the filament in a dry and cool place, preferably in an airtight container or a sealable container with a moisture-absorbing agent, such as silica gel. Exposure to moisture can adversely affect print results, so protection against moisture is essential.
