1.75 mm (1/16″) TOUGH PLA FILAMENT – BLUE – 750 g

Description

Looking for a revolutionary PLA filament that has all the best qualities of ABS, and none of the disadvantages? It may sound too good to be true, but we’ve got the answer!

As the name suggests, Tough PLA has the same high impact resistance as ABS. This makes it ideal to print sturdy prototypes or other technical models at any size. Plus, the print quality will stay at the same high level as you are used too with Velleman filaments.

As for the 3D printing, you will experience far less warping and shrinking than you do when using ABS. Also, Tough PLA can be used with multiple 3D printers, and at various print temperatures! Check out all features and specs below to know the gist.

Features

• Eco-friendly: PLA is made from renewable and biodegradable resources.
• Minimal odor: Melted PLA does not emit an unpleasant odor during the printing process.
• Impact-resistant: PLA does not easily deform and is straightforward to work with.
• Energy-efficient: Due to PLA’s lower melting point, less energy is consumed during the printing process.
• Easy to print: Because of PLA’s properties, it is generally easier to print with, especially for beginners.
