Prusament PLA Galaxy Purple 1kg

Popular among both beginners and advanced users

PLA is the easiest-to-print filament we make. It’s reliable and it doesn’t require any print preparations or difficult post-processing methods. If you’re new to 3D printing, it’s best to start with PLA before using other materials.

Sanding

When post-processing PLA, it’s better to use wet sanding. Without water you’ll quickly start heating the plastic by friction, it will melt locally and deform. Also, without water, the sanding material would clog easily.

Gluing

PLA can be glued with many types of glue. We recommend using superglue for most of the parts. Certain PLA filaments may be also glued using acetone, however, it strongly depends on the various additives and colors used.

1.75 mm filament is manufactured with precision of ± 0.02 mm (±0.03 for blends)

Before printing, make sure the surface of the heatbed is clean as described in the 3D Printing Handbook.
