3D printer filaments
What are 3D Printer Filaments?
3D printer filaments are thermoplastic materials used as "ink" in 3D printing. These filaments are melted and extruded through a heated nozzle to create three-dimensional objects layer by layer. In our shop, we offer a variety of filaments to meet all your printing needs.
Types of Filaments for 3D Printers
Explore our selection of filaments and find the perfect type for your 3D printer:
PLA filament
Description:Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the most popular filaments due to its ease of use.
Characteristics: Biodegradable, low melting temperature, low shrinkage.
Uses: Prototypes, toys, decorative figures.
Availability:See PLA Filaments
PETG filament
Description:Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) combines the best properties of PLA and ABS.
Characteristics: Chemical resistance, good durability, easy to print.
Uses: Food containers, mechanical components, impact resistant products.
Availability:See PETG Filaments
TPU filament
DescriptionThermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is a flexible and elastic filament.
Characteristics: Flexibility, high wear resistance, good elasticity.
Uses: Flexible prototypes, protective housings, elastic components.
Availability:See TPU Filaments
Industrial Filaments
Description:High-performance filaments designed to work in specific applications where special properties are required.
Characteristics:These filaments have different characteristics depending on the application for which they are intended.
Uses:spare parts for industry, final product.
Availability:See Industrial Filaments
How to Choose the Right Filament
Selecting the right filament depends on several factors, including the type of project, the required material characteristics, and the 3D printer being used. Here are some tips:
Project and Final Use: Determine the purpose of the printed object. For decorative objects, PLA is a good choice. For functional parts, consider ABS or PETG.
Mechanical Properties: If you need impact resistance or flexibility, choose filaments like PETG or TPU.
Printer Compatibility: Check your 3D printer's specifications to make sure it can handle the filament you want to use.
