Flexible PLA 3D Printing Filament - 1kg x 1.75mm

Flexible PLA 3D Printing Filament:

3D META’s Flexible PLA 3D printing filament is designed to bring versatility and ease to your 3D printing projects with its unique combination of flexibility and high-quality performance. Crafted from a specially formulated PLA blend, our Flexible PLA filament maintains the advantages of standard PLA while offering the added benefit of flexibility, making it ideal for applications that require pliable and resilient parts. With exceptional bed and layer adhesion, our filament minimizes issues such as warping and cracking, ensuring reliable and consistent results.

Key Features of Flexible PLA 3D Printing Filament:

• Manufactured with Premium Materials: Our Flexible PLA filament is produced from high-quality PLA materials, ensuring durability and performance. The formulation includes flexible polymers that enhance the filament’s ability to bend and stretch without compromising print quality.

• Enhanced Flexibility: Unlike standard PLA, our Flexible PLA offers superior elasticity, allowing you to print parts that can withstand bending, twisting, and compression without breaking. This makes it perfect for creating items like phone cases, wearable accessories, and flexible joints.

• Exceptional Bed and Layer Adhesion: Experience reliable adhesion with every print. Our filament’s excellent bed and layer bonding reduces the risk of warping and delamination, resulting in smooth and accurate prints.

• No Warping or Cracking: Enjoy hassle-free printing with a filament that is designed to resist warping and cracking. Flexible PLA maintains dimensional stability, even when dealing with complex geometries or larger prints.

• Easy to Print With: Designed for convenience, our Flexible PLA filament feeds smoothly through your 3D printer and adheres well to the print bed, making it a user-friendly option for both beginners and experienced users.

Applications for Flexible PLA Filament:

Flexible PLA filament is highly versatile and suitable for a range of applications where flexibility is key. Whether you’re a hobbyist or a professional, our filament provides the quality and durability you need for various projects:

• Wearable Accessories: Create comfortable and flexible wearables like bracelets, watch bands, or custom-fit mouthguards with ease.

• Functional Parts: Ideal for parts that need to bend or stretch, such as gaskets, seals, and custom connectors, ensuring functional performance without sacrificing flexibility.

• Cosplay Props: Achieve realistic and flexible cosplay props that require movement and deformation without breaking, making your costumes more durable and functional.

• Decorative Items: Add a unique touch to your decorative pieces with the ability to create flexible and intricate designs that stand out.

Storage and Maintenance for Flexible PLA Filament:

Proper storage of your Flexible PLA filament is crucial to maintaining its quality and performance. Flexible PLA filament is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air, which can negatively affect print quality. To keep your Flexible PLA filament in optimal condition:

• Store in a Cool, Dark, and Dry Place: Keep your filament in an airtight container or resealable bag with desiccants to prevent moisture absorption.
• Drying Methods: If your filament has absorbed moisture, you can dry it using a dedicated filament dryer, a food dehydrator, a kitchen oven, or even your 3D printer if it’s fully enclosed. For PLA and PLA+ filaments, we recommend drying at a temperature of 40℃ - 45℃ for a minimum of 4 – 6 hours.

FAQ's

Q: Can I Use Flexible PLA with Any 3D Printer?

A: Most modern 3D printers can handle Flexible PLA, but the filament works best with printers equipped with a direct drive extruder. If your printer has a Bowden tube, ensure it is well-maintained and the filament path is as smooth as possible to prevent issues with feeding.

 

Q: Can flexible filaments like Flexible PLA or TPU be used in Bambu Labs AMS? 

A: Bambu Labs don't recommend using flexible filament in their AMS, to print flexible filament on you Bambu Labs printer you will need to use the separate spool holder.

 

Q: What shore hardness is 3D META's Flexible PLA? 

A: Our Flexible PLA has a shore hardness of 85A.
