Product Details
- Experience a breakthrough in lightweight 3D printing with ColorFabb LW-PLA. This filament expands during extrusion, reducing weight by up to 65% without sacrificing strength. Perfect for RC planes, drones, cosplay props, and any project that benefits from reduced mass. Print effortlessly with stable layer adhesion and low stringing. For best results, start at 230–250°C and adjust flow to achieve the desired foaming effect. Lower flow equals lighter parts. With LW-PLA, you print stronger, lighter, and smarter — optimizing your designs for true performance.
- Take full control over your print density using ColorFabb LW-PLA’s unique foaming behavior. By tuning temperature and flow, you can create lightweight or solid parts from the same spool. This makes it ideal for functional prototypes, model aircraft, and engineering applications. Enjoy reduced filament usage and shorter print times while maintaining precise details. For the best surface finish, enable retraction and reduce travel moves. LW-PLA empowers every maker to achieve professional, high-efficiency prints with precision and reliability.
- Material: LW-PLA (Lightweight PLA) Diameter tolerance: ±0.05 mm Glass transition temp: 60°C Recommended nozzle temp: 230–250°C Bed temp: 50–60°C Print speed: 35–55 mm/s Density reduction: Up to 65% For best results, dry filament before printing and store in a sealed container. Adjust flow rate between 60–100% to fine-tune weight and surface finish. LW-PLA delivers reliable extrusion, smooth layers, and stunning lightweight results for any creative or functional project.

Printing ColorFabb PLA
ColorFabb PLA in Matte Black runs on the PLA profile below, and this listing is a 0.75kg spool. PLA is best suited to light parts such as RC aircraft, cosplay props and large display pieces. Brands and even individual spools vary, so treat these as starting points and run a quick temperature tower to lock in the sweet spot for your printer.
Ranges checked against colorFabb, Polymaker and Bambu Lab data. Heat resistance is the heat deflection temperature (HDT). Read our LW-PLA filament guide for bed adhesion, drying, troubleshooting, and material-specific tips.
Nozzle Compatibility
This is an unfilled plastic, so it is not abrasive: a brass nozzle works and lasts, and so does hardened steel. With hardened steel, print about 5 to 10°C hotter.
