Product Details

• Versatile - Galactic Empire Metallic Purple HTPLA has presence and prestige! Purple is the color of royalty after all. So park your star destroyer and roll out the red carpet because this rich, dark purple is complimented with some big, silver fleck for just the right metallic pop. This premium filament is designed to print like plastic but finish like real metal. The flexibility of this 1.75 PLA filament gives you versatility and durability for beautiful parts from most standard 3D printers.
• Finishing Variety - The embedded carbon provides a beautiful matte black finish with a slight sheen, resulting in 3D prints with exceptional accuracy, finish, and performance! The carbon fibers give the surface a nice sheen and with layer heights under 0.1mm the layers blend into the texture and almost disappear. Printed parts using Carbon Fiber HTPLA can be shaved/carved with a sharp blade for a smooth finish.

• Easier to Use - This PLA Filament 1.75 mm has been flow-optimized and has less moisture than standard PLAs to help avoid heat soak and to keep mass flow up. This combination of features makes it easier to use than most standard PLAs.
• Widely Compatible - Designed to work with most standard 3D printers this 3D filament PLA 1.75 has a wide range of compatibility that allows you to run a business or simply create premium pieces in the comfort of your own home.

Printing Proto-Pasta PLA

Proto-Pasta PLA in Purple runs on the PLA profile below, and this listing is a 0.5kg spool. PLA is best suited to PLA parts that must survive heat after an annealing step. 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 Polymaker data. Heat resistance is the heat deflection temperature (HDT). Read our HT-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.

Based on Bambu Lab and Prusa guidance. More in our nozzle types guide.
