Printing Proto-Pasta PLA
Proto-Pasta PLA in Black 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.
