Product Details
- ColorFabb LW-PLA HT is the next generation of lightweight filament, offering higher heat resistance and strength compared to standard LW-PLA. It’s perfect for RC aircraft, drones, or parts where reduced weight matters. With a foaming expansion of up to 200%, you can print larger, lighter models without sacrificing durability. For best results, fine-tune flow between 45–70% and use moderate cooling to optimize surface finish.
- Experience stable, low-warping performance and reliable adhesion with LW-PLA HT. Its smooth extrusion ensures consistent layers, making it ideal for hobbyists and professionals alike. You can sand, prime, and paint parts easily to achieve a professional finish. Pro tip: Adjust layer height and speed for your desired balance between detail and lightweight output — perfect for strong yet feather-light designs.
- Material: LW-PLA HT Diameter tolerance: ±0.05 mm Glass transition temp: ~80 °C Recommended nozzle temp: 250–270 °C Bed temp: 50–60 °C Print speed: 30–50 mm/s Density reduction: up to 60% depending on settings. Tips: Use a hardened nozzle for long prints and enable retraction tuning to avoid stringing. Ideal for functional prototypes, model aircraft, and lightweight mechanical parts.

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