colorFabb LW-PLA Black Filament | 1.75MM, 0.75KG Spool

$69.95

colorFabb Lightweight PLA (LW-PLA) is the best filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay and other lightweight items. Parts are feather light, yet retain good strength and are easy to cut, trim and sand. If part weight matters to you, then this will quickly become your filament of choice.

Key Features

  • Reduce the weight of printed parts up to 65% compared to regular PLA.
  • Control extruded volume of material by regulating printing temperature. At around 230C LW-PLA starts foaming and can increase its volume by nearly 3 times.
  • With one spool LW-PLA you can print as much as with 3 regular spools of PLA, due to the 3x lower material multiplier / flow.
  • Easy to cut, trim, sand and takes paint really well.
  • LW-PLA  (Natural,Black,Gray Silver & Red) hides layer lines really well.

Please note that colour variations may occur with colorFabb LW-PLA. Colour will turn lighter when material is at maximum foamed state as opposed to non-foamed state which shows a deeper and richer colour. Material oozes on travel moves, this is normal and can’t be reduced completely.

colorFabb Lightweight PLA (LW-PLA) is the best filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay and other lightweight items. Parts are feather light, yet retain good strength and are easy to cut, trim and sand. If part weight matters to you, then this will quickly become your filament of choice.
colorFabb LW-PLA is the first high quality expanding PLA 3D printing filament of its kind, using an active foaming technology to achieve light weight, low density PLA parts.
At around 230°C this material will start foaming, increasing its volume by nearly 3 times. Users can decrease material flow by 65% to achieve light weight parts, or use the expanding properties to effectively reduce print time by using big layer heights or single extra thick perimeters.
