Best 3D Printing Filaments

Consumer 3D printers may now use filaments other than ABS and PLA. Numerous engineering polymers have flooded the market as a result of the success of additive manufacturing technologies. Despite the continued popularity of ABS and PLA, many 3D printing lovers have shifted to newer materials.

So, here is all the information you need about various 3D printing filaments and their properties.

Polylactic acid

The most popular and user-friendly filament for 3D printing is polylactic acid or PLA. It is non-toxic and, unlike most plastic, is derived from corn starches; yet, it requires an industrial composter to be composted. The plastic in PLA is melted for extrusion at a relatively low temperature between 190 and 215 degrees Celsius, making it the safest filament available. PLA can be printed on almost all FDM 3D printers.

The glow Glow-in-the-dark Green PLA Filament is a really nice filament for creating attractive objects that can glow. This PLA only costs $27.99 per Kg.

PETG Filament

Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) is quite similar to the plastic found in water bottles and food containers, except for the addition of glycol to improve printability. Filament PETG has better features in the most important parameters. It's slightly tougher, significantly more heat resistant, exhibits excellent creep resistance, and is, therefore, suitable for functional 3D printing.

You can get the best PETG filament from our online store at $24.99 per KG. You can choose either the red or blue PETG filament.

Our PETGfilament has a High dimensional accuracy of 1.75 mm (±0.03 mm) diameter, low warping making it easy to print, and it is heat-resisting and durable, making it highly rigid and flexible.

Thermoplastic polyurethane

TPU is a flexible material that can make cool rubbery models. TPU is commonly used to 3D print phone cases, but it can also be used to create connectors or flexible hinges for other materials.

You can get the TPU filament from our website at $34.99 per Kg.
