Product details

Wanhao Silky Fire PLA Filament consist of a Silky PLA in a spectrum of yellow to red colours.  It has more of a glossy effect to it than standard PLA and the colour range from yellow to red through out the spool. 

 

This effect is best seen when printing bigger items with repetative patterns, like vases.

Premium Wanhao PLA filament for open source 3D Printers.  High quality filament available in a wide variety of colours.  It offers the best of both worlds with great printing quality backed by more cost-efficient manufacturing processes.

 

These two features culminate into an excellent mid-range filament that everyone can enjoy and afford, without having to pay premium prices or concern themselves with sub-par printing quality. 

 

The filament comes on a plastic spool and is sealed in a plastic bag with desiccant and packaged in a box (sometimes we remove the filament from the box to fit everything into your parcel).  Each spool is marked with the type of filament and the manufacturing batch number.  We have a lot of confidence in the filament we supply, because we use it ourselves. 

PLA (Polylactic acid) is very common in the 3D Printers industry.  

 

This is mostly due to its low thermal expansion coefficient.  This means less warping and curling during printing.  PLA is not as tough as other plastics, but delivers prints with very high dimensional accuracy, ideal for prototyping and scale models.  It is available in a range of colours and is easy to print with.

Although many 3D Makers typically regard PLA Filaments as some of the most basic, being widely popular amongst 3D Makers of all different kinds, what many people don’t realise is that PLA is one of the most popular materials amongst hobbyist 3D Makers for good reason, and that’s because it is one of easiest to print, while simultaneously being one of the most inexpensive materials available to hobbyist 3D Makers.   This makes it quite the staple in Hobbyist 3D Printing, being a great choice for aesthetic and decorational prints, but also certainly good enough to be used for functional prints too – and that’s why we’ve fallen in love with SunLu PLA Filament, as this range has been polymerised according to the classic PLA specification, but with a core focus on affordability for all hobbyists in the 3D Printing scene.   Compared to most 3D Filament manufacturers that we hobbyists like to support, SunLu has placed a core focus on firstly providing awesome quality 3D Filaments that can actually meet the common standards of modern 3D Makers, while secondarily ensuring the lowest price possible so as to make their materials affordable and accessible for everyone.   These are some key ingredients that, in our experience, do wonders toward making a material a comfortable “Everyday Filament”, and when coupled with a fantastically wide range of colours to choose from, can easily make this filament a firm favourite amongst 3D Makers of all kinds. This is why, despite being “low cost”, we’re delighted with the print quality that we get from SunLu, and we think it should definitely have a good place in our growing catalogue as a tried, tested and reliable “Everyday Filaments” for 3D Makers who love to spend hours with their 3D Printers creating, Making and tinkering away.   Of course, as with any other filament brand, we encourage you to test out SunLu PLA Filament for yourself, and if you enjoy the colours, print quality and easy printing style of it, then take the next leap and test out other materials from the SunLu Filament Range. So far we’ve enjoyed each and every variant that we have in stock, and we’re quite certain that you’re going to fall in love with SunLu just like we did when first sinking our teeth into their range of materials and colours.   Note: The images show how the colours may vary and may not represent the exact colour you will receive. Although there are multiple rolls shown in the images, this product is not a pack. You will receive one roll of filament for your order. Please select a higher quantity to receive more.

TOUGH YET FLEXIBLE

 

FIL X SBS

 

Did you know that you are in daily contact with SBS products such as the soles of your shoes or the tyres of your car? But how can SBS be used in FDM 3D printing?

 

SBS (Styrene-butadiene-styrene) has the unique properties of being both tough and flexible at the same time, thanks to its Polystyrene origin lending it a hard, tough consistency and the Polybutadiene giving it a bit more bounce with its rubbery properties.

This powerhouse combination offers, apart from good layer adhesion, no odour during printing and does not absorb moisture. Furthermore, it has been FDA and EU directive approved for food contact.

 

Fil X SBS filament is very easy to print with on a glass bed with some hairspray for better bed adhesion and best of all can be smoothed with d-limonene (also available from Fil X!) leaving you with a stunning finished product.

THE PLANET’S FRIENDLIEST 3D FILAMENT   FIL X PLA   Fil X PLA is the flagship product of Fil X taking the 3D printing market by storm! Through thorough testing and hours of diligence, Fil X is proud to present its 100% biodegradable PLA.   PLA (Polylactic Acid) is the holy grail of polymers as it is made from organic components such as sugar cane or maize, therefore making it incredibly environmentally friendly. However, the product is quite tricky to manufacture, so many companies add process additives to the product mix making it easier to extrude, thereby ruining the biodegradability of the product.   Often, when printing with contaminated PLA, there will be an odour as a result of the polymer additives in the product. Pure PLA is practically odourless.   Fil X is proud to bring their PLA filament to the market. Without any additives such as masterbatch or stabilizers to compromise the compostable properties of PLA, Fil X has developed a pure and clean PLA filament that is absolutely environmentally friendly and a pleasure to print with.THE PLANET’S FRIENDLIEST 3D FILAMENT   FIL X PLA   Fil X PLA is the flagship product of Fil X taking the 3D printing market by storm!

PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable (under the correct conditions) thermoplastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. It is one of the most popular bioplastics, used for many applications ranging from plastic cups to medical implants. PLA in its raw form is also FDA and EU commission regulation approved as Food Contact Safe.
