Product description: Filament Polymaker PolyLite LW-PLA 1.75 mm 0.80 kg - Gray
PolyLite LW-PLA filament in gray from Polymaker is designed for printing in FFF / FDM technology. LW-PLA is a material that is characterized by low density , thanks to which very light 3D models can be printed. Stabilized Foaming technology was used to produce the filament. This technology allows PLA to be re-foamed after extrusion and introduces a lattice foam structure that reduces density by 30%. The material is also characterized by a matte surface finish, so the layers are less visible. PolyLite LW-PLA is recommended to be printed on a surface with a thin layer of PVP glue. In order to obtain a smoother surface of the prints, it is possible to wet sand the finished models. The filament with a diameter of 1.75 mm and a weight of 0.8 kg was wound on a spool.
LW-PLA filament from Polymaker for printing very lightweight 3D models.
Special features of the filament
- Low fiber density - 3D printed models are very light, they can be used to create e.g. airplane models, thanks to the Stabilized Foaming technology
- Matte surface - matte surface finish, hides layer lines
- Easy to process - finished models can be sanded, transformed after immersion in hot water (70°C)
- Biodegradable - made from organic materials
- Durable - the technology used gives the fibers very good mechanical properties
