1.75mm HIgh Temp PLA Filament - GREY - 1 kg

High Temperature premium PLA is high heat and high strength. Tough PLA without annealing and suitable for functional parts.

To achieve the crystalline state , HTPLA 3d printed part needs to be heat treated in an oven (heat treatment must be done after 3D printing process) 

1- Place the 3d printed part with HTPLA in Conductive oven on a piece of wood or aluminum foil

2- Heat the oven 90°C to 110°C  (temperature stable oven)

3- Keep the part 30 to 60 min, depending on the part volume and wall thickness. 

The following test conducted on 3d printed samples  The one on the right was heat treated following the above steps and the sample on the left was not heat treated . 

Deflection of the non heat treated part started  in 5 minutes , Oven was heated to 120°C , and samples placed as shown the deflection of non-heat treated part start in 5 min while the heat treated part maintain its shape even after 30 min under 120C

Print settings

• Printing Temperature : 205°C - 235°C
• Heated Bed: 60-65°C  Bed Temperature
• Filament Diameter: 1.75±0.03mm
• First layer usually 5°C-10°C higher than subsequent layers.
• Sticks well to Glass with PVA Glue ,BuildTak, PEI, or blue tape.
• Cooling Fan: Highly recommended.
• Empty Spool Weight : 140 Grams 
• Gross Weight :1140-1170 Grams 
• Net Weight : 1KG 

NOTE :

Great results can be achieved with printing speed 20-40mm/s for infill specially with Bowden setup 3d printers using 0.4 mm nozzle size. 

For All metal hot-end , try to print with high flow rate and/or higher temperature , with 3d printers with Teflon-lined hot-ends you can can print at regular flow rate and lower temperature.
