Protopasta 3D Printer Filament | PLA Filament 1.75mm

Description: Introducing Magnetic Iron Filled PLA. The strength of Protopasta Magnetic Iron PLA is similar, and likely somewhat less, than the strength of standard PLA. The iron in the filament is too finely ground to provide an increase in overall strength. The iron is too small and separated by the PLA to offer any noticeable amount of conductivity. We call our material “Magnetic Iron PLA” to communicate that this material allows users to include the added benefits of magnetism when designing and printing 3D objects. Material Data Base resin: HTPLA - Heat Treatable PLA Particle size: less than 250 microns (0.25mm) Odor: low or no Density: 1.8 g/cm3 (1800 kg/m3) Length (500g): 97m (1.75mm) and 36m (2.85mm) Heat treating: 110C (225F) for 10 min or as required for the desired result Total loss of stiffness (before heat treat): 50-60C (Tg) Total loss of stiffness (after heat treat): 150-175C (melting) Dimension change (before heat treat): 0% X/Y/Z Dimension change (after heat treat): 1.5% shrink X/Y and 1% growth Z typical but please calculate and confirm for your specific print and process Printer Settings Speed: 10-20 mm/s 1st layer, 20-80 mm/s rest of part Nozzle Set-point: 185-215C (hottest on 1st layer for best adhesion) Nozzle Actual: maintain set-point, reduce speed if less than Nozzle Type: Standard or wear-resistant for extended use Nozzle Diameter: 0.6mm or larger preferred, 0.4mm okay with 0.25mm minimum for experts Layer thickness: 0.15-0.20mm recommended for a balance of quality, reliability, and productivity Bed Temp (if available, is not required): 50° C Bed Preparation: Elmers purple disappearing glue stick or your other favorite PLA surface preparation Metal Infused Filament: Protopasta Metal Filled PLA 3D Printer Filament is comprised of a base PLA plastic mixed with 45% by weight iron powder. This 500g spool of 1.75mm metallic composite filament has twice the density of standard PLA filament, making it perfect for prints requiring a metal look and feel. This iron PLA filament is also ferromagnetic, allowing magnets to stick to it. Multi-Purpose Metal Filament: Proto pasta printing filament is ideal for many different printing projects due to it's unique ability to have a patina for a truly metallic-looking finish. This lends a more realistic feel when printing models such as cars, tools, tabletop game miniatures, and other metallic accessories. Consumer Printer Compatibility: Our metal-infused PLA filament is compatible with most consumer printers such as Prusa, Bambu, Creality, and Ender. The high-quality ferromagnetic iron PLA filament prints smoothly without causing clogs or bubbles so that your prints turn out how you expect them to. Materials Made in USA: ProtoPlant Proto pasta products are well known in the 3D printing market and we were one of the first to experiment with recyclable spools, composites, colors, and unique finishes. Our Protopasta filament and spools are made in the USA, providing you with the high-quality products you've come to expect. ProtoPlant Passion: Making Protopasta. Making new. Making better. Since 2013, Protopasta has valued quality, reliability, and creativity. We seek to reduce waste in our production and build relationships in our community. Our metal composite filament line is a demonstration of our passion for high-quality 3D printing and even higher-quality service.
