Proto-pasta Proto-Pasta HTP31710-BLK Opaque Black HTPLA, 1.75mm 1kg

Not your everyday PLA, HTPLA v3 offers the ease of PLA printing with such exceptional quality, compatibility, reliability, durability, performance, and finish that you’ll want to use it every day! Proto-pasta’s Premium HTPLA v3 is our own exclusive, unique formulation based on in-house testing and our industry-leading experience working with heat treatable PLA. HTPLA v3 prints like standard PLA, but can be heat treated for much higher temperature stability than standard PLA. HTPLA v3 offers exceptional performance and finish for your functional prototypes and final part production. Leading Performance – We created and tested many blends (including those from large, respected material manufactures) before selecting this formula for more durability without sacrificing HTPLA’s exceptional stiffness, strength, and layer adhesion. Exceptional Quality – We implement dynamic diameter feedback, introduce no moisture during extrusion, and improved durability for HTPLA v3. Made by Makers – Best of all, Proto-pasta is made by engineering professionals at Protoplast who are passionate about making things and improving our world – just like you! When you purchase Proto-pasta, you can feel good about supporting small business, future innovation, the environment, and hard working folks that love 3D Printing, technology, and tinkering as much as you do! HTPLA, like PLA, can print at 200C or less, though exceptional mechanical results were achieved printing up to 250C or more for nearly twice the layer strength compared to 230C in our tests. Adjust layer fan and build rate for surface quality. Though a heated bed is not required, larger, more solid parts can benefit from bed temps up to 70C. Standard build surface preparation like blue tape or glue stick work best along with slow (10-20 mm/s) and hot (220C+) 1st layer with enough gap not to restrict material extrusion.
