MakerBot Tough-PLA filament 1,75 mm 1 kg sivá

MakerBot Tough-PLA Filament combines the ease of printing of standard PLA with enhanced impact strength and durability, making it ideal for functional prototyping and end-use parts. This 1 kg spool of grey filament (1.75 mm diameter) is engineered for reliable performance on MakerBot Replicator+ and Method Series printers (with Labs Extruder).

Advantages

Compared to standard PLA, Tough-PLA offers higher impact resistance, greater flexibility, and improved durability. It prints with low odor and minimal shrinkage, and is biodegradable under industrial composting conditions. The material is perfect for creating manufacturing tools, jigs, fixtures, and functional prototypes that require toughness without the complexity of ABS.

Suitable for

• Functional prototypes and concept models
• Manufacturing aids: jigs, fixtures, and tooling
• End-use parts requiring impact strength
• Educational and professional 3D printing applications
