Easy Printing Experience:

  • Print with a 0.8mm hardened steel, standard flow nozzle (1.0mm nozzles are ideal)

  • Prints similar to PLA

  • Minimal to no warping

  • Ensure the filament feeds straight into the extruder

  • Less hygroscopic than PLA

    • Do not dry this filament—drying will degrade the binder
