The R3D HT-PLA Red Filament is a high-temperature-resistant PLA filament with a diameter of 1.75 mm and a net weight of 1 kg. It features an increased Vicat softening temperature of 155.2 °C, making printed parts significantly more heat-resistant than standard PLA. The melting temperature is 165 °C, and the heat deflection temperature is 60.5 °C at 0.45 MPa. The material offers a tensile strength of 40 MPa and a flexural strength of 86 MPa, indicating good mechanical properties. The flexural modulus of 4106 MPa ensures high stiffness for printed parts. The elongation at break is 11.8 %, and the impact strength is 4.2 kJ/m². The filament is compatible with AMS systems and can be used with nozzle sizes from 0.2 to 0.8 mm. The manufacturing tolerance for the filament diameter is ±0.02 mm, ensuring uniform extrusion. All spools are sealed and packed with silica gel to prevent moisture absorption. For optimal storage, the manufacturer recommends a cool, dry environment at 15 to 25 °C without UV exposure.
