Polymaker HT-PLA-GF Power Tool Teal Filament 1.75mm 1Kg

Polymaker HT-PLA-GF is a glass fiber reinforced high-temperature filament that combines the easy printability of PLA with the high stability of technical compounds. Thanks to the glass fiber content, it offers exceptional rigidity, low shrinkage, and high dimensional stability. Components remain dimensionally stable up to 130°C after annealing and are thus suitable for applications subjected to high mechanical and thermal stress. Despite the reinforcement, the material can be reliably printed and achieves printing speeds of up to 350 mm/s. Particularly interesting is the good paintability as accustomed to with PLA: Surfaces can be easily primed, painted, or colored, making the filament ideal for model making, cosplay, tabletop, or custom vehicle parts. HT-PLA-GF thus opens up possibilities that would otherwise only be achievable with technical materials like ABS or ASA - but without their disadvantages such as limited color options, complex processing, or higher printing requirements. Due to the glass fiber reinforcement, the material is abrasive to nozzles, therefore the use of a hardened nozzle is explicitly recommended. During processing, there is a low odor development, stronger than PLA, but much more pleasant than ASA or ABS.

Properties:

• HT-PLA-GF offers high temperature resistance and remains dimensionally stable up to 130°C after annealing.
• Glass fiber reinforcement provides exceptional rigidity and stability.
• Very low shrinkage for dimensional and precise components.
• High layer adhesion and reliable printability.
• Low odor development, more pleasant than ASA or ABS.
• Paintability as accustomed to with PLA, ideal for model making, tabletop, and cosplay.
• High printing speed of up to 350 mm/s possible.
• Abrasive due to glass fiber - hardened nozzle recommended.

Recommended Printing Parameters:

• Printing temperature: 210–230 °C, recommended 230 °C
• Heated bed: 25–60 °C, recommended 50 °C
• Fan: 100 %
• Printing speed: up to 350 mm/s

Annealing: Place the finished part on a flat, heat-resistant surface and temper at 100 °C in the oven for about 30 minutes. Then let it cool slowly in the oven to prevent warping.
