3D printing material Gembird 3DP-PLA-FL-01-W Polylactic acid PLA White 1 kg

Gembird 3DP-PLA-FL-01-W is a white Polylactic acid (PLA) filament designed for general-purpose FDM/FFF 3D printing. Supplied as a 1 kg spool with a 1.75 mm filament diameter and a material density of 1237 kg/m³, this PLA filament is formulated to provide consistent extrusion, reliable layer adhesion and smooth surface finish compatible with a wide range of printers and printing profiles.

Advantages

This PLA filament offers dimensional stability and predictable feeding due to its standardized 1.75 mm diameter. The white color provides a neutral base suitable for painting or post-processing, while the material's biodegradability and low warping characteristics make it suitable for detailed models and prototypes. The spool weight and consistent material density help maintain steady print runs and reduce the need for frequent spool changes.

How to use

Load the 1.75 mm PLA filament into your 3D printer according to the printer manufacturer's procedure. Typical print settings for PLA include a nozzle temperature in the 190–220°C range and a heated bed temperature of 0–60°C depending on adhesion method; fine-tune retraction, print speed and cooling in your slicer to match your printer and model geometry. Store the filament in a dry environment or sealed container with desiccant when not in use to minimise moisture absorption and preserve print quality.

Recommendations

For best results, start with manufacturer-recommended temperatures for PLA on your specific printer, print a calibration test (such as calibration cubes and temperature towers) to identify optimal settings, and allow sufficient part cooling when printing small or detailed features. Use a clean, level print surface and consider adhesives or a heated bed set to a low temperature to improve first-layer adhesion for larger parts.
