LW-PLA-HT WHITE 1.75mm 750g Roll

Meet our new generation LW-PLA-HT WHITE. This formulation features an increased temperature resistance compared to our generic LW-PLA.

Thin printed structures will be able to handle heat from external sources such as the sun much better and prolong the time until failure. Not convinced? Check out our comparison video in the image gallery between regular LW-PLA and LW-PLA-HT.

Our LW-PLA-HT is the best filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay and other light weight items. Parts are feather light, yet retain good strength and are easy to cut, trim and sand.

Read our tutorial: Upgrading from LW-PLA to LW-PLA-HT, what you need to know. 

Pros

 better heat resistance compared to LW-PLA

 print light weight parts due to active foaming process

 darker colors are less prone to heat deformation

 takes paint really well

Cons
 slightly higher density at maximum foaming, compared to LW-PLA

 you’ll have to adjust your LW-PLA gcodes to accommodate LW-PLA-HT

 higher temperature resistance of the material can lead to more warping

Printing Settings:

For printing thin structures such as RC plane parts we recommend printing the first layer at 100% flow using 200C printing temperature. Then increase the temperature for the second layer (around 235C) to activate the foaming and reduce flow to 50-60%.
