Silk PLA Plus Filament 1kg - Steel Blue

SA Filament Silk PLA Plus Filament 1kg

Regular price R 349.99
Sale price R 349.99 Regular price

Overview

SA Filament Silk PLA Plus is an upgraded aesthetic PLA engineered to produce smooth reflective prints while maintaining easy printability. It offers the visual appeal of silk filaments combined with the reliability of standard PLA materials.

Traditional silk filaments often suffer from weak layer bonding and slow print speeds. This formulation is optimised to print at normal PLA temperatures and speeds while maintaining consistent strength and clean surface quality.

The material is ideal for makers, businesses and designers who want visually impressive results without complicated setup or tuning.

Key Features

  • High gloss reflective finish
  • Improved durability vs standard PLA
  • Standard PLA temperature compatibility
  • Reliable layer bonding
  • Low shrinkage and warping
  • Consistent extrusion flow
  • Vacuum sealed packaging

Think twice for

Hot cars, high-heat enclosures and impact-heavy parts

Important: Heat figures are typical material-class guidance, not a guaranteed safe operating limit. Geometry, load, print orientation, colour, moisture, annealing and post-cure can change performance. For hot, structural or safety-critical parts, use the exact manufacturer TDS/HDT value.
