PLA UltraFuse

Ultrafuse PLA is polylactic acid, a biodegradable polymer with a low melting point. It is an easy-to-print material and Ultrafuse PLA provides consistent print results. This most popular 3D printing material is available in a wide range of RAL colors and translucent variants.

When properly cooled, PLA has a faster maximum print speed, lower layer heights, and sharper printed corners. The combination of this with low print warpage makes it a popular plastic for makers, prosumers, and schools.
