About PLA

The default beginner filament: prints cool, almost no warping, no enclosure needed. Plant-derived. Great detail and easy bed adhesion; the trade-off is low heat resistance (parts soften around 50–60 °C) and brittleness under sustained load — keep finished PLA parts out of hot cars and direct sun.

Good for
  • Prototypes and visual models
  • Toys, figurines, miniatures
  • Indoor display pieces
  • Anything where heat resistance does not matter
Avoid for
  • Car interiors / outdoor sun exposure
  • Functional parts under sustained load or heat
  • Enclosures around hot electronics
