ELEGOO PLA+ Filament (Blue)

ELEGOO PLA+ Filament (blue)

ELEGOO filament in blue is a good choice if you want a light, clean shade that looks good on larger surfaces and in details. The material has a uniform color and smooth texture, so prints look aesthetically pleasing and are well reproduced. It is based on PLA+ (polylactide plus - a biodegradable material of plant origin, enriched with additives to increase durability). The spool contains 1 kg of filament.

Durability and precision

With increased resistance to breakage and better layer consistency, PLA+ is more durable than standard PLA, yet just as easy to print. A consistent diameter of 1.75 mm and dimensional precision of ± 0.02 mm guarantee smooth material feeding and less risk of blockages. Smooth surface and good heat conduction make even more complex models come out cleanly and without deformation.

Convenience and compatibility

The material is wound evenly and checked by hand, reducing the risk of tangles. The whole thing is vacuum-packed with a moisture absorber, so once opened you can start printing right away. The product fits most FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling - a 3D printing technology in which material is melted and applied in layers) printers that support 1.75mm filament.
