Description
Ambrosia Filament's line of PLA is part of our Low Calorie line of filament, no additives just butter smooth printing.
Feed your Printer the Filament of the Gods.
Derived from 100% Virgin Grade-A Non-Toxic pellets. Manufactured to a tighter than standard tolerance (+/- 0.03mm) you'll experience consistent extrusion throughout the spool.
PLA is most hobbyist makers material of choice for 3D printing. A bio-degradable plastic derived from renewable resources (such as corn... I know we say our filament is low calorie, but don't eat it - your printer is the only machine that should injest our filament!) it is one of the easiest materials to print with, with a relatively low melting point and is able to be printed without a heated bed. Printing with PLA is typically odorless, or when it smells gives of a 'sweet' aroma, and emits less harmful fumes than some other 3D printing materials, making it a safer option for enclosed spaces without proper ventilation.
- Arrives to you in a cardboard box, with filament wound in a cardboard spool, vacuum sealed with a desiccant bag.
- Derived from 100% Virgin (Grade-A) non-toxic pellets
- Diameter: 1.75mm (+/-0.03mm)
- Filament Net Weight: 1KG
- Spool Weight:
The glue holding the filament spool together is rated for an environment of 70C (158F). If using a filament dryer or require the filament spool by placed in an environment exceeding this temperature, we recommend printing a spool clip (here).

Filament can absorb moisture easily. To prevent moisture absorption and contamination, the packing of filament should be kept sealed and in an airtight container with desiccant.
