ColorFabb LW-PLA-HT Black (Light Weight, High Temp) 750g 1.75mm

Colorfabbs new generation LW-PLA-HT. This formulation features an increased temperature resistance compared to the generic LW-PLA.

Thin printed structures will be able to handle heat from external sources such as the sun much better and prolong the time until failure. Not convinced? Check out the comparison video in the image gallery between regular LW-PLA and LW-PLA-HT.

The LW-PLA-HT is the best filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay and other light weight items. Parts are feather light, yet retain good strength and are easy to cut, trim and sand.

Pros:

• Better heat resistance compared to LW-PLA
• Print light weight parts due to active foaming process
• Darker colors are less prone to heat deformation
• Takes paint really well

Cons:

• Slightly higher density at maximum foaming, compared to LW-PLA
• You’ll have to adjust your LW-PLA gcodes to accommodate LW-PLA-HT
• Higher temperature resistance of the material can lead to more warping
