Filament BambuLab PLA Silk 1.75 mm 1 kg with reusable spool – Velvet Eclipse

BambuLab PLA Silk 1.75 mm 1 kg with reusable spool – Velvet Eclipse is a silk-finish PLA filament designed for desktop FDM/FFF 3D printers that accept 1.75 mm filament. The Velvet Eclipse color gives prints a glossy, satin-like appearance that enhances surface detail on decorative items, figurines and visual prototypes. The material is supplied on a reusable spool to reduce waste and allow convenient reloading.

Advantages

This PLA silk formulation delivers a smooth, low-texture finish with a subtle sheen that reduces the need for post-processing on visible surfaces. The filament is provided on a reusable spool which supports easier filament handling and storage. Designed for standard PLA print temperatures, it is suitable for typical desktop printer setups and produces consistent extrusion and good layer adhesion for non-structural parts.

Suitable for

• Decorative prints and statues where a satin/gloss finish is desired
• Display models and visual prototypes with visible surfaces
• Figurines, cosplay accessories and props
• Concept models and product mock-ups

Key specifications

• Material type: PLA (silk formulation)
• Nominal diameter: 1.75 mm
• Net filament weight: 1 kg
• Finish: glossy / satin-like surface
• Packaging: reusable spool
• Intended printing method: FDM/FFF desktop printers

How to use

Load the filament onto a compatible 1.75 mm feeder and follow your printer manufacturer's filament loading procedure. Select standard PLA print temperatures in your slicer (use the temperature range recommended for PLA if not specified by the printer), moderate print speeds, and enable cooling for improved surface quality. Use a heated bed or bed adhesive as required by your printer setup to minimise warping. Adjust retraction and print settings as needed to reduce stringing and achieve the desired surface finish.

Usage recommendations

Store the filament in a dry environment or sealed container when not in use to preserve print quality. For best surface results, print with cooling enabled and use layer heights and nozzle sizes that balance detail and sheen (for example, smaller layer heights improve detail but may reduce visible silk effect). The reusable spool can be refilled or used for storage of other 1.75 mm filaments.
