3D printing filament eSun EPLA-SILK MAGIC 1.75 mm, Red Gold, 1 kg

eSun EPLA-SILK MAGIC 1.75 mm in Red Gold is a PLA-based filament developed for desktop FDM 3D printers that accept 1.75 mm filament. Supplied on a 1 kg spool, this filament combines the ease of printing typical for PLA with a visible silk-like sheen that enhances surface appearance of decorative prints, prototypes and small parts. The material offers good dimensional stability and predictable feeding behavior for common consumer and prosumer machines.

Advantages

The formulation provides smooth extrusion and reduced stringing when used with appropriate temperature and retraction settings, resulting in a glossy, silk-like finish on outer surfaces. Its PLA base ensures low warping and compatibility with standard heated or unheated print beds with suitable adhesion aids. The Red Gold color delivers consistent coloration across layers, improving visual quality for decorative models and display pieces.

Suitable for

• Decorative models and figurines with a silk-like surface
• Concept models and aesthetic prototypes
• Small functional parts where appearance is important
• Display items, signage and hobby projects

Key specifications

• Diameter: 1.75 mm nominal for desktop FDM printers
• Net weight: 1 kg spool
• Base material: PLA-based formulation
• Finish: visible silk-like sheen with metallic Red Gold hue
• Dimensional stability: low warping and good layer adhesion

How to use

Load the 1.75 mm filament onto a compatible extruder and set the nozzle temperature according to your printer and nozzle size, typically within the manufacturer-recommended PLA temperature range. Use recommended print speeds and enable retraction settings to reduce stringing. For better first-layer adhesion, print on a clean bed surface or apply a suitable adhesion helper such as blue painter's tape, glue stick or PEI sheet. After printing, allow parts to cool before removing them from the bed to minimise distortion.

Usage recommendations

Start with standard PLA print settings and adjust nozzle temperature, print speed and retraction to optimise surface sheen and minimise artifacts. Use cooling fans for sharper overhangs and bridging. Store the filament in a dry environment or sealed container with desiccant to preserve print quality.
