ROSA3D PLA Silk Gold 1.75mm 1kg Refill Filament

ROSA3D PLA Silk Gold 1.75mm refill filament is a premium 3D printing material engineered to provide a stunning, glossy metallic finish to your projects. This high-quality filament is designed for users who prioritize both aesthetic appeal and ease of use, ensuring that every print exhibits a smooth, silk-like surface with intense color depth. As a refill version, it is supplied without a plastic spool, making it an environmentally conscious and cost-effective choice for those who already possess a reusable spool system.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this filament is its exceptional visual quality, which produces a luminous, eye-catching effect on finished models. Beyond its appearance, the material is highly reliable, offering excellent layer adhesion and precise detail reproduction. It is characterized by low shrinkage during the printing process, which minimizes the risk of warping. Furthermore, the filament is odorless, ensuring a more comfortable printing environment, and it is compatible with a wide range of standard 3D printers, making it a versatile addition to any maker's inventory.

Suitable for

• Decorative items and ornaments
• Interior design elements and luminous sculptures
• Figurines and toys
• Custom gadgets such as key rings and pendants

This filament may not be suitable for functional parts that require high mechanical strength or high heat resistance, as it has a heat deformation temperature of 55°C. It is also not recommended for outdoor applications where the printed object will be exposed to direct sunlight or extreme weather conditions for extended periods.

To use this refill filament, ensure you have a compatible reusable spool or a spool-less holder system. Simply mount the filament coil onto your holder, feed the end into your printer's extruder, and set your slicer settings within the recommended temperature range. The material is designed to work well on both heated and unheated print beds, though a heated bed is generally preferred for optimal first-layer adhesion.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your 3D printer supports 1.75mm diameter filament.
• Verify that you have a reusable spool or a compatible mounting system for the refill coil.
• Consider the intended use, as this material is optimized for aesthetics rather than high-stress mechanical applications.
• Check if your printer bed requires an adhesive agent for better adhesion with PLA-based materials.

For the best results, we recommend printing at a speed of 60-80 mm/s with the cooling fan set between 50% and 100%. If you experience issues with the first layer sticking to the print bed, applying a thin layer of adhesive is highly recommended.
