About 3D Printer Filament
What is 3D printing filament?
3D printing filament is a thermoplastic, or polymer, that melts when heated and is extruded through a nozzle layer by layer to create a three-dimensional object. After the filament is extruded, it cools and becomes the surface the next layer is deposited on top of.
3D printing filament is sold in spools ranging in weight from 0.5 kg to 10 kg. It comes in two diameters; 1.75mm and 2.85mm.
The most commonly used filaments are PLA and ABS. Both have advantages for different applications.
What types of filament are there?
Below is a chart showing the more common types of filament, along with their transition temperatures, bed temperatures, and ideal printing surfaces.

What are the properties of metal filament?316L and 17-4 PH Metal filament has multiple advantages in 3D printing and digital fabrication:
- Cost-effective when compared to small batch metal injection molding.
- Extremely safe and easy to print
- Simple processing to get metal parts
- Excellent chemical and thermal stability after printing
- Print with 17-4 PH for magnetic reactivity
- High corrosion resistance and toughness
Metal filament requires similar temperatures to PLA for printing. It is also highly recommended that a heated bed and proper adhesive be used.
- Use a Glass Bed with Dimafix for proper adhesion.
- 225°C +/- 10°C is the optimal printing temperature for most machines. Never exceed 250°C.
- A heated build plate at 110°C +/- 10°C is nominal for improved adhesion.
- Use an abrasion resistant nozzle that's clean of any other material.
- Layer cooling can cause warping during printing, so do not use any part cooling fans.
- A print speed of 15 to 40 mm/s will ensure the highest quality prints.
- Set you Infill to 100%. Voids in your infill could lead to failure during processing.
- We recommend either Lines or Concentric pattern depending on your geometry. These will give you the most uniform and solid infill.
Metal filament can be used to make anything machined from aluminum blanks or injection molded.

ABS plastic for 3D printing in Irkutsk from various manufacturers
ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is one of the first plastics in the history of 3D printing. ABS continues to be popular due to its toughness, which allows it to print high-impact, wear-resistant parts.
ABS also has a higher glass transition temperature, which means that the plastic can withstand higher temperatures (operating temperatures up to +80°C) before it begins to warp. This makes ABS an excellent choice for outdoor model printing or high temperature applications.
ABS printing will require good ventilation in the room as the plastic has an odor. ABS also tends to shrink when it cools, so your printer needs a closed case to keep it warm while printing.
ABS printed models can be easily treated with acetone to smooth layers and create a glossy finish.

SBS & SBS Glass
Alternative material name - Watson by Bestfilament and Prototyper (SBS Pro) by Filamentarno
SBS (styrene-butadiene copolymer) is a high quality material for 3D modeling, great for creativity and design with a 3D pen. SBS has an amazing combination of properties: a high level of hardness and high elasticity, which is maintained even at low temperatures. The lack of shrinkage allows you to print models of large sizes, while the models remain elastic - they are difficult to break or split. Unique coloring recipes allow you to get models with bright, crystal clear colors. Easy processing of finished models (solvent or D-limonene), unsurpassed brilliance and transparency make SBS an indispensable material for bright design solutions.

What is the best plastic for 3D printing? Let's figure it out together!
Plastic for 3D printing
After purchasing your own FDM 3D printer, as well as in the course of choosing it, it becomes necessary to choose the right plastic for 3D printing. But how to do this if you are new to 3D printing and have little to no understanding of this issue? Plastic for printing on a 3D printer is in most cases the main component of successful product reproduction. Therefore, we will not save on knowledge, and will tell you how to choose the best plastic for 3D printing.
Types of plastic for a 3D printer
First of all, you need to consider the types of plastic for a 3D printer. Plastic for 3D printing, or filament, is produced in the form of a thin thread with a diameter of 1.75 mm and 3 mm. Most often, filaments with a thickness of 1.75 mm are used in the basic configuration, but some manufacturers of 3D printers provide the ability to install a 3 mm plastic feed system. Plastic for 3D printing has many varieties, among which the most common are ABS and PLA plastic.
Plastic for 3D printing: varieties
By popularity in the Ukrainian market, the following types of plastic for 3D printing can be distinguished:
- PLA (PLA) or polylactide. Organic and short lived. Suitable for 3D printing of decorative products, but not able to withstand high mechanical loads;
- ABS (ABS) or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. It has a long life and excellent mechanical properties. Heat-resistant and used for industrial purposes. Shrinks on cooling. It is recommended to print in ventilated areas;
- PVA (PVA) or polyvinyl alcohol. A water-soluble material that is used as a support;
- Nylone (Nylon). An alternative to ABS plastic, suitable for many engineering structures. When printing with nylon, it is recommended to ventilate the room;
- HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene). In terms of physical properties, it is a cross between PLA and ABS. May also emit toxic fumes when printed.
Other questions and answers about 3D printers and 3D printing:
Which plastic is best for a 3D printer?
In fact, there are many more types of plastic for 3D printing. This can include flexible, fluorescent and luminescent filament, wood and metallized materials. But in practice, such consumables are rarely used and are needed for narrowly specific purposes. Metallized plastics are interesting in their own right, but they are at the initial stage of development and are inferior in performance to ordinary reinforced materials. “And what plastic is best for a 3D printer?” - you ask. You should choose based on specific goals. If you intend to print decorative elements that will not be subject to payload, you can look at PLA plastic. If your goal is to print gears, structural parts and other things, look at reinforced materials for 3D printing.
What kind of plastic to print?
Please note that not every printer supports the full range of 3D printing materials. Before buying a specific filament, check the specifications of your own device to avoid wasting money. The rest is up to you and your imagination. A huge range of colors and shades of plastic is available for sale, matte and glossy, semi- and fully transparent materials. Such a variety will allow you to make almost any product to your taste.
