Easy Printing Experience:

  • Prints similar to PLA

  • Minimal to no warping

  • Ensure the filament feeds straight into the extruder

  • Less hygroscopic than PLA

    • Do not dry this filament—drying will degrade the binder

Fully Sinterable:
Most of our metal filaments are fully sinterable. After printing, your part can be fired in a furnace to become 100% metal.
