Galaxy PLA is an intense metallic-coloured PLA 3D printing filament based on the popular EasyFil PLA compound. Galaxy PLA is enriched with a very high amount of silver aluminium micro-flakes, which give printed objects a shimmering, reflective and brilliant effect.
Printed objects exhibit subtle shades of colour and brightness, without layer visible. Despite the high content of aluminium micro-flakes, Galaxy PLA is not abrasive to the 3D printer nozzle.
Unique features
- Extremely shimmering and brilliant finish
- Prints 3D objects without layer visible
- Non-abrasive for the 3D printer nozzle
- Deep, intense colour
- Very easy to print
- Print without warping and without deformation after cooling
- Improved flow and adhesion between layer
- Excellent adhesion of the first layer on different print surfaces (heated and unheated)

*) The above settings are intended as guidelines for finding optimal printing parameters. These ranges should work with most printers, but feel free to experiment outside these values if you feel it is suitable for your printer. There are many different types of printers, hot-end and offset, so it is extremely difficult to provide a universal setting that applies to all.
