3D Filament

When selecting filament, consider the intended use of your prints. The most common types are: 

  • PLA (Polylactic Acid): The go-to filament for most prints. It’s easy to use, affordable, and works well for most educational projects. 
  • PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol): Stronger and more heat-resistant than PLA, making it great for functional prints. However, it requires slightly more tuning to print well. 
  • TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane): A flexible filament used for creating bendable parts. While not needed often, having a roll on hand for specialized projects can be useful.
