Add a metallic finish to your 3D prints
SteelFill is truly an exciting addition to ColorFabb's range of metal filled filaments! Just like their other metal filaments, SteelFill will look laser sintered with a matte finish immediately after printing. However, with a little sanding and polishing, the infused steel particles will give your printed part an authentic, polished steel look!
Another great characteristic of SteelFill is its weight - the infused steel means it's about three times heavier than standard PLA, which really adds to the authenticity of your prints. This is ideal if you are printing items like jewelry or other artistic pieces.
Whosoever prints this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor!
Technical Specifications
- Printing Temperature: 200C - 215C
- Heated Bed: 50C (A heated bed is not necessesary to print SteelFill but if your 3D printer has a heated built plate we recommend setting it to 50C)
- Printing Speed: 50-70mm/s
- The steel content of this filament makes is very abrasive, causing a lot of wear for standard brass nozzles. It is recommended to use a hardened steel nozzle when printing with SteelFill and other abrasive filaments.
Questions
Does this material rust over time since it has steel in it?
Will the steel in this filament oxidize? Meaning, will it change color over time if it comes into contact with moisture or high humidity?
What grade of steel is used for the steel particles/powder?
what is the density in grams per cm cubed
Just printed my first part and I'm a little disappointed to say the least. The post printed color is more of a dark gray. It will take a crap load of sanding to get it polished. Maybe my printing temp is too high? What temp are you printing at?
How strong is it?
When will you be getting this back in stock???
does this filament fit in the flashforge finder model of 3d printers
can the prints be electroplated ?? Bernard Wiesen
Did someone measured its magnetic properties? I am curious about magnetic saturation and relative permeability
Is there a 4140 stainless steel product like this one?
Is the glass transition temperature of this material the same as regular PLA?
Do you nedd an all metal hotend for this
Can this product be used in an XYZ 3D Printer? A Davinci 1.0. And do you carry a steel nozzle that will fit it?
How corrosive is this filament? Do I need to buy a hardened steel nozzle if I want to print with it?
What is thermal conductivity of the material? I suspect better than just pls but how much worse than aluminum?
what is percentage of the steel in the filament.
How many meters on a 0.75 kg spool?
Is this filament stronger than usual PLA?
How do I polish this filament?
What is the recommended print temperature?
can you let us know the density (roughly) of the filament?
Is this supposed to be compatible out of a .4 nozzle or would you need to go larger due to additives?
In my experience, you would need a larger nozzle due to the additives if you use a .4 it will most likely get blocked up
