REMARKABLY TOUGH 3D PRINTING FILAMENT
PRO Series Tough PLA 3D printing filament is engineered to outperform standard PLA in every way. PRO Series Tough PLA consistently demonstrates a higher level of detail in 3D prints, exceptional first layer adhesion, improved adhesion between layers, and an overall reduction in warping, curling, and failed 3D prints. PRO Series Tough PLA is made using Ingeo PLA 3D870, creating the perfect material for engineers who create product-ready 3D printed parts on any scale.
PRO Series Tough PLA provides the strength of ABS filament, but it's easy to use like regular PLA
RELIABLE PRINTING FOR DESIGNERS AND ENGINEERS
With little to no warping or delamination, Tough PLA is more impact-resistant than standard PLA, and even has higher stiffness, making it a great choice for tooling and manufacturing aids. Tough PLA is optimized to work with PVA support material to create highly detailed parts with complex geometries. Model-making and printing large, functional parts has never been easier. Do not hesitate to print large or complex parts - Tough PLA is optimized for reliability when printing large scale parts without any enclosures or setting adjustments. Complex geometries for functional parts have never been easier because Tough PLA is compatible with water-soluble PVA support material.
PRINT COMPLEX PARTS WITH EASE
PRO Series Tough PLA is optimized for reliability when printing large scale parts without any enclosures or setting adjustments. Complex geometries for functional parts have never been easier because Tough PLA is compatible with water-soluble PVA support material.
PRO Series Tough PLA started as a basic PLA material. We then added Ingeo PLA 3D870 and engineered in advanced properties with the goal of creating functional and durable end-use 3D printed parts. The results were stunning - a fully functional PLA that's just as easy to print with as regular PLA, but with higher impact resistance and heat tolerance.
PRO Series Tough PLA and PVA support material is the perfect combination for 3D printing larger, complex prototypes.
A POWERFUL 3D PRINTING FILAMENT
Just like regular PLA, Tough PLA is easy to use - with little to no warping or delamination, successful printing is guaranteed - no matter how large or small the project.
This advanced PLA is perfect for designers or engineers that need to produce prototypes quickly and efficiently. Anyone can now use the reliability of PRO Series Tough PLA to ensure that their functional prints turn out just the way they are intended.
PRO Series Tough PLA 3D Printing filament is the go-to option of designers and engineers for creating functional 3D printed parts.
ULTIMATE MACHINING CAPABILITIES
PRO Series Tough PLA's advanced properties provide the ultimate experience for machining, tooling, and tapping. It's a versatile material that can be used in many settings, including creating custom jigs and fixtures. Don't hesitate to use Tough PLA for projects that require tapped threads and bolts - it can even be sanded and finished just as easily as regular PLA for presentation-ready parts.
PRO Series Tough PLA 3D printing filament is the best option for creating functional prototypes.
ANNEALING FOR MAXIMUM TOUGHNESS
While Tough PLA is already much stronger compared to regular PLA right off the printer, maximum strength and heat resistance can be achieved through the post-print annealing procedure. The easiest way to achieve this is by placing your print on a cookie sheet or other oven-safe surface and putting it in a conventional oven at a temperature range of 176-266°F (80-130°C) for 30-60 minutes. After this process is complete, carefully remove the print from the oven and allow it to cool back to room temperature.
PRO Series Tough PLA prints that have been annealed will demonstrate over 4 times the impact strength of standard PLA!

Print with confidence thanks to the MatterHackers' Success Guarantee. We are passionate about helping you succeed in all your 3D printing endeavors. That's why if you're not satisfied, neither are we. Check out the Success Guarantee here.
PLA, aka Polylactic Acid, is a multipurpose material commonly used in 3D printing. PLA is a bioplastic, which means it is made from renewable natural resources such as corn starch and tapioca products. As a biodegradable material, it is much better for the environment, especially compared to petrochemical-based alternatives. This product is a 1 Kg (2.2 lbs) spool of PRO Series Tough PLA filament. All PRO Series filament is vacuum sealed with desiccant for storage and freshness.

Quality Assurance: Why Filament Diameter and Ovality Matters
With PRO Series materials, you know you’re getting the most accurate filament diameter and ovality available. Having a consistent diameter of 3D printing filament is very important - it directly impacts the print quality of your designs. The slicing engine calculates the volume of filament that will be deposited on each layer. The critical value that is input into the slicing engine for that volume is the diameter of the material (either 1.75mm or 2.85mm). Therefore, any variation in that diameter can cause the print to over or under extrude. In terms of raw materials - the filament diameter is one that requires a high level of confidence that you KNOW what you’re using.
MatterHackers Maintains Diameter Tolerance In Every Spool using Laser Gauges
Since we know diameter matters, we obsess over ensuring that PRO Series materials are on the mark so you can create perfectly printed parts. MatterHackers uses two and three-axis laser systems to measure and maintain the accuracy of the filament diameter at 40 hertz (40 times per second) - that way we know the filament diameter is consistent and within our 0.02mm diameter tolerance guarantee. Not only that, but the data for each production run is recorded and stored so we have traceability on all PRO Series materials to establish further confidence in each batch we produce.
Vibrant Color Consistency You Can Rely On
Rest assured knowing that MatterHackers controls and actively analyzes the compounding and coloration of each filament batch, ensuring that your projects are the same from spool to spool. Color continuity between batches is controlled and confirmed with a color-analyzing spectrometer running in line during filament production. Your PRO Series filament will always be the same color PRO Series filament.
