Protopasta Protopasta Original Nebula Multicolor HTPLA Filament - 1.75mm (0.5kg)

Protopasta HTPLA combines the ease of PLA 3D printing with the ability to heat-treat your parts post-printing to increase their stiffness at higher temperatures. This makes the PLA a more universal use filament, and this specific blend also features a matte finish. The natural matte finish of this filament also makes it perfect for post-processing procedures like painting or gluing multiple parts together.

  • Prints easily like PLA
  • No Hardened Nozzle
  • Easy Heat Treat Process

HEAT TREAT FOR GREAT PERFORMANCE

PLA and HTPLA are great for many applications, just exactly as they're printed, but once they're stored above 50C, they start to break down. Luckily, the HT is for Heat Treat! Or is it High Temp? Either way, it's a huge improvement to the part's thermal stability--up to three times standard PLA, or non-annealed HTPLA.

Simply place your printed part in your oven for a few minutes (larger parts will need longer times) at 100 - 120C (200 - 250F), and the material will crystallize and become much stiffer. Keep in mind this may warp some architectures of printed parts, so experimentation is required. Best results are with flat and/or supported parts with 100% infill.

HTPLA could be the solution to your printing needs.

NO HARDENED NOZZLE REQUIRED

Many composite materials require a hardened nozzle, but not this filament! This material prints perfectly with a standard brass nozzle without any additional wear compared to standard filaments. This material is perfect for those who want to expand their filament library without having to make hardware changes on their printer, as it offers expanded possibilities without any drawbacks or complications.

Weird question but a customer of mine asked so I had to ask you guys: Do you happen to know or list the Pantone “equivalents” of your filaments? Primary inquiry would be for the MH Build ABS Lime Green (and the MH Pro ABS version in Lime Green.) I’ve used both and if I recall the Pro series is a little more neon than the Build version but I could be mistaken. I have a little Pro left and placed an order for some Build as well so I’ll be able to compare them in a few days but a Pantone number would be handy if you have it. Thanks!
