Proto-pasta Metal-Filled HTPLA 3D Filament 1.75 mm, Copper/Bronze

Print parts that look, feel and weigh like real metal. Proto-pasta mixes real metal powder into a heat-treatable PLA (HTPLA). Prints come off the printer with a matte metal look, and you can sand and polish them to a bright shine or let them age to a natural patina.

• Real copper, bronze or brass powder in an Ingeo 3D850 PLA base.
• Prints on most standard FDM printers.
• Abrasive: use a hardened steel nozzle. Brass nozzles wear out quickly with metal-filled filament.
• Finish it like metal: sand, tumble or polish for shine, or let it oxidize for an antique look.
• Heavy, dense and rigid. Heat-treatable for extra stiffness.

Safety: sanding metal-filled prints makes fine metal dust. Wet-sand when you can, and wear a P100 respirator and safety glasses.
