General product information

  • How do I choose the right filament for my 3D printer?
    When choosing 3D filament, pay attention to the maximum printing temperature of your 3D printer, the nozzle diameter and whether or not a heated bed is necessary. With most 3D printers you can choose from two or more filament types. In the table below you can compare the properties and choose the most suitable type.

    Would you like to see immediately which filament types are suitable for your 3D printer? Then use the option search by 3D printer brand. Select your printer and immediately see which filament is suitable.
