Polymaker PolyLite LW-PLA filament 1,75 mm, 0,8 kg, kleur Bright Yellow (PA08009)

Creating lightweight 3D printed parts for RC planes, drones, and other weight-sensitive projects can be challenging with standard PLA. Polymaker PolyLite LW-PLA solves this by using active foaming technology to reduce part weight by up to 220% compared to regular PLA.

Who is it for

This filament is ideal for hobbyists and professionals who need strong yet lightweight components. It is particularly suited for model aircraft, drones, cosplay props, and any application where every gram counts.

Main features

• Active foaming technology expands the material during printing, reducing density and weight.
• Foaming ratio up to 220% allows significant weight reduction compared to standard PLA.
• Two printing temperature ranges: 190-210°C for non-foaming (higher density) and 210-230°C for foaming (lower density).
• Excellent dimensional accuracy with a filament diameter tolerance of ±0.03 mm.
• Compatible with most 1.75 mm FDM 3D printers.

Tips

For maximum weight reduction, print at the higher end of the foaming temperature range. Adjust extrusion multiplier or flow rate to compensate for the expansion. Store filament in a dry box to maintain optimal printing performance.
