Silk Metallic PLA

Silk PLA has a metallic shine to it. 3d printed parts look very similar to real metal.

It is not brittle & doesnt crack easily. It is not rigid, & not elastic.
Though not as strong as PLA+, the support removal is good enough for a decent surface finish.

Perfect for simulating Silver, Copper, Bronze, Aluminum & metal extrusions.

Silk metallic PLA can string if you don’t get your retractions right. Please dry the roll before printing it, even a brand new roll will have some moisture due to the nature of this material.

I have dealt with the 3D Printer Store for several months now and have to say that the experience has been very positive.
Zubbin is extremely knowledgeable in this field, enthusiastic, honest and responsive.
Pre and Post Purchase customer support has been great. He will have your best interest in mind and will recommend the best product for your needs.
My positive experience dealing with him professionally has led me to buy product from him for personal use.

We are very lucky to have such a supplier providing these kinds of specialized 3D Printers, Filaments, accessories and services in New Zealand.

The rare filaments can sometimes be difficult to source but he will do his best to find alternatives to get what's needed ASAP or even suggest proper alternatives.

I am looking forward to future collaboration with this supplier.

I recently purchased a 3D printer from this business and also took their training. Zubbin's knowledge and assistance is top-notch. He provided valuable insights not only on 3D printing but also related topics. Highly recommended!!

Solid company to deal with. I have ordered filament multiple times from this company. I have also been advised on better filament options than what I ordered, which worked out really well. Will continue to shop here!

Great service from these guys. On my most recent order there was a stellar turnaround of only 24 hours between initial stock query and the filament being in my printer.

Shipping and packaging was excellent and best in market pricing. I had an issue with a misunderstanding about the particular properties of the resin I purchased but Zubbin responded quickly and helped me resolve the issue. Perfect customer service, they have gained a loyal customer.

These guys are awesome. I used to buy my filament from overseas for my projects and needed something in a hurry and went looking for something local. I'm so glad I did. Not only are the prices as good or better than what I was getting overseas and even more of a deal when considering the pricing I was paying for shipping their turn around each time has been next day. Great range of in stock filaments, good prices, super fast turn around and excellent customer service.

Sent them an email explaining what I was trying to achieve and asked for their advice. They responded promptly and recommend a basic 3d printer which turned out absolutely fit for purpose. Ordered online and with good communication i had printer within days. Will definitely return when I upgrade. This printing stuff is very addictive.
