Filaments / buying notes
Filaments: before you order
Check the material, filament diameter and spool dimensions before comparing colour or pack price.
Use the printer’s supported diameter and material guidance. PLA, ABS and other polymers need their own settings; keep material mass separate from the weight of spool and packaging.
Read the exact material’s temperature, ventilation and storage instructions. Manufacturer settings are a reference to start from, not a promise that every printer will produce the same result.
Keep these details together
- Material and diameter
- Spool compatibility
- Manufacturer settings
