{"product_id":"tough-pro-pla-bubblegum-pink-1-75mm","title":"Tough Pro PLA+, Bubblegum Pink, 1.75mm","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eOur Tough Pro PLA+ in Bubblegum Pink, 1.75mm, comes on a full 1kg AMS-compatible spool and is built for 3D-printing projects that demand both toughness and reliable surface finish. Manufactured in the United States from genuine NatureWorks 3D870 Ingeo PLA, this filament offers a sustainable, bio-based foundation with a true performance edge. What sets Tough Pro PLA+ apart\n- Exceptional toughness and heat resistance: Tough Pro PLA+ delivers higher impact strength than standard PLA+ and even rivals ABS in heat tolerance, providing more durable parts straight off the printer.\n- Real-world durability, without sacrificing printability: In testing, Tough Pro PLA+ demonstrated up to 8.8x the impact toughness of PLA+ parts, while still printing with the smooth, buttery extrusion you expect from a premium PLA+.\n- Eco-conscious materials, premium engineering: As a NatureWorks PLA, it carries an impressive eco-profile. 3D-Fuel’s third-generation formulation balances stiffness, toughness, and thermal performance for demanding applications.\n- Heat resistance that stands up to hot environments: Even without post-processing, Tough Pro PLA+ resists heat far better than Standard PLA+, making it a practical choice for automotive interiors and other heat-exposed parts. For maximum heat resistance, post-process by annealing. Annealing for maximum performance (optional but effective)\n- Post- processing boost: Annealing your printed part increases heat resistance and toughness further, unlocking ABS-like performance with PLA+ printability.\n- Practical constraints: Expect a 1–2% shrinkage during annealing and plan to constrain the part tightly in gypsum or salt flour to minimize warping. Print quality and processing tips\n- Printing parameters: 220–250°C nozzle temperature; 0–60°C bed temperature. Suitable bed surfaces include PEI, heated bare glass, blue painter’s tape, BuildTak, and WhamBam.\n- Print speed: 60–250 mm\/s for efficient, reliable extrusion without sacrificing part quality.\n- Consistency you can trust: All 3D-Fuel filaments are manufactured in United States facilities with tight process controls, including a multi-axis laser measurement system that monitors diameter and ovality in real time. Diameter tolerance is +\/- 0.02 mm, helping prevent under- or over-extrusion. Material and packaging details\n- Filament color and diameter: Bubblegum Pink, 1.75 mm.\n- Spool and packaging: 1 kg of Tough Pro PLA+ arrives on an AMS-compatible spool and is vacuum-sealed to preserve filament quality.\n- Filament quality and provenance: 3D-Fuel emphasizes filament quality with accessible SDS and TDS resources for quick reference, and a clear commitment to filament quality through US production facilities. Ideal use cases\n- Durable prototypes and functional parts that require higher impact resistance and heat tolerance.\n- Objects that will experience handling, drop stresses, or exposure to warmer environments where standard PLA+ may fail.\n- Projects that benefit from a smooth, glossy or finely detailed surface finish typical of high-quality PLA+ filaments, with the added resilience of Tough Pro formulations. What you’ll get\n- 1 kg of Tough Pro PLA+ filament in Bubblegum Pink, 1.75 mm.\n- Ready for immediate printing on compatible 3D printers, with detailed print profiles and post-processing guidance available from the SDS\/TDS resources. Choose Tough Pro PLA+ for parts that must survive impact and heat while maintaining the ease of use and print quality you expect from PLA+. This filament balances sustainability, performance, and practical post-processing options, making it a standout choice for engineering-minded makers and production-focused hobbyists alike.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"3D-Fuel","offers":[{"title":"Tough Pro PLA+ \/ 1kg 1.75mm Spool \/ Bubblegum Pink","offer_id":45321411756111,"sku":"A35P4","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Tough Pro PLA+ \/ 4kg 1.75mm Spool \/ Bubblegum Pink","offer_id":45321411788879,"sku":"A37P4","price":119.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/2406\/7407\/files\/pro-pla-bubblegum-pink-175mm-968203.jpg?v=1779973254","url":"https:\/\/hobbytechsupply.com\/products\/tough-pro-pla-bubblegum-pink-1-75mm","provider":"Hobby Tech Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
