3D Printer Filament

Snapmaker 3D printer filaments have a diameter of 1.75mm, ensuring a dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.05 mm.

• Snapmaker 2.0: PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU (Hardness ≥ 95 Shore A), wood filled PLA, and more being tested.

• Snapmaker Artisan: PLA, ABS, ASA, PETG, TPU (with hardness ≥ 90 Shore A), Breakaway Support for PLA, PVA, HIPS, and Nylon; Carbon Fiber Reinforced Nylon and Glass Fiber Reinforced Nylon (The Hardened 0.4mm Hot Ends are required).

• Snapmaker J1/J1s: PLA, ABS, HIPS, PC, TPU (Hardness ≥ 90 Shore A), TPE, PETG, ASA, PP, PVA, PA, PA-GF, PA-CF.

Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is highly recommended for dissolvable supports due to its water-soluble properties. After printing, simply soaking the model in water dissolves the PVA supports. For optimal results, refer to the PVA printing parameters specific to Snapmaker models like the Artisan, 2.0, and J1/J1s.

To select the right 3D printing filament, first familiarize yourself with various types of filaments, their properties, and applications. Then assess each filament's printability, cost, and availability to make an informed decision based on your project's specific needs.

Note: Snapmaker 3D printers support only 1.75mm filaments.

Polylactic Acid (PLA) is the most commonly used filament because it’s easy to print, biodegradable, and melts at low temperatures.
We currently offer black PLA, white PLA, wood PLA, and glow-in-the-dark green PLA filaments.

3D printing filament properties such as flexibility, strength, and temperature resistance directly impact the print's durability and use. For instance, Snapmaker high-grade Nylon has excellent heat and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for parts like gears that must handle stress and temperature changes.

To properly store 3D printer filament, keep it in a vacuum-sealed bag with desiccant and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Maintaining a temperature around 25°C (77°F) and 40% humidity can extend its usability. For enhanced storage, consider using the SnapDryer, which is designed to keep your filament dry and ready for use.
