SA Filament PLA Speed is designed to bridge the gap between our standard PLA and PLA Hyper range. It is made for users who want faster print speeds than regular PLA, while still keeping the easy printing experience, clean finish and reliability that PLA is known for. With print speeds of up to 450 mm/s, PLA Speed is ideal for modern high speed 3D printers, rapid prototyping and everyday production printing.
What Makes PLA Speed Different?
PLA Speed is a modified PLA filament formulated for improved flow, faster extrusion and consistent layer bonding at higher print speeds.
Where standard PLA is best suited for normal to medium speed printing, PLA Speed allows you to print faster while still achieving a smooth, glossy finish and reliable results.
It sits perfectly between:
Standard PLA: up to around 300 mm/s
PLA Speed: up to around 450 mm/s
PLA Hyper: up to around 600 mm/s
Key Features
High Speed Printing
PLA Speed is designed for faster printing without sacrificing print quality. It allows your printer to move faster while maintaining consistent extrusion and good surface detail.
Improved Melt Flow
The modified formulation helps the filament melt and flow more efficiently through the nozzle, making it easier for the hotend to keep up at higher speeds.
Gloss Finish
PLA Speed has a clean, glossy surface finish that gives prints a premium look straight off the printer.
Tough and Reliable
Compared to regular PLA, PLA Speed is designed to offer improved toughness and dependable layer bonding, making it suitable for both decorative and functional prints.
PLA Speed keeps many of the benefits that make PLA so popular:
Low warping
Good dimensional accuracy
Easy bed adhesion
Suitable for most modern FDM printers
