## Description

desertcart.com: Polymaker Light Weight PLA Filament 1.75mm Black 0.8kg, PolyLite 3D Printer PLA Filament Black Low Density, Print with Most 3D Printers : Industrial & Scientific

Review: It took some dialing in but it is worth it! - The important bits: layer bonding and strength is incredible! very rigid and much lighter than PLA or PLA+ but heavier than foaming lightweight PLA. I am going to use this on all my future 3D printed planes! Now my long boring story :) Patience was the key with this filament! I have seen too many great reviews to think that there was an issue with the filament itself. I took the recommended approach of printing using PLA settings and increasing the retraction distance and speed to the settings recommended on polymakers website. My prints were completely unusable initially. I didn't have a lot of time after work to run calibration tests but I did what I could in my free time. I would change one setting and print a part, I didn't write anything down and I didn't keep track of my changes. The poor print quality was completely my fault for not taking the proper time to dial in the print settings. I even tried multiple slicers! I finally had a day off! no chores, no work... time to get this right :) I started with the basics, e-step calibration and PID tuning. Those were very close to perfect already so I knew that wasn't my issue. I started back with the defualt PLA settings and did a retraction test (two 10mm cubes spaced 40mm apart). I would do a print and take a picture, record the settings and results and then make only 1 change to 1 setting at a time until I got the setting dialed in. Then I would move to the next setting. Rinse and repeat until I got everything dialed in. About 10 hours later, a nearly perfect print with just the smallest amount of stringing! Don't do what I did and just get frustrated and start throwing different settings at this stuff! It took the perfect mix of speed, temp, retraction speed & distance as well as extra prime after retraction to get this stuff dialed in. A change to any one of those setting will throw off the print! Cura 5.10 Artillery Sidewinder X2 (love this printer!) Fulament magnetic flex PEI bed Temp 190 Bed temp 60 (I always run 60 for everything, just seems to work) Print speed 40mm/s Travel speed 250mm/s Retraction 3.5mm Retraction Speed 35mm/s Extra prime after retraction .36mm My issue was an extreme amount of stringing and oozing. I am printing a single walled print and it is important to have a strong Z seam. The loss of material during travel moves and layer changes made the Z seam very weak.
Review: Good stuff for what it is! - This stuff prints great. Just like regular PLA except with a little post cleanup required. However, it must be noted that if you’re trying to print RC planes, this is NOT the active foaming LW PLA that many RC planes are supposed to be printed out of. That being said, this pre foamed filament will likely still work, just a bit heavier and more expensive. Way easier to print though.

## Features

- Lightweight PLA: PolyLite Lightweight PLA filament has a low density of 0.9g/cm³, compared to 1.17g/cm³ for standard PLA. It uses the same printing settings as regular PLA, ensuring easy compatibility with most 3D printers. Unlike traditional lightweight PLA, it does not foam during printing, preventing common foaming issues.
- High Rigidity & Good Layer Adhesion: Polymaker Lightweight PLA filament provides high rigidity and excellent layer adhesion, making it ideal for creating stiff parts for radio-controlled planes. This reliable Low Weight PLA features great bed adhesion, consistent color, and dimensional accuracy, while eliminating issues like warping, jamming, blobs, and layer delamination. Note: Turn off the fan for the first layer to improve bed adhesion.
- 7 Colors Available & Matte Finish: PolyLite LW-PLA is available in white, black, grey, wood, bright yellow, bright orange, and bright green. It produces a matte surface finish that conceals layers and is easy to paint, allowing you to create unique prints for yourself or as gifts for friends.
- Tangle-Free & Moisture-Free: PolyLite PLA-LW filament is meticulously wound to prevent tangling and is dried and vacuum-sealed in a resealable ziplock bag with a desiccant. Always hold the filament tip to avoid nodes and utilize the spool holes to help prevent tangling.
- Printing Settings: Nozzle: 190°C, Bed: 50°C, Speed: 50mm/s (Same as regular PLA).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Give it a second chance
*by N***E on June 22, 2023*

This filament is pre-foamed! If you are printing an eclipson model plane, their recommended settings will not work. I almost returned this filament but eventually got it going after much trial and error. Obviously settings will change based on your printer, but I figured I’d share what I changed vs Eclipsons guide. Here were my findings for a V1 Ender 3 with a steel nozzle. Nozzle: 208 Bed: 60 Flow: 139 Retraction: 3.5 I followed all the other eclipson recommendations. I really had to jack up the flow rate to get it to flow smooth. It prints nicely, marginally heavier than ColorFabb. It appears to be very strong as well. I do have some issues with stringing during travel, and it appears to be just a part of this filament. I brought retraction back even further, but was seeing some issues with incomplete extrusion right after it begins printing after travel.
