Description

SUNLU Silk PLA is a PLA filament with a glossy, silk-like finish that gives prints a shiny, almost polished look straight off the bed, with no post-processing needed. The line is built for decorative and artistic models: vases, statues, gift figurines. It comes in 15 colors, including metallic shades like gold, bronze, brass, and copper.

Print Settings

  • Nozzle temperature: 205–235 °C (205–215 °C at 50–100 mm/s, 215–235 °C at 100–200 mm/s)
  • Bed temperature: 50–60 °C
  • Print speed: 50–200 mm/s, around 100 mm/s recommended
  • 1.75 mm diameter, ±0.02 mm tolerance, 1 kg spool
  • Silky glossy surface with no polishing, low shrinkage and warping

The filament works on any FDM printer with a heated bed, from budget bedslingers to fast CoreXY machines. A hardened nozzle isn't required since the material isn't abrasive. It shines on decorative parts where looks matter more than load-bearing strength.

FAQ

No. Silk PLA isn't abrasive and prints fine with a standard brass nozzle. A hardened nozzle is only needed for carbon- or glass-filled filaments.
