PolyLite PLA Pro

Key Advantages

• Outstanding Impact Strength & Rigidity
  Significantly improved toughness over regular PLA, while maintaining considerable stiffness for precise, durable prints.

• Ease of Printing
  Same friendly printability as regular PLA—minimal concerns with warping, low extrusion temps—plus no heated bed strictly required.

• Jam‑Free™ Technology
  Polymaker’s proprietary technology raises filament heat resistance from ~60 °C to over 140 °C, reducing the risk of nozzle jams caused by heat creep.
