Protopasta Protopasta Wonder Black Rainbow Glitter HTPLA Filament - 1.75mm (0.5kg)
Protopasta HTPLA combines the ease of PLA 3D printing with the ability to heat-treat your parts post-printing to increase their stiffness at higher temperatures. It can be heat treated in an oven at 100-120C (200-250F) to increase stiffness and reduce warping with the best results seen on flat and/or supported parts with 100% infill.
- Prints easily like PLA
- No Hardened Nozzle
- Easy Heat Treat Process

Heat Treat for Great Performance
PLA and HTPLA are great for many applications, just exactly as they're printed, but once they're stored above 50C, they start to break down. Luckily, the HT is for Heat Treat! Or is it High Temp? Either way, it's a huge improvement to the part's thermal stability--up to three times standard PLA, or non-annealed HTPLA.
Simply place your printed part in your oven for a few minutes (larger parts will need longer times) at 100 - 120C (200 - 250F), and the material will crystallize and become much stiffer. Keep in mind this may warp some architectures of printed parts, so experimentation is required. Best results are with flat and/or supported parts with 100% infill.
HTPLA could be the solution to your printing needs.
No hardened nozzle required
Many composite materials require a hardened nozzle, but not this filament! This material prints perfectly with a standard brass nozzle without any additional wear compared to standard filaments. This material is perfect for those who want to expand their filament library without having to make hardware changes on their printer, as it offers expanded possibilities without any drawbacks or complications.
Questions
Is it possible to ship to South Korea?
Is it low odor/non toxic while printing?
I'm having problems getting this filament to print well on my ender 3 pro. It's not sticking (even though I turned up the bed heat, extruder heat, and tested the bed level. Does anyone have the same issues or have any pointers?
What's the difference between White and Art White? I'm looking for a semi-translucent, almost pearlescent filament like the sample kind that comes with the Ender 3 Pro.
Good Morning... I am new to 3d printing, just got my first printer for Christmas, the Anycubic Max Pro. I do need to purchase more PLA, as expected. As this is my first printer and again, new to this technology, the PLA products should work fine in this printer? Currently I am using 190 print head temp, but that can be changed if needed. Thank you for your patience in answering my very simple and I know, naïve question. Just making sure about the compability.
how much does the plastic spool weigh without any filament? Trying to see how much filament I have left. Thank you!
I had the same question. Raise3D told me their empty plastic spool is 230 grams while their empty cardboard spools (which all their new filaments come on) weigh 150 grams plus or minus 15 grams.
