Filament is the thermoplastic thread used by
3D printers to print 3D objects. Different types of plastic provide different results when 3D printing objects. Choose from PLA, ABS, PETG or flexible filament for your 3D printer.
By searching for filament by first selecting the printer type, you can be sure that the chosen filament is suitable for your 3D printer. Not all filament types are suitable for all printers and temperatures. Do you already know which type of filament you want and can use? Then you can look this up quickly and easily by searching on filament type.
Filament types we stock include:
- PLA Filament – Safe and easy to use, PLA (Polylactic Acid) is the standard filament used in most 3D prints. At 123-3D, we stock a wide range of PLA filaments, in a wide range of colours – from the standard colour wheel to metallics to even exotic colours like chameleon, transparent, and wood.
- ABS Filament – Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene or ABS is known for its thermoplastic strength, durability, and heat resistance. These properties make it an excellent material for industrial applications or anything that needs strength. At 123-3D, we stock a great range of ABS Filaments, in a range of colours such as brass, transparent and loads more.
- PETG Filament – Practical and easily adjustable, PETG is the go to filament for projects that require both beauty and durability. A combination of PLA and ABS, PETG can endure lower temperatures than ABS and is more flexible than PLA, making it the best of both worlds. 123-3D carries a range of PETG colours, from Orange to Brass.
