Additional information
*As PLA materials crystallize, it is advised to either have an agitated dryer, or dry at a lower temperature for a
longer period. This avoids that the pellets stick to each other during drying.
The stone is mildly abrasive. Please consider the use of a hardened steel nozzle and, if used, a gear pump, when
printing with FGF PLA Stone. The stone powder is mildly abrasive and can result in faster wear of brass nozzles.
Storage
Cool and dry (15-25˚C) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
