Tough PLA is a plug & play material and printable on a wide range of temperatures.
Tough PLA features:
- High impact and stiffness
- Prints like regular PLA – easy to print
- No warpage & no shrinkage
- Printable with various print temperatures
- Suitable for applications which needs to be strong
- Industrial touch and feel
