This item ships directly from The Virtual Foundry and may ship separately from the rest of your order. Separate shipping charges may occur.

Specs: Each sample is 100g of 1.75mm or 2.85mm filament. Specs for various filaments can be found here and on the product pages for individual filaments.

High Compatibility: This Filamet™ enables any open-architecture Fused Filament Fabrication 3D printer to produce metal objects. Even works in 3D printing pens!

Easy to Print: All you need is an FFF/FDM 3D printer, a 0.6 / 0.8mm hardened steel nozzle, and a model to print. Print like regular PLA. Place your spool so that the filament coming off is going straight into the extruder. The flow rate in your slicer may need to be adjusted up to 135%. Little to no warping occurs during printing.

Advanced Properties: Filamet™ is less hygroscopic than regular PLA. Filament dryers have adverse effects on Filamet™. Spools should not be dried.

Fully Sinterable Metal Filament: Once fired in a sintering furnace, the result is 100% metal. Sintering trials have not been conducted for some of these products. Instructions for sintering tested products can be found here.

Eliminate tooling and machining costs for short run manufacturing, prototyping, and one-off metal part needs.

Note: All sales final except in cases of defective product.
