Description
Polylite Light Weight PLA
Applications
LW-PLA (light weight PLA) is a a cutting-edge category of PLA filaments specifically engineered for RC planes and other applications that require a lightweight and easy to print material. The low density is achieved through the use of a foam structure, which offers a unique balance of strength and weight for 3D printing. Combined with an attractive matte surface finish, PolyLite™ LW-PLA lends itself to a wide range of applications including:
- Aerodynamic RC plane wings
- RC-plane fuselages
- Cosplay props
- Weight critical parts in research applications
- Other lightweight components.
- Architectural models.
- Homewares.
