eSUN ePLA-Lite PLA Grey 1.75mm 1Kg 3D Printer Filament
Price in Sri Lanka

The eSUN ePLA-Lite PLA Grey 1.75mm 1kg 3D Printer Filament is a cost-effective, high-reliability FDM 3D printing filament engineered for consistent extrusion, high dimensional accuracy, and smooth surface quality. Upgraded from standard PLA polymers, ePLA-Lite Grey delivers improved mechanical toughness, excellent bed adhesion, and virtually zero warping while providing a neutral, industrial-grade grey finish that highlights fine geometric details, contours, and surface textures.

Features

• Smooth Flow and Jam-Free Extrusion: Formulated for stable melt fluidity and uniform thermal viscosity, preventing hotend clogs, stringing, and nozzle oozing across wide printing temperature ranges.
• Detail-Enhancing Neutral Grey Finish: The matte-satin grey tone provides exceptional contrast for visual inspection, accentuating fine features, chamfers, and curves without the glare of white or the shadow-hiding nature of black.
• Low Warping and Strong First-Layer Adhesion: Minimal thermal contraction ensures flat, reliable first-layer bonding to smooth/textured PEI, glass, PC, and magnetic spring steel build plates without lifting at the corners.
• High Dimensional Accuracy (±0.03mm): Manufactured with dual-axis laser diameter monitoring to ensure uniform filament thickness, resulting in consistent volumetric flow and clean layer stacking.
• Eco-Friendly and Low Odor: Sourced from renewable plant starches (corn/sugarcane), producing virtually no irritating fumes or harsh odors, making it safe for classrooms, offices, and indoor workstations.
• Neat Precision Machine Winding: Even, layer-by-layer spool winding prevents tangles, overlaps, and knots that could otherwise cause feeding interruptions during long print jobs.

Common Applications

• Architectural and Industrial Scale Models: Producing scale replicas, building models, and urban mockups where neutral surface tones are required for evaluation and presentation.
• Miniatures, Sculptures & Concept Art: Printing highly detailed character models, tabletop gaming miniatures, and sculptures that serve as ideal baselines for post-processing, priming, and painting.
• Functional Prototypes & Mechanical Assemblies: Fast, accurate validation of snap-fit components, brackets, gear assemblies, and ergonomic product prototypes.
• Everyday Workshop & Home Utilities: Crafting modular organizers, wall brackets, electronics stands, and tool holders with a clean, professional workshop aesthetic.

Professional Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Optimal Slicer Profile Settings: Set your nozzle temperature to 210°C and build platform to 55°C as an initial baseline. Run part cooling fans at 100?ter the first layer for sharp bridges and overhangs.
• Keep the Build Surface Clean: Wipe down the print platform with 70% to 90% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) before printing to remove oils and dust, ensuring strong first-layer adhesion without relying on glue.
• Standard Brass Nozzle Friendly: ePLA-Lite contains no abrasive additives and can be used continuously with standard 0.4mm brass nozzles without risk of wear.
• Storage Recommendations: Store the spool in a sealed vacuum bag with silica desiccant packets or an active filament dry box when not in use to prevent moisture absorption, preserving material ductility and preventing brittleness.
