15 m Sample | 1.75 mm | Timberfill®
Description
Timberfill® is a material with a high quality of printing and excellent lamination. Made of natural ingredients, can be biodegraded by industrial composting.
Timberfill® is a composite filament filled with natural fibers isolated from spruce. The material exhibits similar mechanical features as PLA. Models printed with this material have a genuine appearance and temporary smell of wood.
Features:
- Aesthetically appealing wood finish
- Aromatic and pleasant smelling during the printing process and short after
- Can be easily post-processed using standard sandpaper
- Possible to stain after printing
- Very low tendency to warp or shrink
- Can be printed well at high speeds
- Rigid, not easily bendable
- Low brittleness in bulk object
- Not abrasive
- Safe to use in electrical and electronic equipment
