Description
LW-PLA-HT Olive Green 1.75mm/2200grams (2.2kg) spool – ColorFabb
Color: Olive Green
Diameter: 1.75mm
Weight: 2200gram spool
Brand: ColorFabb
Material: colorFabb LW-PLA-HT
Diameter Tolerance: ± 0.1 mm
Density: 1.210-1.430 g·cm-3 (non activated density)

For printing thin structures such as RC plane parts we recommend printing the first layer at 100% flow using 200C printing temperature. Then increase the temperature for the second layer (around 235C) to activate the foaming and reduce flow to 50-60%.
Advised 3D printing temperature 195-240C
Advised 3d print speed 40 – 100 mm/s
Advised Heated bed (if you have one, not strictly necessary): 50-60C
Meet ColorFabb’s new generation LW-PLA-HT. This formulation features an increased temperature resistance compared to our generic LW-PLA.
Thin printed structures will be able to handle heat from external sources such as the sun much better and prolong the time until failure. Not convinced? Check out ColorFabb’s comparison video in the image gallery between regular LW-PLA and LW-PLA-HT.
ColorFabb’s LW-PLA-HT is the best filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay and other light weight items. Parts are feather light, yet retain good strength and are easy to cut, trim and sand.

Demonstration of colorFabb LW-PLA-HT heat resistance
Demonstration heat resistance colorFabb LW-PLA-HT
Pros
better heat resistance compared to LW-PLA
print light weight parts due to active foaming process
darker colors are less prone to heat deformation
takes paint really well
Cons
slightly higher density at maximum foaming, compared to LW-PLA
you’ll have to adjust your LW-PLA gcodes to accommodate LW-PLA-HT
higher temperature resistance of the material can lead to more warping
