3DQF PLA is made in Greater Manchester right here in the UK, with tight tolerances, the highest quality material and a fully recyclable custom cardboard spool. We're big fans of 3DQF filament and it's great to support a fellow small UK business in the maker scene.
This is 3DQF Regal Purple 1.75mm PLA in a generous 1kg spool. Regal Purple is a 'mature' pearl purple with a slight gold twist (very difficult to capture with a camera!). A classy and interesting option for those who want something purple but not the usual in-your-face bright shouty-shouty purple! This will look superb with models, busts, decorations and more. We also have many other colours available in the store!
Not the purple you were looking for? We've got lots of other purple options in the store:
3DQF PLA holds a tight tolerance of 0.06mm - and that's over a 21-kilometre run (a human hair is .04!)! This 3D Printing filament enjoys higher temperatures than others on the market (200-225°C), so we suggest starting at 210°C and adjusting to suit your printer/results.

Like all PLA, keep it dry and away from humidity as much as possible
...and always check your levels...then check em' again!
