Prusament PLA is our own in-house made filament. Select filaments are now also made by Printed Solid in Newark, Delaware, USA. Great efforts have gone into ensuring Printed Solid uses the same exact machinery, resin, colorants, spools, processes and tolerances that are used in the Prusa factories. The result is Prusament made in the USA that performs just like Prusament made in Prague.
The whole manufacturing process is closely monitored and tested - we guarantee ±0.02mm precision (± 0,03 for blends) and highly-consistent colors. You can inspect parameters of every spool we made at . Check !

Premium-Grade Materials And Thorough Testing
The whole manufacturing process is closely monitored and tested – string diameter, color consistency, and mechanical properties – to make sure that every spool is perfect.
± 0.02 mm Manufacturing Guaranteed Precision
We believe the industry standard of 0.05 mm isn’t sufficient for perfect 3D printing. Instead, we guarantee ±0.02mm precision (± 0.03 for blends) and highly-consistent colors in our filaments.

Beginners tips & tricks
Popular among both beginners and advanced users
PLA is the easiest-to-print filament we make. It’s reliable and it doesn’t require any print preparations or difficult post-processing methods. If you’re new to 3D printing, it’s best to start with PLA before using other materials.
Sanding
When post-processing PLA, it’s better to use wet sanding. Without water you’ll quickly start heating the plastic by friction, it will melt locally and deform. Also, without water, the sanding material would clog easily.
Gluing
PLA can be glued with many types of glue. We recommend using superglue for most of the parts. Certain PLA filaments may be also glued using acetone, however, it strongly depends on the various additives and colors used.
Notes
This PLA is made in-house by Printed Solid.
1.75 mm filament is manufactured with precision of ± 0.02 mm (±0.03 for blends)
Before printing, make sure the surface of the heatbed is clean as described in the
