At 3D-Fuel, we're working to develop Tough Pro PLA+ profiles for as many popular 3D printers as possible, but unfortunately, we're unable to cover every single 3D printer brand, model, and upgrade permutation.

We have our developed profiles available here for download, but if you have a 3D printer we don't have a profile for yet, you can easily create one using the steps below:

Start with a generic PLA profile
Recommended Printing Temperature: 230-250C
Recommended Bed Temperature: 0-60C
Bed Surface: Smooth or Textured PEI, BuildTak, WhamBam
Recommended Print Speed: 60 – 250 mm/s

How to anneal your Tough Pro PLA+ prints

Drying + Storing Instructions

Dry filament is happy filament!

Drying Temp: 50C
Drying Time: 6-8 hours

Please store Tough Pro PLA+ in an airtight container with desiccant when possible.

Wet filament can result in a poor surface finish on your printed part and may even contribute to clogged nozzles.

Spool Specifications - AMS Compatible

We recently introduced a new lightweight plastic spool that uses 29% less plastic.

It works well in AMS and AMS Lite units, as well as in other units that use a similar spool type.

Outer Diameter: 200mm
Width: 68mm
Empty Weight: 155g
Material: Recycled HIPS

Tough Pro PLA+ Is For Demanding Projects

3D-Fuel Tough Pro PLA+ is the best PLA filament for 3D printing your most demanding projects. When you're looking for a tough PLA with excellent temperature resistance that prints as smooth as butter, 3D-Fuel Tough Pro PLA+ is the material for you.

Manufactured in the US from genuine NatureWorks™ 3D870 Ingeo PLA, Tough Pro PLA+ offers a third-generation level of material engineering for 3D printing. Since it's a NatureWorks PLA material, it's a sustainably sourced bio-plastic with an incredible eco-profile.

Tough Pro PLA+ Boasts 8.8x The Impact Toughness Of PLA+

Test parts were 3D printed on a Bambu Lab X1C at 0.2mm layer height with no annealing. A 1kg standard weight was used for the drop test.

The video plays at 12.5% of real-time speed.

Tougher Than Other PLA+'s And ABS

Tough Pro PLA+ has higher impact strength than ABS and Standard PLA+ with a heat resistance that rivals that of ABS. That's even before any post-processing.

Tough Pro PLA+ was designed with the high impact strength needed in industrial applications to meet the growing demand for a material with the properties of ABS and the printability of PLA.

Heat Resistance Comparison

You can anneal your design after 3D printing for even better heat resistance and impact toughness. One of the big questions we often get about Tough Pro PLA+ is about heat resistance, especially in a scenario like a hot car.

You can gain the maximum heat resistance by annealing your 3D print (furthest print from camera), but that's not always practical or feasible to do, especially as the part shrinks 1-2% during the annealing process and needs to be tightly constrained in a gypsum or salt flour to reduce warping.

But, even without annealing, you can see that the Tough Pro PLA+ part resists heat much better than the Standard PLA+ (nearest to the camera). In some ways, in this test, the Tough Pro PLA+ part (middle part) is partially annealing in the temperature ramp-up. This is why customers state that it can work great even in a hot car in the desert of Arizona!
