Description
Polymaker PolyLite PLA - Glow in the Dark
Color: Glow Blue
Diameter: 1.75mm
Weight: 1kg
Note: Glow PLA is abrasive, use of a hardened nozzle is recommended
PolyLite™ PLA is a high-quality PLA designed for reliability and ease of printing.
PolyLite™ PLA features Jam-Free™ technology: Jam-Free™ technology improves the heat stability of Polymaker’s PLA filaments with softening temperatures over 140 °C. As a result, Polymaker’s PLA filaments show minimal softening in the “cold end” and can melt rapidly once entering the heating zone, leading to excellent printing quality with less risk of nozzle jams.
Printing Temperature: 190˚C - 230˚C
Bed Temperature: 25˚C - 60˚C
Printing Speed: 40mm/s - 60mm/s

Drying Settings: 55˚C for 6h
(Only if the material has absorbed moisture)
PolyLite™ PLA is based on a high molecular weight PLA from Natureworks, which makes it one of the most rigid PLA material on the market.
You can check the Young's modulus and bending strength data of PolyLite™ PLA in its TDS, which represent its rigidity, and compare it with other materials of the Polymaker portfolio.
PolyLite™ PLA Technical Data Sheet
Polymaker Jam-Free™ Technology increases the heat resistance of the filament itself (not the printed part) to 140˚C.
This prevent any jamming issue due to the hot end heat creep issue.
Heat creep is the process of heat spreading irregularly throughout your hot end, softening the filament before entering the melting chamber and jamming the filament by making it expand in the cold end..
The increase of the filament heat resistance from 60˚C to 140˚C ensures a Jam-Free experience.
(Note the printed part will have the same heat resistance as regular PLA: ~60˚C)
