Product description
Product Description
Bambu Lab PLA Silk Multi-Color Velvet Eclipse 1 kg is an original two-color PLA silk filament from Bambu Lab in the attractive color combination Velvet Eclipse (Black‑Red). It is a PLA Silk Dual-Color – two separate silk colors are joined in one strand, so printing creates unique color effects that change depending on the viewing angle.
The filament is wound on a reusable ABS spool and is fully compatible with Bambu Lab printers and the AMS system. Thanks to its high gloss and "velvety" surface, it is ideal for decorative models, gifts, figurines, busts, vases, logos, or design prototypes where a striking appearance and a surface without visible layers are important.
Key Features
- Two-color silk effect (Dual-Color) – black and red are side-by-side in one strand, so the object changes appearance based on rotation.
- Velvety, high-gloss surface – hides layers and gives models a luxury look.
- Original Bambu Lab filament – perfectly matched with profiles in Bambu Studio and an RFID chip for automatic settings on Bambu printers.
- Full AMS compatibility – the filament is designed for seamless use with the automatic material station (with proper drying and settings).
- Standard diameter 1.75 mm with tight tolerance for reliable feeding.
- Net material weight 1 kg – suitable for larger projects and long prints.
- Decorative PLA – as easy to print as classic PLA, but with a significantly better surface appearance.
Recommended Use
Filament Bambu PLA Silk Multi-Color Velvet Eclipse is particularly suitable for:
- Decorations and interior accessories – vases, figurines, lamps (with additional temperature reserve), design objects.
- Figurines, busts, and character models – the silk gloss and two-color effect emphasize details.
- Gift and promotional items – trophies, inscriptions, logos, medals, stands.
- Showcase models – presentation prototypes and exhibition pieces.
Due to its properties, this filament focuses more on aesthetics than on technical strength or temperature resistance, therefore it is not suitable for parts exposed to high mechanical or thermal stress.
Printing Recommendations
For the best results, the manufacturer recommends:
- Nozzle temperature: approx. 220–230 °C (use the Bambu PLA Silk profile in Bambu Studio or equivalent settings).
- Bed temperature: approx. 35–45 °C (depending on printer and bed type).
- Print speed: it is recommended to slow down outer walls to ~40 mm/s to make the surface as smooth as possible.
- Filament drying: dry the filament before printing (e.g., 55 °C for approx. 8 hours) and store in a dry place or in a closed box with desiccant.
- Build plates: particularly suitable are Cool Plate with SuperTack surface, Smooth PEI, Textured PEI, or 3D Effect Plate.
For two-color silk filaments, it is generally advisable to:
- slightly limit retractions and check if clogging occurs during fast direction changes,
- ensure good print cooling for long prints to maintain sharp details,
- keep in mind that the exact color pattern depends on the orientation of the model and the perimeter path.
