Prusament PLA Blood Red 1kg (NFC)

Prusament PLA Blood Red 1kg (NFC)

Prusament PLA Blood Red is a high-quality PLA filament from Prusa Polymers in an intense, deep red color reminiscent of a blood-red shade. The filament is wound on a spool with an integrated NFC chip, which allows for automatic material identification on compatible Original Prusa printers.

Thanks to very strict quality control and manufacturing tolerances, Prusament is among the most accurate PLA filaments on the market. Each batch undergoes detailed measurement of diameter and color consistency, so you can rely on stable printing without unnecessary setting adjustments.

Main advantages

• Premium PLA filament manufactured under the Prusament brand (Prusa Polymers)
• Blood Red shade – a bold, rich color suitable for decorations, figures, and technical parts
• Integrated NFC chip for easy material identification on supported Original Prusa printers
• Very easy printing – ideal for beginners and advanced users
• Low thermal expansion – minimal warping and deformation, suitable even for larger models
• Excellent detail rendering – suitable for figures, miniatures, and design models
• Highly consistent diameter and ovality of the filament thanks to strict output control

Recommended use

Prusament PLA Blood Red is a versatile material for everyday printing:

• design and decorative models
• figures, miniatures, and gaming accessories
• prototypes and presentation models
• logos, signs, promotional items
• parts not exposed to high temperatures (indoor use)

Thanks to its bold red color, it is ideal wherever you want to attract attention – from cosplay accessories to electronics stands and gift items.

Recommended print settings

A specific profile for Prusament PLA is available in PrusaSlicer; general recommendations are below:

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 200–215 °C
• Bed temperature: approx. 50–60 °C
• Print speed: typically 40–60 mm/s (depending on model complexity)
• Print surface: textured or smooth PEI, or another surface suitable for PLA
• Cooling: high (80–100%) for best details and overhangs

PLA generally does not require an enclosed chamber and prints very well even on open FDM printers.

Material properties

• Material: PLA (polylactic acid)
• Type: standard PLA filament without reinforcing fibers
• Printing difficulty: low – suitable for beginners
• Odor during printing: minimal
• Deformation / warping: very low
• Heat resistance: typically up to approx. 50–55 °C (PLA is not suitable for hot environments, e.g., in a car in the sun)

Who is Prusament PLA Blood Red suitable for

• Owners of Original Prusa printers (MK3/S/+, MK4, MINI/MINI+, XL, etc.)
• Users of other FDM printers looking for reliable premium PLA filament
• Beginners who want the easiest and most stable first experience with 3D printing
• Creators who emphasize surface quality, color consistency, and sharp details
