Prusament PLA Galaxy Purple 2 kg (NFC)

Product description

Prusament PLA Galaxy Purple 2 kg (NFC) is a top-tier PLA filament from Prusa Polymers production, in the popular Galaxy Purple shade – a deep purple with fine silver glitter for a starry sky effect. This 2 kg spool is suitable for users who print frequently or need larger amounts of material for bigger projects, without the need for frequent spool changes.

Prusament PLA is known for its very precise manufacturing and thorough quality control – diameter tolerance is typically around ±0.02 mm, each spool is precisely wound and equipped with an NFC chip for easy identification of material type and color variant on supported Original Prusa printers.

PLA is an ideal material for easy and trouble-free 3D printing, suitable even for beginners. Thanks to low shrinkage, it almost does not warp, adheres well to common print surfaces, and allows printing of even very detailed models.

Main advantages

• Premium PLA filament from Prusa Polymers – high and consistent material quality
• Galaxy Purple color – rich purple with metallic glitter for a luxurious look of prints
• Large 2 kg spool – less frequent changes, advantageous for long and voluminous prints
• NFC chip in the spool – simple material identification on compatible Original Prusa printers
• Very easy printing – minimal warping, excellent bed adhesion
• High diameter precision – stable material flow, excellent surface quality and details
• Suitable for large models, miniatures, figurines, decorations, prototypes, and functional parts for interior use

Recommended use

Prusament PLA Galaxy Purple is ideal for:

• Design and decorative objects – vases, statues, interior accessories
• Figurines, miniatures, cosplay and collectible models – the shimmering effect emphasizes details and shapes
• Representative prototypes and presentation models – for example for customers or exhibitions
• Front-facing visible parts – covers, frames, holders, promotional items

Thanks to easy printing, it is suitable for both beginners and advanced users who want a reliable premium filament with an impressive appearance.

Recommended print settings

Typical recommended parameters for Prusament PLA:

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 210 ± 10 °C (usually 200–220 °C depending on printer and speed)
• Bed temperature: 40–60 °C (can be printed without heating on some surfaces)
• Cooling: 100% part fan – for clean details and bridging
• Recommended surfaces: smooth, textured or satin PEI sheet, or glass with a suitable adhesive agent

For best results, it is recommended to use ready-made Prusament PLA profiles in PrusaSlicer or a similar slicer and perform fine-tuning according to the specific printer.

Material properties

• Material: PLA (polylactide)
• Hard and rigid material, but relatively brittle – not suitable for impacts and bending
• Low temperature resistance – mechanical properties degrade above approx. 55–60 °C
• Low shrinkage – minimal warping and layer delamination
• Without significant odor during printing
• Suitable for precise details and smooth surfaces

PLA is generally not ideal for outdoor use (lower UV resistance, low temperature resistance) and for applications exposed to higher temperatures (e.g. in a car in the sun).

Technical specifications

Tips for printing and processing

• Keep the print surface clean – ideally clean with isopropyl alcohol on a cold or slightly warm bed.
• For higher part strength, increase the number of perimeters rather than the infill itself – most strength comes from the outer walls.
• Postprocessing: PLA is harder to dry sand – wet sanding is recommended for a smoother surface.
• Joining multiple parts is easy using cyanoacrylate glues (superglues) or suitable epoxies.

Safety and storage

• Store in a dry place, ideally in a closed bag or box with desiccant to limit moisture absorption.
• Although PLA as a material is generally considered relatively safe, it is not recommended for long-term use of prints in direct contact with food without a suitable surface finish.

Prusament PLA Galaxy Purple 2 kg (NFC) is an ideal choice if you want a maximally reliable, easy-to-print and visually impressive filament for everyday and representative projects.
