UltiMaker Tough PLA filament is formulated to be an easy-to-use technical plastic

UltiMaker Tough PLA for S series is a technical PLA (polylactic acid) material with a toughness similar to ABS. It is ideal for printing functional prototypes and tooling at larger sizes – without fear of delamination or warping. UltiMaker Tough PLA offers the same safe and easy use as regular PLA.

• Greater machinability than PLA allows more post-processing techniques
• Similar strength and higher stiffness compared to ABS
• No delamination or warping for reliable printing of larger parts
• Compatible with PVA and Breakaway support materials for full geometric freedom

Below are some key mechanical properties of UltiMaker Tough PLA:

• Good flexural strength (78 MPa)
• Good impact strength (Izod tested to 9 kJ/m²)
• High hardness (79 Shore D)
• Melting temperature (151 °C)

UltiMaker Tough PLA provides a durable material solution for:

• Functional prototyping
• Tooling
• Manufacturing aids
