[3D Printing Materials] Brass 3D Printing Material Turns Your 3D Printer Into a Metal Workshop!

Are you tired of the plastic feel of 3D printed ABS and PLA? ColorFabb hears you! This 3D printing material, a blend of 80% brass powder and 20% PLA/PHA, is three times heavier than regular PLA, giving a substantial metallic feel. When you lightly touch the surface of the finished product, the cool touch of metal is refreshing. Objects freshly printed have a unique rough surface, and unlike regular PLA which is less suitable for post-processing, this metallic 3D printing material is very easy to polish. With simple processing, it can emit a metallic luster. You can freely choose how to present the finished product, unlike any other 3D printing material on the market! The 3D printer used for the samples below is theUltimaker 2!

Use sandpaper to smooth out the surface lines, then use steel wool to polish it to a metallic shine. Please note that gloves should be worn throughout the process to avoid scratching your hands!



Polished brass resembles gold, making it perfect for printing small items like gold ingots!

TIPS!
1. Because post-processing involves sanding and polishing to make the material reflective, it is not recommended to print overly complex shapes to reduce post-processing difficulties.
2. Post-processing will thin the thickness of the 3D printed object, so we recommend setting the outer shell thickness to 0.8mm or more before printing.
3. Since this 3D printing material is not made of pure metal but a mixture of PLA and metal powder, it is not conductive.
