PLA Filament 1.75mm Basic Refill No-Spool & Removable Spool

Brand: Yiqiu3D · Model: fdn · Shipping a bulk refill order costs more than the filament itself? Round spools ship as mostly air, so you pay freight on empty plastic. This spool uses a removable hub: pop the core out, nest the coils flat, and load the same reels you already own - carton footprint and landed cost per spool drop, with no change to the 1.75mm winding you print with.

  • One dull spool in a 200-piece run ruins every matching print after it. Every Silk Gold spool in this run is lot-screened against our Silk Gold master swatch
  • Guessing print settings wastes spools and time. Published specs: 1.75mm diameter

Quick Answer

What is Silk PLA filament and how is it different from standard PLA?

Silk PLA is PLA plastic with a polymer and pigment system that gives the printed surface a high-gloss, silky sheen. The base material is still PLA, so melting and printing behaviour stays close to standard PLA. It is a plastic surface finish, not a metal, glass or stone material.

01 · Why this one

Product highlights

2 reasons

One dull spool in a 200-piece run ruins every matching print after it. Every Silk Gold spool in this run is lot-screened against our Silk Gold master swatch, so the gold stays one gold from the first spool to the last - the sheen is a plastic surface finish, not a metal or glass material.

Guessing print settings wastes spools and time. Published specs: 1.75mm diameter, 1 kg net filament per spool, nozzle range 200-225 C, RoHS documentation available upon request. The filament feeds smoothly through Bowden and direct-drive extruders without clogging on display, award and shop-window models.

What You Receive

Warped, tangled or brittle refills mean failed prints and rework. Each spool is wound consistently and vacuum-sealed with desiccant, so it arrives dry and prints the same from the first metre to the last on common 1.75mm FDM printers - dealer stock keeps and resells without returns.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Silk PLA filament and how is it different from standard PLA?
Silk PLA is PLA plastic with a polymer and pigment system that gives the printed surface a high-gloss, silky sheen. The base material is still PLA, so melting and printing behaviour stays close to standard PLA. It is a plastic surface finish, not a metal, glass or stone material.
Will this spool fit my printer?
The filament is 1.75mm and fits standard 1.75mm FDM printers, including Bambu Lab, Creality, Prusa, Anycubic and Elegoo models. Because the hub is removable, you can also mount the coil on a reusable spool you already own; on Bowden-style machines keep retraction moderate because silk grades string more than standard PLA.
What print settings do you recommend?
Print the nozzle at 200-225 C. On a 0.4mm nozzle, 205-215 C with a moderate speed gives the glossiest surface; pushing speed too high dulls the sheen. No heated-bed value is published for this grade, so follow your printer profile for the build plate.
How much filament is on one spool?
1 kg net filament per spool of 1.75mm Silk Gold. At that diameter, 1 kg is the standard spool quantity in this range.
How consistent is the colour between spools?
Every spool in this run is checked against the same Silk Gold master swatch, so the colour matches within and across orders. The full range carries 9 colour options; the other colours in this listing are Classic Black, Classic White, Cyan, Warm Yellow, Red, Peach Red and Cobalt Blue, in removable-spool and no-spool supply formats.
What is this filament best used for?
Where surface finish sells the product: display models, awards and shop-window prototypes, plus gift and decorative parts. Avoid outdoor or heat-exposed items - the sheen dulls there, and a weather-resistant grade such as ASA is the better fit.
How should I store the spools?
Keep them in the vacuum-sealed pouch with the desiccant until use, then store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat. If a coil has been open in humid air, dry it before printing to protect the surface finish.
