Yiqiu3D Silk Dual Color Tri-Color PLA Filament 1.75mm 1kg

Brand: Yiqiu3D · Single-color prints need hours of painting to look premium, but this silk dual/tri-color PLA fuses two or three metallic gradients into one spool — vases and art pieces come off the bed already finished.

Quick Answer

How does dual/tri-color silk PLA create the gradient effect?

The spool is co-extruded from two or three differently colored silk PLA strands, so the color transitions continuously along the filament. Each printed layer picks up a slightly different shade, creating a smooth metallic gradient that looks painted — without painting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does dual/tri-color silk PLA create the gradient effect?
The spool is co-extruded from two or three differently colored silk PLA strands, so the color transitions continuously along the filament. Each printed layer picks up a slightly different shade, creating a smooth metallic gradient that looks painted — without painting.
Will it work on my printer?
Yes — 1.75 mm silk dual/tri-color PLA runs on Creality, Bambu Lab, Prusa and Anycubic FDM machines with standard PLA settings. No multi-material hardware is needed; the color mix is built into the filament itself.
What settings should I use?
Use the listed 220 °C nozzle temperature. Silk PLA benefits from a slightly lower temperature for maximum sheen and moderate speeds; a 50–60 °C bed helps first-layer adhesion. A temperature tower helps you find the shiniest sweet spot.
How long does one spool last?
A 1 kg spool of 1.75 mm PLA is roughly 330 meters. Decorative pieces like vases are usually thin-walled, so a spool can produce several elegant pieces — the gradient effect is continuous regardless of how much you use.
How consistent is the color transition?
The co-extrusion ratio is controlled during production, so the transition rhythm stays consistent along the roll and between spools of the same color code. The metallic silk pigments also keep their luster batch after batch.
How fast can I print it?
Moderate speeds of 40–80 mm/s give the best silk sheen and smoothest gradients. Very high speeds can reduce the glossy effect, so slow the outer walls and keep infill moderate for premium-looking results.
What is it best for?
Vases, jewelry boxes, art pieces, trophies, lampshades and decorative giftware where a premium metallic gradient replaces painting. It is a display material — for load-bearing parts, choose our PLA+ or PETG.
How should I store it?
Keep the spool sealed with desiccant away from humidity and direct sun. Dry silk PLA prints with the smoothest sheen and fewest bubbles; re-dry before long prints if the spool has been open a while.
