FAQ

Q: Are FlashForge filaments compatible with other brands?

Our filaments are compatible with most 3D printers on the market, such as Bambu's A1, P1, X1 series, Creality's K1C, Ender series, and many others.

Q: What filaments do you recommend for beginners?

For beginners, we highly recommend the PLA and PETG series filaments. These materials are user-friendly and offer high success rates. PLA filaments are known for their ease of printing, smooth surface finishes, and environmental friendliness. PETG filaments, on the other hand, provide a good balance of strength and flexibility, making them suitable for a variety of applications. Both series are great choices for those starting out in 3D printing.

Q: What are the features of PLA?

PLA is an environmentally friendly material that is easy to print with and produces smooth surface finishes on printed objects. PLA does not require an enclosed chamber, has a low shrinkage rate, and is less prone to warping and cracking, making it suitable for printing larger models. Additionally, PLA does not emit unpleasant odors during printing, ensuring a safer and more environmentally friendly printing process.

Q: What are the filament diameters and specifications?

The filament diameter is 1.75mm. The standard specification is 1kg, with some options available in 0.5kg.

Q: Do your filaments have any certifications?

Our filaments are certified by SDS, RoHS, and REACH. Quality and safety are guaranteed.

Q: How should I store the filaments?

Recommended storage conditions: Room temperature to 40°C, ≤20% RH (sealed, with desiccant).
