UltiMaker Tough PLA Filament-Yellow
New for 2018, UltiMaker Tough PLA is a high-performance PLA (polylactic acid) that’s biodegradable and BPA free. It is stronger and tougher than regular PLA, with very similar mechanical properties to ABS but with faster print speeds.
Specially formulated for high rigidity and tensile strength, UltiMaker Tough PLA is dimensionally stable and is an excellent choice for 3D printing high-impact models and parts. With it, you can print durable, impact resistant models without worrying about your models warping or deforming during the print process.
Designed for functional prototyping, tooling and manufacturing aids, UltiMaker Tough PLA is more reliable than UltiMaker ABS when printing large models and it is stiffer too. It prints with a matte finish and gives off a ‘sweet’ smell during extrusion.
UltiMaker Tough PLA is also compatible with UltiMaker PVA and Breakaway support systems, so it offers full geometric freedom for designers. The tensile strength at break is rated at 37 MPa and the elongation at break is rated at 3.1 per cent. So, this is an exceptionally strong and rigid filament. To find out more about it, contact us or read the technical data sheet attached in the ‘downloads’ tab above.

Shipping to Ireland (Northern or Republic of) is a “DAP” service which means you have to pay any Duty and Taxes. Business customers must email us their EORI and UKIMS numbers.
PALLETS DON'T SHIP VIA DPD - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Some units can only be shipped safely on a pallet due to weight and/or size. Cut off time for orders shipping by pallet is 1.30pm, that’s because we need to book the job before 2pm.
Pallets are big and they ship on big lorries! If there is any problem with a dustbin-lorry size vehicle accessing your property, you need to let us know and we can request delivery by a smaller 7.5T lorry. If this is the case, then PALLET NEXT DAY may not be available.
Depending on your postcode your options at checkout will include PALLET NEXT DAY, PALLET 2-3 DAYS, PALLET COLLECTION HG4 2RN (organise your own pick-up). Some postcodes will show “PALLET 5-6 DAYS” etc.
Pallet deliveries are between 09.00 and 17.00 and we are unable to give you the ETA in advance.
We use a very reliable local supplier, and the pallets go in to the “Palletforce” network. Currently the network don’t use tracking numbers and you can't track online (coming in 2026). Call or email us to check on a delivery or collection.
