Our Tough Pro PLA+ is the best PLA filament for 3D printing your most demanding projects. When you're looking for a tough PLA with excellent temperature resistance that prints as smooth as butter, 3D-Fuel Tough Pro PLA+ is the material for you.
Manufactured in the US from genuine NatureWorks™ 3D870 Ingeo PLA, Tough Pro PLA+ offers a third-generation level of material engineering. Since it's a NatureWorks PLA material, it's a sustainably sourced bio-plastic with an incredible eco-profile.
Tough Pro PLA+ Boasts 8.8x The Impact Toughness Of PLA+
Test parts were 3D printed on a Bambu Lab X1C at 0.2mm layer height with no annealing. A 1kg standard weight was used for the drop test. Video plays at 12.5% of real-time speed.
Tough Pro PLA+ has higher impact strength than ABS and Standard PLA+ with a heat resistance that rivals that of ABS—even before any post-processing. It was designed to meet the growing industrial demand for a material with ABS properties and the legendary ease of printing found in PLA.
Heat Resistance Comparison
You can anneal your design after 3D printing for even better heat resistance and impact toughness. While annealing causes a slight 1-2% shrink, Tough Pro PLA+ provides industry-leading stability in high-heat environments (like a hot car interior) even in its non-annealed state.

Filament Quality:
Manufactured in our US production facilities, we maintain total control over the process to ensure consistent quality. Our +/- 0.02 mm diameter tolerance is monitored in real-time by a multi-axis laser measurement system to prevent jams and extrusion issues. Learn more about our quality standards.
Packaging:
A full 1kg (2.2lbs) of filament arrives on an AMS-compatible plastic spool, vacuum-sealed with a desiccant packet to ensure moisture-free printing right out of the box.
Verified Testing:
Our lab rigorously tests materials on Bambu Lab, Raise3D, MakerBot, LulzBot, Prusa, and Creality printers to guarantee the best results for your industrial or hobbyist applications.
