Filament

Stratafil

Dried, vacuum-sealed, wound to ±0.02 mm. Swatches are rendered material chips — the polymer's optical character, not a stock macro shot.

Stratafil PLA Matte

$24

Low-sheen PLA that hides layer lines and photographs like machined nylon. Dried, vacuum-sealed, wound to ±0.02 mm.
