Steel-filled Metal Composite PLA

We love using all of the different metal filled filaments, they print like dream on our Prusa XL 5Ts with E3D Diamondback nozzles. Amazing results!

Amazing filament! Zero issues running through external feed with my H2D and generic PLA settings & a .4 nozzle. Chose that route simply because the cardboard spool and avoiding resulting AMS issues. Had a bit of resistance loading initially but once loaded, printed like a dream. I immediately ran PLA through the same nozzle, only because I needed to finish the print, with zero issues as well. Only issue I had was the 500g spool wasn’t 500g. Even with initial purge, I only got 81% of the way through a 388g print. That’s the only reason for the 4 star rating.

The filament itself is great, but the cardboard holder needs to be stiffer. When used in a heated box with bottom rollers, it gets stuck because the cardboard deforms. Either a more compact cardboard or plastic would work well. A center-based spool seems to work fine.
