eSun have made the move to Cardboard Spools. You can find out more about this here. You may receive a mix of different types of spools as we work through our stock.
The latest batch of cardboard spools now has a waxed edge designed to be used with the Bambu Labs AMS unit.
PLEASE NOTE for Bambu Labs AMS users - The Old Cardboard spools will be able to be used in the AMS with the help of the ring adapters. The link to download the STL for the adaptors can be found above. You will however NOT be able to close the lid of the AMS while in use

ePLA-Metal filament's print model boasts a luster and texture which gives off a resplendent, metallic look—no additional spraying or post-polishing needed. Smooth and seamless, it is easier to detach from surfaces than other materials and displays a glossy, even finish. Crafted from PLA, ePLA-Metal is incredibly simple to print.


Metal PLA: Metal PLA offers a metallic finish with subtle layer visibility, producing a rustic, antiqued effect. No extra priming, buffing, or post-production is necessary to achieve a frosted, granular texture, perfect for capturing the look of battle-worn weaponry and historical relics.
Stable Dimensional Tolerance: Boasting an impressive dimensional tolerance, eSun ePLA-Metal renders stable prints with minimal warping, yielding a uniform feeding, superior layer bonding, and no bubbles, cracking, or deformation. Its ease of handling brings forth an exquisite surface finish, testifying to the product's high accuracy.
Tangle Free & No Plugging: Utilizing its perfect roundness and precise diameter tolerance, this 1KG 3D printer filament reel offers free-flowing and tangle-free winding with no plugging, ensuring a high success rate in printing. Melting well, it efficiently and reliably feeds through the nozzle and extruder without any clogging.
Metallic Spray-free Appearance: Adding a certain mystique and modernity, Metal PLA provides a metallic finish to your prints without needing to apply any sprays. Its perfect for creating sharp edges and rounded surfaces - all while removing the hassle of obtaining a real metal look. (Note: Metal PLA is not made of metal powder.)
Good Printability: Offering effortless peeling, a sleek, level print surface, and superior strength and durability, eSun ePLA-Metal retains all of the strengths and simplicity that comes with PLA printing, such as low shrinkage and reliable results. Recommended extrusion/nozzle temperature: 190-230℃; bed temperature: 45-60℃.
Vacuumed Sealed Packaging: Delicately proportioned and securely preserved, eSUN filament arrives in an airtight vacuum bag, containing 1KG of the material and a desiccant bag to ensure optimal storage conditions and complete protection from dust and dirt.
