Summary

  • Polymaker’s HT-PLA claims to be able to maintain its shape up to 150C, while still printing like standard PLA filament
  • A recent video by My Tech Fun puts these claims to the test, with mixed results
  • HT-PLA performs well under low-load conditions, with the base resin being mechanically identical to standard PLA
  • There is a possibility of warping and shrinkage during annealing, but this is less of an issue with the glass-fiber infused HT-PLA-GF
  • Currently, HT-PLA is out of stock, suggesting that it may be more popular than Polymaker anticipated
