Deal Details
Sold by Polymaker shipped by Amazon.

Many colors available at $13.99 including the gradients. As of this post all colors other than black or white are $13.99 of the HT-PLA. Many colors of the HT-PLA GF are also $13.99.

This is their "High temperature PLA" which can withstand higher temperatures than standard PLA. You don't need a hardened nozzle to print with it.

I asked their CS if the HT-PLA (non-GF) is AMS safe last month and this was their reply "Yup! All of our spools have hardened edges to spin great in AMS like systems!"They advertise as the GF being better for functional parts, but Imagine with the GF you wouldn't want to put in the AMS and probably want to use a hardened nozzle.

How does this compare to PLA+ (aside from the obvious)? I don't have much reason to use PETG since PLA+ seems to do the job with less bother; the only thing PETG has over PLA+ is temperature durability and maybe better structural integrity in a small number of cases.

Seems like not having the increased rigidity of PLA+ would make the HT kind of pointless.. but I guess that's why there's a GF option? At that point you've gone full circle, so... why not just save your nozzle & use PETG? lol

I'm new to 3D printing so maybe I'm missing something obvious.

One of the main selling points of this HT-PLA is that it can withstand higher temps than regular PLA. PETG can withstand a bit higher temperatures than even this PLA though. It depends a lot on a persons application for which filament they will use. While I have a lot of PETG, I use PLA more frequently than PETG as you will have better dimensional accuracy with PLA over PETG. I also don't like the finish of most PETG, but that's just a personal preference.

Also, Polymaker is from the best filament out there. I have not used their PETG though.

I've used the HT-PLA-GF and it is stiffer than standard PLA, but also very brittle. So much so that i had some concern that it would break in the feed tube. It does have a nice matte finish, as well. I haven't tried it in extreme temperature, but for some lab applications, getting to around 60-70C it didn't soften or deform.
