Phrozen Tough PLA Filament –Red
The Phrozen Tough PLA Filament (Red) is designed for users who want the ease of PLA printing combined with improved strength, durability, and impact resistance. Engineered to outperform standard PLA, this filament is ideal for functional prototypes, mechanical parts, and everyday prints that need to withstand more handling and stress while remaining easy to print.
With smooth extrusion, excellent layer adhesion, and a clean blue finish, Phrozen Tough PLA delivers consistent and reliable results across a wide range of FDM 3D printers.
Stronger Performance Than Standard PLA
Phrozen Tough PLA is formulated to provide greater toughness and durability compared to conventional PLA. It offers improved resistance to cracking and deformation, making it suitable for parts that require a balance of rigidity and strength without the printing complexity of ABS or Nylon.
This makes it an excellent choice for users who want functional parts while keeping print settings simple and predictable.
Consistent and Reliable Print Quality
Manufactured to strict quality standards, Phrozen Tough PLA ensures smooth, clog-free extrusion and consistent filament diameter. Excellent layer bonding results in stronger finished parts, while the clean surface finish reduces the need for post-processing.
This reliability makes it suitable for both short print runs and longer production-style prints.
Easy to Print and Widely Compatible
Phrozen Tough PLA retains the low-warp and low-odour properties of standard PLA, making it suitable for open-frame and enclosed printers alike. It is compatible with most FDM 3D printers that support 1.75 mm PLA filament and works well with standard brass nozzles.
Clean Red Finish
The vibrant Red colour delivers a professional appearance that works well for prototypes, visual models, and functional components. The material also accepts sanding, painting, and finishing if further post-processing is required.
Ideal Applications
Phrozen Tough PLA is well suited for functional prototypes, mechanical and structural parts, jigs and fixtures, brackets, workshop tools, educational projects, and general-purpose printing where additional durability is needed.

Let customers speak for us
Love this resin for printing our range of table-top gaming miniatures. It's now become our standard. Makes support removal a dream. They just melt off.
Fast friendly service. Great product. Received welcome emails, confirmations and promo coupons.
I switched to this because isopropyl was stinking up the house from the garage. This has a nice lemon smell, cleans well, doesn't make my eyes burn from the fumes and didn't get cloudy after the first use. It did kick up the VOC readings the same as isopropyl, but didn't linger the entire day when I used my air purifier. Great stuff, will buy more.
I asked a question regarding dental resins, and Luke answered spontaneously - great service!
My order was processed promptly and dispatched to arrive shortly after, well packaged. The couple of questions I had were answered in good time by Luke. I have found a great supplier here in 3D Cast and they will have my future business.
Great business to deal with. Recently after a full days work, I placed an order. 3D Cast was on the ball, as the resin I ordered was different to my previous orders, as it turned out I pushed the wrong button, this was my bugger up. But, rather than just send it, they contacted me and asked if this was right and I was able to correct it.
Great customer service, if they had not done this, I would of had resin I would not use.
For years getting Phrozens Aqua 8K resin into Australia has been frustrating, often requiring ordering from Amazon US, Luke @3D Cast has solved that for us, I’m able to order my staple resin and have it usually the next day, great pricing too, and fantastic customer service! Thanks Luke…
