The studio flagship, with AMS
Every Numakers material, in one place. Tap a spool to see its temperatures, how easy it is to print, what it is good for, and every colour, with out-of-stock ones crossed out. Temperatures are typical starting points; always check the label on your spool.
The easy one. Prints at low temperatures with almost no warping.
Prototypes, display models, toys, classroom projects and anything that stays indoors.
Softens at about 55°C, so not for car dashboards or hot sunlight. More brittle than PLA+ or PETG.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Tougher PLA. Just as easy, but less brittle, so better for parts that get handled.
Everyday functional prints: enclosures, brackets, organisers, robot parts and gifts.
Still a PLA: keep it away from heat. Store it dry for the cleanest prints.
Point at a colour to see its name.
High-speed PETG: strong, slightly flexible, and handles warmth and water better than PLA.
Functional parts, outdoor-ish use, clips, planters and water-facing parts, printed fast.
Strings if wet or too hot. It can bond too hard to smooth PEI: use glue stick as a release layer.
Point at a colour to see its name.
See-through, glassy PETG, plain or with glitter, that glows when light passes through.
Lamp shades, light diffusers, vases, signage and display pieces.
Clarity needs slow, hot printing with thicker walls. Dry it well to avoid bubbles.
Point at a colour to see its name.
The classic engineering plastic. Tough and heat resistant once you tame warping.
Car interior parts, tool handles, enclosures near heat, and parts you want to sand or smooth.
Warps without an enclosure and gives off fumes: print in a ventilated room, ideally an enclosed printer.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Like ABS, but it stays strong and keeps its colour in the sun.
Outdoor parts: drone and RC parts, garden fittings, signage, antenna mounts.
Same care as ABS: enclosure, ventilation, a brim for big parts.
Point at a colour to see its name.
A shiny, metallic-looking PLA that makes models look finished straight off the bed.
Vases, idols, trophies, gifts and display pieces.
Print a little slower and hotter than normal PLA. Layers bond less well, so not for strong parts.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Silk PLA with two colours side by side: the colour shifts as you walk around the print.
Vases, figurines and decor where you want a colour-shift effect without an AMS.
The effect shows best on round models printed in a single wall or with few seams.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Three colours in one strand for a rainbow, colour-shifting shine.
Show pieces, gifts, vases and festive decor.
Same care as silk PLA: slower, slightly hotter, not for strong parts.
Point at a colour to see its name.
A soft, chalky finish that hides layer lines and looks premium.
Architectural models, product prototypes, figurines and cosplay.
A little more brittle than regular PLA. Scuffs show on dark colours.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PLA with a brushed-metal look in bronze, copper, blue and green.
Statues, props, trophies and anything you want to look like cast metal.
Metallic particles can be mildly abrasive: a hardened steel nozzle is a safe choice.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Deep colours packed with glitter that sparkle like a night sky.
Decor, phone stands, cosplay and gifts with a sparkle.
Glitter can be mildly abrasive: a hardened steel nozzle is a safe choice.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PLA that charges in light and glows in the dark.
Night lights, kids' rooms, switch markers, safety markers and Halloween props.
Abrasive: use a hardened steel nozzle. Thicker walls glow brighter.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PLA filled with carbon fibre: stiff, light and with a premium matte finish.
Drone frames, jigs and fixtures, stiff brackets and parts that must not flex.
Abrasive: use a hardened steel nozzle. Slightly more brittle on impact than plain PLA.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PETG filled with carbon fibre: stiff, tough and heat resistant with a matte finish.
Functional engineering parts, RC and drone parts, brackets and tool holders.
Abrasive: use a hardened steel nozzle. Dry it before printing.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PLA with real wood fibres: looks and sands like wood.
Decor, plant pots, figurines, boxes and props that should look like carved wood.
Use a 0.6 mm nozzle if you can to avoid clogs. Do not leave it hot in the nozzle.
Point at a colour to see its name.
PLA with a speckled, stone-like finish that looks like cast concrete or granite.
Architectural models, planters, sculptures, terrain and decor with a natural stone look.
The mineral filler can be mildly abrasive: a hardened steel nozzle is a safe choice.
Point at a colour to see its name.
Type the model weight from your slicer (Bambu Studio and Orca show it after slicing) and your spool price. Material only; electricity and wear are not included.
A g print from a ₹ spool uses – of filament. That is – prints per spool, and about – of 1.75 mm PLA.
Most print problems come from a few wear parts: the nozzle, the build plate and the moving parts. A little care on a schedule saves a lot of failed prints.
Keep the build plate free of dust and fingerprints, and check the filament runs freely off the spool.
Wash the PEI plate with warm water and dish soap, dry it, and wipe burnt plastic off the nozzle tip while it is warm.
Clean the rods or rails and lubricate them as your printer's manual says. Check belt tension and loose screws.
Inspect the nozzle, PTFE tube, extruder gears and fans for wear, and replace what is worn.
Fit a hardened steel nozzle. Abrasive filaments wear out brass and stainless steel nozzles quickly.

Make prints that come out right every time, not just sometimes.
Stop downloading, start designing parts that solve your problems.
Engineering materials, multi-colour and small-batch making.
The words you will meet in every slicer and every guide, explained in one line.
Software such as Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or Cura that cuts a 3D model into layers and writes the instructions (G-code) your printer follows.
Pick what your print looks like. You get the usual causes, a step-by-step fix, and the parts that help. Most problems are solved in minutes.

Every Numakers material. Not sure? Choose "Help me choose" and tell us where the part will be used.
Every colour of the material you picked. Crossed-out colours are out of stock right now: you can still choose one and we will tell you when it is back.
Selected:
For most beginners we suggest the Bambu Lab A1 Mini, or the A1 if you want bigger prints. Both calibrate themselves and print well straight out of the box. Choose a Combo if you want multi-colour. Use the printer finder above, or message us and we will help you choose.
Yes. Build your job in the print on demand section and send it to us on WhatsApp or email with your STL, 3MF or STEP file. We check it, suggest a material and send you a quote before printing.
Yes. Send us photos, a sketch with measurements, or the broken part, and we will tell you whether we can design and print it.
Tell us the brand and model in the printer clinic form. We work on Bambu Lab printers and many other FDM printers, and we confirm whether we can help and what it will cost before any work.
We do not recommend 3D printed parts for food contact. Even with a food-grade filament, the tiny gaps between layers trap food and bacteria.
There is no minimum order. Standard shipping is a flat ₹75 and express is ₹120. Orders above ₹1,999 ship free with the coupon code FREESHIPPING.
