Reliable Everyday PLA+
eSUN PLA+ Grey Filament – Clean, Neutral Colour for Versatile 3D Printing
eSUN PLA+ Grey is a versatile 1.75mm 3D printing filament made for reliable printing, consistent extrusion and clean results. Its neutral grey appearance is well suited to prototypes, architectural models, enclosures, mechanical-looking components and display pieces.
Grey is also a useful choice when shape and surface detail need to remain visually clear without a strong colour dominating the model. This makes it particularly practical for concept models and prototype evaluation.
eSUN PLA+ uses a modified PLA formulation designed for straightforward printing with useful strength and toughness. Each spool contains 1kg of 1.75mm filament for compatible FDM/FFF 3D printers.
Key Features
Why Choose eSUN PLA+ Grey?
Easy to Print
Straightforward printing makes PLA+ a practical material for prototypes, models and regular 3D printing projects.
Clean Detail
Consistent extrusion helps produce clean surfaces, defined geometry and detailed printed models.
Neutral Grey Finish
A versatile grey colour for prototypes, architectural models, enclosures and mechanical-looking components.
1kg / 1.75mm
Standard 1.75mm filament suitable for a wide range of compatible desktop FDM/FFF printers.
Neutral & Versatile
Grey for Prototypes, Models and Professional-Looking Parts
Grey is one of the most versatile colours for prototyping. Its neutral appearance keeps attention on the geometry, proportions and surface details of the printed object.
Where Does Grey Work Best?
eSUN PLA+ Grey works well for product prototypes, architectural models, electronics enclosures, mechanical-looking parts, fixtures, organisers and display models. It is also useful for models that may later be painted or used for design evaluation.
eSUN Grey Colour Reference
eSUN lists this colour as Grey with a digital colour reference of #606783.
Standard Grey is different from Concrete Grey, which eSUN lists separately. Keeping the two shades separate makes it easier to choose the intended finish.
The digital colour is a reference only. Lighting, screen settings, layer direction and surface texture can change how the physical filament appears.

Does eSUN PLA+ work with Bambu Lab 3D printers?
Yes. eSUN PLA+ is a standard 1.75mm filament and can be used with compatible Bambu Lab 3D printers.
The Generic PLA profile in Bambu Studio is an easy starting point. You can adjust the settings if needed to improve print quality or speed.
eSUN also publishes dedicated PLA+ parameters for Bambu Lab machines. For example, its published P1P PLA+ profile uses a 220°C nozzle temperature, 60°C PEI plate temperature, 0.98 flow ratio and 22mm³/s maximum volumetric speed.
These values are starting points. Ideal settings can vary with the Bambu Lab printer, build plate, nozzle size, print speed and model.
Does the eSUN PLA+ spool fit Bambu Lab AMS and AMS Lite?
eSUN PLA+ uses standard 1.75mm filament. However, automatic material-system compatibility also depends on the dimensions and construction of the specific spool supplied.
When using an AMS, AMS 2 Pro or AMS Lite, check the physical spool against the requirements of your material system. You can also use the filament from an external spool holder on compatible Bambu Lab printers.
