Galaxy Black PLA Filament for Precision 3D Printing
Getting consistent, deep black prints across multiple spools is harder than it looks. Color variation between production batches can throw off your design intent, waste material, and force reprints. Forgely's Galaxy Black PLA solves this with lot-tracked batches and hex-coded color matching—so every spool you order matches the last one, guaranteed.
Why Choose Forgely
- ±0.02mm Diameter Tolerance — Tighter than industry standard (±0.05mm). This precision reduces nozzle jams, extrusion inconsistency, and failed prints. Measured at three points per spool and logged.
- Lot-Tracked Batches — Every spool is traceable to its production batch number. Order a reprint in 3 months? We can match you to the exact same lot, ensuring color and material properties stay consistent across all your spools.
- Hex-Coded Colors — Galaxy Black PLA is color-matched to a specific hex code (#1a1a1a). This lets designers and engineers reference the exact shade in their CAD files and marketing materials, eliminating guesswork.
- Utah-Based Manufacturer — No overseas supply chain delays. Fast US shipping means your filament arrives in days, not weeks. Restocks are reliable and predictable.
- Tested with Bambu Printers — Verified compatible with X1C, P1S, A1, and AMS system. Works seamlessly in open filament mode—load Galaxy Black and print without driver conflicts.

What's the difference between Galaxy Black PLA and standard black filament?
Galaxy Black PLA is formulated with a specific pigment blend and resin ratio to achieve a consistent, deep matte black finish. More importantly, every spool is lot-tracked and hex-coded to #1a1a1a, so you get the same shade across orders and production batches. Standard black filament from overseas suppliers often varies in darkness and tone—Galaxy Black doesn't.
Why does lot-tracking matter for black PLA filament?
Black is visually sensitive. Even small shifts in pigment concentration or resin batch can make one spool look slightly different from another—visible when you're printing large multi-part assemblies or reprinting a design months later. With lot-tracking, you can reference your original purchase and request the same batch number for future orders, eliminating color drift.
Does Galaxy Black PLA work with Bambu Lab printers and the AMS system?
Yes. Galaxy Black is compatible with Bambu X1C, P1S, and A1 printers in open filament mode. The AMS system recognizes it as a standard PLA material. We recommend using Bambu's generic PLA profile as your starting point, then fine-tune for your specific part geometry. The ±0.02mm diameter tolerance ensures consistent extrusion and minimal jamming risk in multi-material prints.
What print settings do you recommend for Galaxy Black PLA?
Start with a nozzle temperature of 200–210°C and bed temperature of 60°C. Print speed can run 40–60 mm/s depending on your printer's capabilities and part detail requirements. Galaxy Black PLA has excellent layer adhesion, so supports peel away cleanly. For the best surface finish on visible faces, reduce speed to 40 mm/s and use a 0.4mm nozzle. All Forgely PLA is compatible with standard print farm settings—no special handling required.
Ready to Print with Confidence?
Stop worrying about color matching and supply chain delays. Forgely's Galaxy Black PLA filament is lot-tracked, hex-coded, and backed by ±0.02mm diameter precision. Whether you're printing one prototype or restocking a print farm, every spool delivers the same deep black, the same reliability, and the same traceability.
