Anycubic PLA Basic Grey Filament 1 kg 1.75 mm is a versatile PLA material for FDM / FFF 3D printing in a neutral grey color. The Grey shade is ideal for engineering prototypes, technical parts, housings, mockups, architectural models, figures, demonstration samples, educational projects, and printed parts intended for sanding, priming, or painting.
Grey PLA is one of the most practical colors for 3D printing because it makes model geometry, shape, bevels, relief, layer lines, and small surface imperfections easier to evaluate. This makes grey filament a strong choice for test prints, functional prototypes, post-processing workflows, and presentation samples.
Anycubic PLA Basic is designed for easy, stable, and predictable printing. The filament is neatly wound, feeds smoothly, extrudes consistently, and helps create clean model surfaces without complex printer setup.
Important: this is Grey, not Texture Grey. Grey is the classic lighter grey shade with hex code #B1B3B3, while Texture Grey is a separate darker grey shade with hex code #75787B.

Anycubic PLA Basic Grey Filament is compatible with FDM / FFF 3D printers that use 1.75 mm filament. It can be used with Anycubic, Creality, Bambu Lab, Prusa, Elegoo, Artillery, Flashforge, Raise3D, QIDI, FlyingBear, Sovol, Voxelab, and many other FDM printers.
For Bambu Lab AMS, use a suitable spool, correct loading, and standard 1.75 mm PLA filament settings.
Grey is a classic neutral grey shade with hex code #B1B3B3. It is practical for prototypes, technical parts, models for painting, and visual inspection of surface details. No. Grey is the classic lighter grey shade with hex code #B1B3B3. Texture Grey is a separate darker grey shade with hex code #75787B. Yes. PLA Basic is one of the easiest materials for beginners. It prints easily and usually does not require an enclosed chamber. Grey is suitable for prototypes, technical parts, housings, mockups, models for painting, figures, educational projects, and demonstration samples. The recommended nozzle temperature range is 190-230 โ. The recommended heated bed temperature range is 55-56 โ. Drying is recommended, especially if the spool has been open for a long time. Recommended drying condition: 45-50 โ for 6-8 h. No. The filament is supplied in 1 kg spools. If you buy 3 kg, you receive three separate 1 kg spools.What color is Grey?
