Low-Temperature 3D Pen Filament NZ — PCL 40 Colours (200m), 1.75mm Value Pack

The biggest colour pack we offer — 40 shades for endless 3D pen ideas. This PCL filament refill pack gives kids the full rainbow plus pastels, neons, metallics and naturals — 40 individual 5m strands of 1.75mm low-temperature filament, ready to drop straight into most kids' 3D pens. 200m of filament in total, the best value per metre in the Happy Kid 3D pen range. Why low-temperature PCL? Most 3D printer filament (PLA, PETG, ABS) needs 180–230°C to melt. PCL melts at just 60–100°C — about the temperature of a hot cup of tea. That makes PCL the recommended filament for kids' 3D pens: the nozzle stays cooler, the filament is non-toxic, and finished pieces are smooth and bendable rather than rigid and brittle. It's also biodegradable. What's in the pack 40 individual colours — the full rainbow plus extra pastels, neons, metallics, woods and naturals 5m per colour strand — pre-cut and tied for tidy storage 200m total filament length — biggest variety pack in our 3D pen range 1.75mm diameter — the standard size for kids' low-temp 3D pens Print temperature: 60–100°C (set your pen to "PCL" or "Low Temp" mode) Why a 40-colour pack? Once kids start building 3D models, the 10- and 20-colour packs get used up fast on the popular shades — reds, blues, greens, blacks. A 40-colour pack means there's always a fresh strand of every shade available, plus the rarer in-between colours like coral, mint, lilac and ochre that finish a piece properly. It's the right pack for a whole class, a birthday gift, a school holiday project, or a kid who's been at the 3D pen for more than a few weeks. Will it fit my 3D pen? This refill works with any 1.75mm low-temperature 3D pen that has a "PCL" or "Low Temp" setting — covering the vast majority of kids' 3D pens sold in New Zealand, including Happy Kid's own 3D Printing Pen. If your pen only takes high-temperature PLA filament, this PCL refill won't melt properly — check your pen's user manual or product page for filament type. Easy for kids to use Switch your 3D pen to PCL / Low-Temp mode Wait for the heating light to turn green (usually 30–60 seconds) Push a 5m strand into the back of the pen Press the feed button and start drawing PCL flows smoothly, sets in seconds, and stays slightly bendable — so kids can pop pieces off the drawing template, fold them, and stick them together to build 3D models, decorations, jewellery and more. Safe for the craft table Non-toxic PCL (polycaprolactone) — the same material used in some medical and dental applications Low melting temperature — much cooler than standard 3D printer filament No strong fumes during drawing Biodegradable at end of life Adult supervision is still recommended — the 3D pen tip itself gets hot during use. Tips & storage Keep unused strands in their original tie-bundles to avoid tangles Store in a cool, dry place — out of direct sun If a strand softens in summer heat, pop it in the fridge for 5 minutes before loading Mix colours mid-piece by swapping strands — PCL bonds to itself instantly For a class set, pre-sort strands into 4–5 small zip bags so each table gets a balanced colour mix Specs at a glance Material PCL (polycaprolactone) Colours 40 Length per strand 5m Total length 200m Diameter 1.75mm Print temperature 60–100°C Compatibility Most 1.75mm low-temperature 3D pens Safety Non-toxic, low-temp, biodegradable
