Anycubic PLA Silk Dual Filament – Black/Green (1.75mm, 1kg)
Two colours in one strand | Shifts between black and green as you move around it | Lustrous silk finish | No colour changes or extra hardware needed | ACE compatible
Two colours, one spool, zero effort. Anycubic PLA Silk Dual combines deep black and bold green side by side in a single strand of silk PLA. As you walk around a print, it shows black from one angle and green from another, with a glossy silk sheen throughout. You get a striking two-tone effect from any ordinary single-nozzle printer.
Bold, edgy two-tone. Black and green make a high-impact pairing with a toxic, sci-fi feel. It’s ideal for dragons and reptiles, aliens and monsters, Halloween décor, gaming setups and RGB-style desk accessories, and cyberpunk props. Each print looks different depending on where you stand.
Silky shine straight off the bed. The silk finish gives a premium, almost metallic sheen, with no painting or post-processing needed.
Tune the shine. Print hotter or slower for a high-gloss finish, or cooler and faster for a softer lustre.
Easy to print. It works on any 1.75mm FDM printer with a 0.4mm or larger nozzle, with no multicolour system needed. It resists snapping in the feed path, and on compatible Anycubic printers, spool identification sets the print settings for you automatically.

Tips for best results
-
Print in vase mode or with a single outer wall for the strongest two-colour effect.
- Rounded models such as vases, figures and spheres show off the colour shift best.
- Print hotter or slower for more gloss, and cooler or faster for a softer sheen.
- Dry the spool at 55–65°C for 6–8 hours if it’s been open for a while.
- PLA softens at around 53°C, so keep prints out of hot cars and direct sun.
