2 things to know about this spool

Fit a hardened-steel nozzle
What is mixed into this filament — fiber or glow pigment — grinds down a soft brass nozzle fast. A hardened-steel one stands up to it.
Needs a high-temperature hotend
It runs hotter than everyday filaments. Check your printer can reach its nozzle temperature before you buy.

New here? Nozzle = printing temperature in your slicer, bed = build plate. Start at the big number.

Nozzle is the hot-end temperature: enter it as the printing temperature in your slicer. Start at the big number; the range is the safe window to tune within.
Bed is the heated build plate: your slicer calls it bed temperature. It helps prints stick.
OFD is the Open Filament Database, the community-maintained source this spec sheet comes from.
