Adhesiveness category

A group number the prime tower uses to keep apart filaments that don't stick to each other.

How it works

The prime tower is built in sectors. Filaments in the same category share a sector, because they bond well with each other; those in different categories go in separate sectors, so the tower doesn't come apart inside.

Each filament's profile sets it; PLAs share a category.

When to change it

  • Don't touch it: the profile sets it.
  • It only matters if you print with several filaments and a prime tower.
