Hrm...
It looks like you're trying to search for a color by hex code. We don't have that feature yet, but we're working on it! In the meantime, you can search for a color by trying the Color Match page.
Getting started is easy! Try one of these three ways to use the site.
How do we find the colors?
You can create your own collections, too! Just click / tap and hold on a swatch for half a second, watch it shrink, and you'll be in collections mode! You can click on any swatch you want to; it will add or remove it from the collection you're actively building (and you can see the number of swatches you have selected on the left). Check out the video below for a quick demonstration of how it works!
You will also automatically enter this view if you are in a collection and click "Modify this collection".
Save your collections by bookmarking the page! Once created, your collections will never expire and will be accessible by the same link. Send it to someone else; they'll be able to see the wonderful colors you've picked out!
Note! These global filters will apply everywhere until you change them again or clear your cookies.
Tip: You can use the search bar to find a specific filament type or manufacturer. The below settings will only show the selected types and manufacturers and will override the search bar and the quick filters.
Dark mode is experimental and may not work perfectly. If you encounter any issues, please let us know.
The matches that we provide are found by calculating the ΔE (CIE) distance and picking the colors that have the smallest distances. For certain situations, it can be useful to know the raw distance from the target color. The closer to 0 the number is, the closer of a match the measured color of the plastic is.
Note: Enabling this will slightly increase the loading time for the site as these values are calculated.
Welcome to FilamentColors.xyz, the largest 3d printing filament library! This site lets you take a look at different filaments across manufacturers, materials, and colors, so you can get a better idea of how the colors you buy will look together.
There are no tracking scripts, ads, or anything of the type on this site and I don't save visitor information. (There are some light analytics to make sure things are working and to see where people are coming from, though.) In order to support the site, swatches on this site have a purchase link on Amazon if available; these are all Amazon Affiliate links. Some manufacturers also have affiliate links, and all are clearly marked as such. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. This doesn't cost you a dime. What I receive from this program allows me to keep the site ad-free. If you like something that you see here, please consider using one of the embedded purchase links. You can also find me on Patreon -- the link is in the footer. Cheers!
Transmission Distance (TD) values are a measure of how much light passes through the filament. This is mostly used with software like HueForge, but also gives you a good idea of how translucent your prints will be. The numbers range from 0 to 100, where 0 blocks all light and 100 is completely clear.
Note: we're working on getting this value for more filaments, but right now there is only a small portion of the library with this data.

Through donations, I can continue to add filaments to this site and keep it running. It doesn't require much -- just a few dollars every now and then -- so everything beyond what I need for the servers goes towards finding new filaments to add, either ones that I just don't have or ones that are recommended to me.
If you like this site and the service that I provide enough, I ask that you consider a small donation or perhaps subscribing to my Patreon. Everything helps, and I won't bore you with the same spiel you've likely heard a million times; just know that I appreciate the fact that you're even reading this.
