4 x PETG 3D Filament 1.75mm Transparent Pink - 1KG

PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a thermoplastic polymer used for drink bottles or sailcloths. Mixed with glycol (hence the “G”) exhibits good 3D printing features. PETG filament is resistant to high temperatures and water, presents stable dimensions, no shrinkage, and good electrical properties. PETG combines ABS durability and PLA printability, and it comes as no surprise that it’s frequently chosen by professionals seeking a reliable filament for their projects.

 

Features

• Good toughness, high hardness, impact strength is 30 times more than PLA, and the elongation at break of more than 50 times PLA.
• Compatible printers must have heating device, can print models have strictrequirements of toughness and and strength, such as: pendant. Also can print strongly heated-resistance and transparent models, such as: lampshade.

Reel diameter	200mm
Reel hub diameter	60mm
Reel width	65mm

 

Best printing practices

•     PETG has a higher melting temperature  than PLA so we recommend setting your hot end temperature between 220 and 250°C.
•     ALWAYS use a fan with PETG as it tends to cool the filament in the hot end and help with retractions.
•     Keep your retraction speed slow at 40mm/s or less.
•     Apply one coat of Wolfbite by painting on cold glass with long strokes.Wolfbite is a solution specially engineered to bond PETG and ABS plastic parts directly to a heated glass 3D printing surface without lifting. Once the 3D printed parts have cooled, they will dismount from the printing surface with minimal effort, leaving a clean and smooth bottom surface.
