Know Your Filament - PETG
PET-G
PET-G is very strong and durable and virtually unbreakable. Translucent in appearance, when printed using optimal settings, produces a near “clear” print. A heated print bed is recommended when printing with PET-G to prevent warping although this material prints naturally with low warp characteristics.
KEY FEATURES:
- High transparency
- Very good mechanical properties as regards rigidity, hardness, and impact resistance
- Chemical resistant
- High dimensional accuracy
- order free printing
