About this product
About PETG PETG is one of the most commonly used filaments. Its strength and durability make it an excellent choice for printing various mechanically-stressed parts, such as various holders, or clamps, for example. Due to its excellent layer-to-layer adhesion, PETG prints are ideal for indoor and outdoor waterproof applications. Furthermore, PETG is a tough material with good high-temperature resistance. The G in the acronym stands for a glycol-modified substance that is present during the manufacturing process. It modifies the properties of PET, so that it’s easier to print, less brittle, and clearer when printing with semi-transparent variants. PETG has a low thermal expansion, so even when printing big objects, and without an enclosure, it rarely lifts from the bed and warps. In addition to that, PETG is tougher and less brittle than PLA. It has a healthy amount of flex which can prevent parts from breaking under pressure. We use PETG to print parts for our printers! Printing Setup Nozzle 250 ±10 °C Heatbed 80 ±10 °C Recommended Steel Sheet Textured / Satin Before printing, learn about print surface preparation in our dedicated article and material table. Basic Attributes Good high-temperature resistance Worse details than PLA, for example Easy to print Possibility of stringing Low shrinking and warping Poor bridging characteristics High strength and durability Easier to sand than PLA (softer, less melting) New spools equipped with OpenPrintTag Prusament filaments are wound on a redesigned spool that introduces several improvements for an even better printing experience, starting in October 2025. The new spool features a simple locking mechanism that makes disassembly quick and easy, allowing effortless refills. It also stays secure during filament drying, even at higher temperatures. And with its slimmer dimensions, the spool ensures compatibility with a wide range of multi-color and multi-material printing systems. Every new Prusamen
