PETG Technical Data Sheet

May 24,2023

Product Features

Having higher toughness than PLA.

Having higher hardness than PLA.

The impact strength is more than 30 times that of standard PLA.

Elongation at break is more than 50 times that of standard PLA.

Application

Suitable for prints (such as hook) having high requirements about the hardness and strength of filaments and for that having strong heat-resistance (such as transparent lampshade).

Technical Specification

Filament Diameter: 1.75mm

Tolerance: ±0.03mm

Printing Temperature: 230°C-250°C

Heated Bed Temperature: 70-85°C

Printing Speed: 30-80mm/s

Shortcomings

PETG is relatively easy to have stringing issues and requires high-temperature printing. It also has certain requirements about the performance of printers.
