Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG)
Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) is a durable and transparent thermoplastic used in 3D printing. Combining strength with easy printability, it offers chemical resistance and low warping. Ideal for functional prototypes and mechanical parts, PETG strikes a balance between the properties of ABS and PLA.
Applications
Functional Prototypes
PETG is commonly used in 3D printing to produce durable and functional prototypes due to its strength, chemical resistance, and ease of printing.
Product Design & Prototyping
PETG is suitable for manufacturing robust mechanical parts in 3D printing, where its strength and resistance to chemicals provide durability under various conditions.
Translucent Print
PETG's transparency makes it a preferred choice for creating translucent or clear 3D prints, suitable for applications such as lighting fixtures, display cases, or artistic projects.
Samples
Cat/Dog Litter Scooper
Introducing the Seashore Sifter, the ultimate tool for cat owners and beach enthusiasts! This innovative design combines the functionality of a cat litter scoop with the versatility of a beach cleaning tool. With its integrated, detachable deep shovel holder, it makes scooping cat litter a breeze. It is recommended to print this component using a flexible filament like PETG to allow for some flexibility.
Decorative Pendant Lamp
Everything was printed on a Prusa MK3S with PETG filament. You can print it without support. It is best to use it with LED bulbs to avoid heat related problems.
Propeller Guard for EMAX TinyHawk 2 Freestyle FPV Drone
Designed and tested many variances with corrections of this propeller guard until this version. Printed it from PETG filament which is a bit more flexible and heat resistant compared to PLA.
