Buy PETG Filament at TM3D
Looking to buy PETG filament for strong, durable, and precise 3D prints? At TM3D Filament, you'll find high-quality PETG filament made at our own production facility in the Netherlands. Our range includes 32 different colors, available in 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm. From standard colors such as black, white, and gray to bold colors and transparent options, you'll find the right PETG filament for almost any 3D printing project.
Thanks to our in-house production, we control the extrusion process and the quality of our filament. Whether you're a hobbyist, print in 3D every day, or need filament for professional production, at TM3D you can order PETG filament directly from the manufacturer.
What is PETG Filament?
PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) is a versatile material for 3D printers that combines the ease of use of PLA with greater impact resistance and good layer adhesion. PETG is less brittle than standard PLA and generally has better temperature resistance. This makes PETG filament particularly suitable for functional parts that need to withstand everyday use and mechanical stress.
PETG also has relatively low shrinkage during printing, making it easier to work with than many technical filament types such as ABS.
Benefits of PETG Filament
-
Strong and impact-resistant: suitable for functional 3D prints and parts that need to withstand knocks and bumps.
-
Good layer adhesion: creates strong bonds between printed layers.
-
Low shrinkage: reduces the risk of warping during printing.
-
Versatile: suitable for enclosures, holders, fasteners, and technical parts.
-
Wide range of colors: available in 32 colors, including transparent PETG options.
1.75 mm and 2.85 mm PETG Filament
At TM3D, PETG filament is available in 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm. The diameter you need depends on your 3D printer. The 1.75 mm diameter is used by many printers, including those from Bambu Lab, Prusa, and Creality. Always check which filament diameter your printer supports.
In addition to standard 1 kg spools, we also offer larger PETG spools of 3 kg, 5 kg, and 10 kg. These are ideal for high-volume users, professional print businesses, and 3D print farms that want to print for longer without changing filament regularly.
PETG Printing Temperature and Settings
To get good results with PETG filament, it's important to use the right print settings. We recommend the following starting points for our PETG filament:
-
Nozzle temperature: 230–260 °C
-
Print bed temperature: 70–80 °C
-
Cooling: adjust according to the print speed and geometry of the model
-
Print surface: use a build plate suitable for PETG
The ideal settings may vary depending on the 3D printer. PETG can also absorb moisture during printing, so it's important to store the filament in a dry place. If the filament is damp, drying it can improve print quality.
PETG or PLA Filament: What's the Difference?
Deciding between PLA and PETG filament? PLA is often the easiest choice for decorative 3D prints, prototypes, and models. PETG is a good option when you need stronger, less brittle parts that can better withstand everyday use.
That's why PETG is often a good choice for functional parts, tool holders, protective covers, and enclosures. Keep in mind that PETG may require a little more attention when setting up your printer, for example to reduce stringing.
