PETG Light Grey 3D Filament
Experience an improved 3D Printer experience with the industry leading PETG Filament from TM3D. Available in diameters 1.75mm and 2.85mm , please note this when ordering.
Features of TM3D PETG Filament:
- Strength and Durability: PETG combines the best properties of PLA and ABS filament, resulting in a material that is strong and durable. It is less brittle than PLA and can withstand impact better than ABS , making it ideal for functional parts that require durability.
- Chemical resistance: PETG has good chemical resistance to acids, bases, and some solvents. This makes it suitable for applications where chemical exposure may be a factor, such as in some industrial environments or for containers containing chemicals.
- Heat resistance: PETG has higher heat resistance than PLA , making it more resistant to deformation at higher temperatures. This makes it suitable for applications that may be exposed to heat or for use in warm environments.
- Transparency and Shine: A unique feature of PETG is that it can be produced in both translucent and solid transparent shapes, making it a great choice for projects that require brightness or a glossy finish. This makes it ideal for light diffusion projects, aesthetic objects, or parts where visibility is important.
- Good Layer Adhesion: PETG is known for its excellent layer adhesion, resulting in strong and visually attractive prints. The good bond between the layers also helps reduce the risk of cracking or layer peeling that can occur with other materials
Applications:
The 3DFilament is versatile and suitable for a range of applications, including:
- Decorative objects and works of art
- Functional prototypes and parts
- Educational projects
- Architectural models
- Fashion-accessories

Frequently asked questions
Got a question?
Which filament material should I choose for my 3D printer?
The material you choose depends on the intended use and the desired properties of the end product. Some popular filament options include PLA (biodegradable and easy to print), ABS (strong and impact resistant), PETG (durable and flexible), and TPU (flexible and elastic). Consider the desired strength, flexibility, temperature resistance and special properties when making your choice.
Which filament diameter should I buy?
The filament diameter must match the specifications of your 3D printer. The most common diameters are 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm. Check your printer's manual or the specifications on the manufacturer's website to find out which diameter is suitable.
What is the difference between PLA and ABS filament?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) and ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) are both commonly used filament materials, but they have different properties. PLA is biodegradable, easy to print, less likely to warp and produces less odor during printing. ABS is stronger, more impact resistant and more resistant to higher temperatures, but it requires good ventilation due to the odor released during printing.
What is the influence of filament color on the printing result?
The filament color does not affect the printability or mechanical properties of the final product, but it can affect the aesthetic appearance. Bright colors can make small imperfections and layers more visible, while dark colors may hide them. It is mainly a matter of personal preference and the desired appearance of the printed object.
How do I store 3D filament properly?
To maintain the quality of your filament, it is important to store it properly. Store the filament in a dry and cool place, preferably in an airtight container or a sealable container with a moisture-absorbing agent, such as silica gel. Exposure to moisture can adversely affect print results, so protection against moisture is essential.
