PETG prints almost as easy as PLA, but has a higher temperature resistance. PETG can take close to boiling water temperature without deforming. This means that you can use it for parts in your car, for example.

Made in New Zealand, including the all-cardboard spool, the box, the bag, the label, and the instruction card.

Recommended settings:

Nozzle: 240-250°C.

Bed: 70-85°C.

 

A few things to keep in mind when you print PETG

PETG is almost as easy to print as PLA. It has low odour and doesn’t warp, but is more prone to stringing and may not give quite as perfect surface finish.

PETG parts can handle higher temperature than PLA parts. PLA softens at around 60°C, while PETG can handle almost boiling water temperature without deforming.

PETG is more sensitive to humidity than PLA. Store the spool in the plastic bag when you don’t use it, and keep the relative humidity in your printer room or printer enclosure below 45%. If the spool has been exposed to humidity, you need to dry it before you use it. Search online for DIY drying solutions.

This particular PETG appears to have very good bed adhesion. If you don’t have a magnetic steel bed or similar bendable bed, print a small part first to make sure you can remove it easily before printing something large.
