UltiMaker METHOD Speciality Material Black PETG (375-0029A):
Combines the qualities of PLA and ABS filament PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) and is becoming increasingly popular as the material of choice for printing high-performance parts requiring excellent durability along with temperature, moisture, chemical resistance and flexibility. Engineers and designers use Speciality PETG to produce durable prints with speed and agility that can withstand industrial applications including functional prototypes, jigs and fixtures, and end-use parts.
UltiMaker METHOD PETG Speciality Material is designed for use with the Method 3D Printer. For best results, the material should be used with an adhesive on the build plate.
If using with the METHOD X standard Method extruders may be required, please check with us for details.
FEATURES:
- Excellent mechanical properties, including high durability and toughness: 8.1 kJ/m2 Impact Strength (ISO 179)
- Higher heat resistance than both PLA and Tough: 70C Heat Deflection Temperature (ASTM 648) Chemical resistance to acidic and alkali compounds
- Moisture Resistant: 1104 ppm moisture absorption (ISO 62)
- Prints with water-soluble PVA supports
- Final parts have good ductility and a glossy surface finish
- Easily combine the new PETG material with water-soluble PVA supports thanks to the 3D printer’s dual extruders
SPECIALTY MATERIAL USER NOTE:
Speciality Materials provide basic print performance and can require additional workflow steps to print successfully. PETG requires the application of adhesion stick to the build plate prior to printing.
STORAGE ENVIRONMENT:
Store in the included a vacuum-sealed metalized polyester bag to avoid moisture absorption from air; long-term exposure to humidity can compromise material quality and performance. Make sure the built-in desiccant is in the spool to absorb any moisture exposure during the material loading process.
