POLYMAKER PolyLite PETG 3D Printer Filament 1.75mm 1KG (White)

High quality and heat resistant PolyLite PETG.

• High quality Polymaker PETG.
• Good mechanical strength and toughness.
• High heat resistance up to 78 HDT.
• Less warping compared to otherhigh temp materials (ABS, ASA, PC).
• Cardboard spool & packaging (made from 100% recycled cardboard)

PolyLite is a family of 3D printing filaments made with the best raw materials to deliver exceptional quality and reliability. PolyLite covers the most popular 3D printing materials to meet your everyday needs in design and prototyping. PolyLite PETG is an affordable PETG filament with balanced mechanical properties and accessible printer compatibility.

Features

• Balanced Mechanical Properties –PolyLite PETG features well balanced mechanical properties;offering good strength while outperforming regular PLA in toughness.
• Heat Resistant PolyLite PETG featuresheat resistance up to 80C, combined with good toughness this lends PolyLite PETG to morefunctional applications where PLA wouldlack the durability or heat resistance suchas lighting fixtures, vibrational parts ormore functional product design prototypes.
• Easy Sanding –PolyLite PETG is easier to post-process than regular PLA, enabling it to be sanded to a nice smooth finish.
• Excellent Compatibility –PolyLite PETG filament is compatible with a wide range of 3D printers; PETG shares many benefits of PLA such as fantastic dimensional stability with minimal warping when compared to other high temperature materials. 80C heated bed required.
• Uncompromised Quality –With Polymaker’s industry leading quality control process and rigorous in-house testing, you can rest assured that PolyLite PETG will produce beautiful, reliable and accurate printed parts.

Printing Settings

Nozzle Temperature	230C – 240C
Build Plate Temperature	70C – 80C
Build Surface Material	Works well with most build surfaces i.e Glass, BuildTak etc Rigid build plates recommended compared to magnetic flex plates.
Build Surface Treatment	ApplyMagigoo Originalor PVA glue to the build surface to improve adhesion.
Enclosure	Not required but useful to protect from drafts andmaintain a stable printing environment. If enclosed, on some printers we will recommended to keep a door or lid opento prevent environment from getting too hot.
Cooling Fan	LOW for better surface quality OFF for better strength
Printing Speed	30 mm/s – 50 mm/s
Retraction	The ideal retraction settings vary from printer to printer and depend on the hot end. The following settings have been a good starting point for many machines. Direct Drive: Retraction distance of 1mm with retraction speed of 20mm/s Bowden: Retraction distance of 3mm with retraction speed of 40mm/s
Recommended Support Material	Single Extrusion: Self-support. Dual Extrusion: PolyDissolve S1 (PVA) can sometimes support some modelsdepending on its geometry.

The above are printing recommendations based on 0.4 mm nozzle. Please note ideal printing conditions may vary depending on your 3D printer setup. For high speed 3D printers, make sure to increase your extrusion temperature in order to use higher printing speeds.

Specification

Compatibility

PolyLite PETG has been engineered with compatibility in mind to print excellently on a wide range of 3D printers equipped with aheated bed.PolyLite PETG like other materials ishygroscopic. This means that it is susceptible to absorbing moisture from the atmosphere which can subsequently affect the quality and mechanical properties of the final prints. See “Storage and Drying” details below for instructions to protect PolyLite PETG.

Of course with thousands of unique 3d printer models on the market, we can’t guarantee each filament type will work with every 3D printer.
