About PETG

The practical step up from PLA: tougher, more temperature- and chemical-resistant, and still printable without an enclosure. The catch is stringing and oozing — PETG likes a hotter nozzle, slower travel, and careful retraction. Mild moisture sensitivity. A common all-round choice for functional parts.

Good for
  • Functional/mechanical parts
  • Outdoor parts (better UV/weather than PLA)
  • Food-adjacent and watertight prints
  • Brackets, fixtures, enclosures
Avoid for
  • Fine detail at high speed (stringing)
  • Tight bridging without tuned cooling
