Fiberlogy Easy PET-G Filament Black 1.75 mm 0.85 kg

Fiberlogy Easy PET-G Filament Black 1.75 mm 0.85 kg is a high-performance 3D printing material designed to combine the mechanical strength of traditional PET-G with the user-friendly printing characteristics of PLA. This filament is engineered to minimize common printing issues such as stringing, blistering, and burning, ensuring a smooth and reliable experience for both beginners and experienced users. Its unique formulation provides excellent layer adhesion and a high-quality finish, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of FDM 3D printing projects.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this filament is its exceptional ease of use, which allows for high-quality prints without the complex setup often required by other PET-G materials. The addition of glycol enhances the material's durability, providing significant resistance to mechanical stress, chemical exposure, and atmospheric conditions. Furthermore, the filament exhibits low shrinkage and minimal flossing, ensuring that printed parts maintain their dimensional accuracy and aesthetic appeal. Being odorless during the printing process, it is also a comfortable choice for home or office environments.

Suitable for

• Functional end-use parts such as containers and holders
• Prototyping bottles and various packaging solutions
• Electronic housings, covers, and components containing diodes
• Decorative items including lamps and glass-like elements
• Fashion accessories such as rings, necklaces, and bracelets

When it may not be suitable

This material may not be the best choice for applications requiring extreme heat resistance beyond standard PET-G capabilities or for parts subject to high-impact mechanical stress where specialized engineering filaments like polycarbonate or nylon might be necessary. Additionally, users printing on bare glass or direct build plates should exercise caution due to the material's strong adhesion properties.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 1.75 mm
• Weight: 0.85 kg
• Nozzle temperature: 220-250°C
• Bed temperature: 90°C
• Printing speed: < 100 mm/s
• Fan speed: 0-25%
• Flowrate: 95-105%

How to use

To achieve optimal results, ensure the filament is dry before use by following the recommended drying conditions of 60°C for 4 hours. Load the filament into your FDM 3D printer and adjust your slicer settings to the suggested temperature ranges. Due to the high adhesion of this material, it is strongly recommended to use masking tape on the print bed rather than printing directly onto glass or the build plate surface to prevent damage to the printer bed. Fine-tune your retraction settings based on your printer type, using 2-3 mm for direct drive systems or 3-5 mm for Bowden setups.

What to consider before purchase

• Check your printer's compatibility with 1.75 mm diameter filament.
• Ensure your printer can reach a bed temperature of 90°C.
• Verify that you have masking tape available for bed preparation.
• Consider the storage environment to keep the filament dry and free from moisture.

Usage recommendations: Always perform a test print to calibrate the flow rate and retraction settings for your specific machine. Because of the strong adhesion to the build plate, avoid printing directly on glass surfaces to prevent potential damage during part removal.
