What is PETG?

PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) sits perfectly between PLA and ABS on the spectrum of 3D printing materials.
If PLA is known for being easy to print but less durable, and ABS is more durable but harder to work with, PETG offers the best of both worlds — balanced strength and printability.

This makes Polymaker PolyLite PETG a reliable choice for functional parts, prototypes, and enclosures that need more toughness than PLA without the print challenges of ABS.

• Bed Temperature: 70°C – 80°C

• Print Speed: 30 – 50 mm/s

• Cooling Fan: 20% recommended for best balance

Retraction Settings:

• Direct Drive: 1mm @ 20mm/s

• Bowden (Indirect): 3mm @ 40mm/s

Drying Settings

PETG can absorb moisture, which affects print quality. For best results:

• Drying Time: 6 hours

• Always store in a dry box or resealable bag with desiccant
