- Less warping compared to other high 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 features heat resistance up to 80°C, combined with good toughness this lends PolyLite™ PETG to more functional applications where PLA would lack the durability or heat resistance such as lighting fixtures, vibrational parts or more 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. 80°C 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 | 230°C - 240°C |
|---|---|
| Build Plate Temperature | 70°C - 80°C |
| 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 | Apply Magigoo Original or PVA glue to the build surface to improve adhesion. |
| Enclosure |
Not required but useful to protect from drafts and maintain a stable printing environment. If enclosed, on some printers we will recommended to keep a door or lid open to 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: Dual Extrusion: |
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.

Compatibility
PolyLite™ PETG has been engineered with compatibility in mind to print excellently on a wide range of 3D printers equipped with a heated bed. PolyLite™ PETG like other materials is hygroscopic. 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.
