Numakers PETG-HS 1.75mm Translucent Ice Blue Glitter 1kg

For best results, dry Numakers PETG-HS at 60-65°C for 6-8 hours before printing. PETG is hygroscopic, and proper drying prevents bubbling, stringing, and poor layer adhesion, ensuring higher quality, stronger prints. Maintaining dryness during storage is also recommended.

To minimize stringing, optimize retraction settings (distance and speed), ensure proper filament drying, and fine-tune your nozzle temperature within the recommended range of 230-250°C. Slightly lower temperatures can sometimes help, as can reducing print speed.

PETG-HS (High Speed) is engineered for faster printing without compromising mechanical properties. It typically offers improved flow characteristics, reduced warping, and enhanced layer adhesion compared to standard PETG, while retaining its excellent strength, durability, and temperature resistance.

While not strictly required like with ABS, using an enclosure is beneficial for PETG-HS. It helps maintain a stable ambient temperature, reducing potential warping and improving print consistency, especially for larger models. Ensure good bed adhesion with 80-90°C bed temp.

The translucent ice blue glitter effect is achieved by incorporating fine reflective particles within the semi-transparent PETG-HS matrix. These particles scatter light, creating a sparkling, diffused glow that enhances visual depth and provides a unique aesthetic to your printed objects, especially when backlit.
