SA Filament PETG Speed Charcoal Filament 1kg, 1.75mm

SA Filament PETG High Speed – Charcoal

Overview SA Filament PETG Speed Charcoal is a next-generation PETG formulation designed for high-output environments. It combines the toughness of PETG with the ease of PLA, optimized for speeds up to 500 mm/s. With excellent impact resistance, strong layer adhesion, and low warping, it’s perfect for functional parts, rapid prototyping, and production runs. Proudly manufactured in South Africa.

Key Features

• High-Speed Printing: Reliable performance at speeds up to 500 mm/s

• Durability: Stronger than PLA, impact-resistant, and heat-resistant

• Smooth Finish: Glossy, clean surfaces with minimal layer lines

• Low Warping: Excellent bed adhesion and dimensional accuracy

• Strong Layer Bonding: Stress-resistant parts with solid interlayer adhesion

• Ease of Use: Prints as easily as PLA, minimal stringing even at high speeds

Technical Specifications

• Material: Modified PETG (high-speed formulation)

• Diameter: 1.75 mm ±0.03–0.05 mm tolerance
