Product description: Fiberlogy Refill PCTG Filament 1,75 mm 0,75 kg - Pure Transparent
Filament from Fiberlogy to be placed on a reusable Masterspool spool. PCTG material belongs to the same family as PETG, however, it offers increased impact strength (approximately 90 kJ/m2), temperature resistance and clarity. It does not require a heated chamber, which allows it to be used in home printers. It offers high dimensional stability and low shrinkage prevents model cracking. This makes it an easy material to use even for people without much 3D printing experience. PCTG also withstands higher temperatures (up to 76°C) and is recyclable. The diameter of the filament is 1.75 mm. Product in Pure Transparent color, net weight 0,75 kg.
In our offer of filaments you will also find other materials and colors.
Properties of PCTG filament
- High impact strength (up to 20 times higher than PETG)
- High chemical resistance
- Suitable for contact with food - no BPA(Pure Transparent version only)
Refill Filament Series
Replacement of disposable spools, on which the filament is factory placed with reusable spools of Masterspool, is a procedure aimed at reducing the amount of plastic elements, which we can't use again. We can create reusable spools by ourselves on our printer. The most convenient way to do it is to use a ready project suggested by the producer.

3D printing with PCTG filament is widely used in industry. It is used to produce spare parts and more or less complicated functional models. Its properties make it also used in the automotive industry for printing accessories, housings, air intakes and fluid fills. Another industry is sports. PCTG material is useful for producing durable and lightweight pads. It can also be used for prototyping.
PCTG filaments are used for 3D printing in FFF/FDM technology. The typical density of the described heat shrinkable material is 1.23 g/cm³. Filament is produced by reputable company Fiberlogy.
