Pro PCTG, Metallic Silver, 1.75mm

3D-Fuel Pro PCTG is like PETG but better in many ways. It is tougher (up to 20x tougher than PETG), more chemically resistant, and has even greater clarity than PETG. Pro PCTG is an easy-to-use material with a lower moisture absorption rate than PETG and doesn't require an enclosure - use it just like PETG. The broad color selection and ease of printing make it an ideal choice for printing in a multi-color 3D printing system like the Bambu Lab AMS. Key Features: A perfect starting point for fixtures and functional prints Low cost Easy to print, machine, and finish Excellent surface finish Prints in open air - no enclosure required Great filament for prosthetics and orthotics Unaffected by humidity Strong enough for lightly loaded fixtures Colors available for color coding Higher impact strength than PETG Made in the U.S.A. Applications Include: Handheld tools Gauges Location fixtures General assembly fixtures Check sockets for prosthetics Print Profiles Print profiles for Pro PCTG on the Bambu Lab printers are available here. Bambu AMS Compatibility Since October 2023, the 3D-Fuel Standard PLA+ has been manufactured using an AMS-compliant spool (more info on our spool sizes and weights). Since it takes time for some colors to move through our warehouse inventory, you may receive an older spool type. This is still compatible with the AMS, but you must leave the lid open a few mm.

We have complete control over the manufacturing process and can ensure consistent quality for every spool. Learn more about 3D-Fuel filament quality. Diameter Tolerance: Variable 3D filament diameters can cause significant problems in your 3D printer. We use a multi-axis laser measurement system to control our filament diameter and ovality in real time during production. Packing Information: A full 1kg (2.2 lbs) of Pro PCTG plastic filament arrives on a durable plastic reel compatible with the Bambu Lab AMS. The reel is vacuum-sealed with a desiccant packet to keep out moisture. Test Printing:  The 3D-Fuel test lab features multiple brands of 3D printers, including Bambu Lab, Creality3D, Prusa, Raise3D, MakerBot, LulzBot, FlashForge, and more. We use what we manufacture in our 3D printing operations to ensure that our filament provides the best quality possible.
