FIL X PETG
Fil X PETG offers easy to print quality parts. PETG's popularity is growing as an alternative to PLA when applications is needed where higer flexability and strength is needed. PETG is also more UV resistant than PLA and will not warp as easily as PLA in the heat of the sun.
PETG Is food safe and can be used for applications where in contact with food.
| CCTREE PLA filament is the new kid on the block, and is rapidly becoming known as the go-to affordable 3D filament in South Africa, which prints reliably and packs a punch when it comes to quality, smooth print finishes. If you are looking for a daily filament which offers great printing results every time without breaking the bank, then CCTREE Filament is the ideal choice for you. PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable thermoplastic which is derived from renewable organic resources such as sugarcane and corn starch.
This makes PLA Filament a surprisingly eco-friendly plastic to print with when compared to other petrochemical based filament options, and the wide range of colours and additives makes it one of the most versatile ranges too.
PLA is by far the most commonly used 3D Printer Filament in the world, partially due to its above-mentioned environmental friendliness, but mostly because it is extremely easy to use and print with as well. PLA is great for beginners who are just getting started, as it has a low shrinkage factor compared to ABS or Nylon, and due to the composition of the plastics, it doesn’t need an enclosure to print large objects - which would typically be prone to warping or layer separation.
A heated bed is not essential, but if used and set to a temperature of around 40° to 70°C, a heated build surface can go a long way in aiding print quality and bed adhesion. Commonly used Bed Adhesion Aids for PLA filament include Blue Painters tape (masking tape), cheap hairspray, Kapton Tape, PEI and BuildTak. PLA’s glass transition temperature (when it starts getting soft and malleable) is around 50°C, and is extruded at temperatures between 190° and 220°C. However, just remember that printing small or detailed parts will require a part cooling fan for optimal results.

Specifications:
| Although many people look at 3D Printing and consider it to just be for decorational purposes, the true 3D Makers amongst us will notice that there’s more to this technology, and with the right materials, it’s certainly not impossible to make high quality functional parts, and that’s what PETG Filament is all about. SunLu PETG is like a blend between ABS and PLA, but is made from Polyethylene Terephthalate (with Glycol additives), and this makes it the ideal material to use for all kinds of functional prints that need to be able to withstand real world forces. And while ABS Filament is highly regarded for its impact resistance, PETG offers a similar level of impact resistance but couples it with some good flex as well, which of course provides a boost in this regard while also giving it distinct benefits and drawbacks when compared to ABS. Furthermore, while transparent ABS is certainly not a common material to find, PETG caters well to Makers who want transparency in their prints, being transparent by nature and able to be sanded and polished for even great effect.
If you’re looking for a material that you can use to print items to withstand typical everyday forces, SunLu PETG Filament is a great option, as it can certainly take a light to moderate knock without cracking, deforming or otherwise becoming structurally unstable and unusable. This makes it ideal for items like handguards on motocross bikes, scratch plates for sleek enclosures, handles for cupboards and storage compartments, and pretty much any other applications that may be exposed to the odd bump, knock, scrape or similar type of harsh force. These characteristics, coupled with the fact that many of these spools feature a vibrant and enjoyable colour, makes it a great all-round material for pretty much anything you want to print. So, regardless of what kind of 3D Maker you are, we’re quite sure that you’ll be able to take full advantage of what SunLu PETG has to offer, and if you’re looking for a material that’s similar to ABS but easier to print – or if you just want to switch it up and test out a fresh new material with its own range of fun colours – PETG may be the ideal material for you to test out… and inevitably fall in love with.
Of course, as with any other filament brand, we encourage you to test out SunLu PETG Filament for yourself, and if you enjoy the colours, print quality and printing style of it, then take the next leap and test out other materials from the SunLu Filament Range. So far, we’ve enjoyed each and every variant that we have in stock, and we’re quite certain that you’re going to fall in love with SunLu just like we did when first sinking our teeth into their range of materials and colours.
HELPFUL TIPS FOR PRINTING WITH SUNLU PETG FILAMENT:3D Printing with the durable and slightly flexible PETG polymer is quite a unique experience, as it offers very similar characteristics to ABS, but uses very similar printing specifications to PLA. This is why many 3D Makers argue that PETG is the perfect balance between ABS and PLA polymers, offering high strength but also being relatively easy to print with compared to some of the filaments and polymers with stricter parameters. However, if you really want to get the most out of your PETG prints, and enjoy both durable and aesthetically awesome-looking results, we’ve collected following insights, which we feel are some of the most important factors, and which we feel are the most important factors to experiment with when “dialling in” your 3D Printer:
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES FOR 3D PRINTING PETG:If you’re still eager to learn more about the intricacies of 3D Printing with PETG, we’ve taken the time to collect together some of our favourite resources, guides, tutorials and discussions, and we feel that each of these offer some unique insights that can help you achieve great success with this slightly tricky but very awesome 3D Filament. Just remember, however, that each of the following resources will have their own unique take on printing PETG, and may have used different brands or colours in their tests. As such, they may understandably differ from our tips, which we created using eSUN PETG Filament, but can still offer great assistance if you’re running into troubles, or are just looking for further information over and above what we’ve provided. As such, we hope that you enjoy these as much as we do, and can gather some good tips to help you get your 3D Printer dialled in and printing strong, beautiful or otherwise impressive PETG prints:
| THE PLANET’S FRIENDLIEST 3D FILAMENT FIL X PLA Fil X PLA is the flagship product of Fil X taking the 3D printing market by storm! Through thorough testing and hours of diligence, Fil X is proud to present its 100% biodegradable PLA. PLA (Polylactic Acid) is the holy grail of polymers as it is made from organic components such as sugar cane or maize, therefore making it incredibly environmentally friendly. However, the product is quite tricky to manufacture, so many companies add process additives to the product mix making it easier to extrude, thereby ruining the biodegradability of the product. Often, when printing with contaminated PLA, there will be an odour as a result of the polymer additives in the product. Pure PLA is practically odourless. Fil X is proud to bring their PLA filament to the market. Without any additives such as masterbatch or stabilizers to compromise the compostable properties of PLA, Fil X has developed a pure and clean PLA filament that is absolutely environmentally friendly and a pleasure to print with. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
