Compared with PLA, PETG is generally better suited to parts that may experience repeated handling, impacts, vibration, moisture, or moderate heat. This makes it a useful material for functional prototypes, workshop accessories, machine components, protective covers, brackets, enclosures, and other parts that need to perform beyond simple visual modelling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe material offers a useful balance between strength and flexibility.
