Material & Compatibility Information

PCTG is a copolyester material developed to provide improved impact resistance and toughness while maintaining the straightforward printing characteristics users expect from PETG-based materials.

Compatible with most 1.75mm open-material FDM printers, including:

• Bambu Lab printers
• Prusa printers
• Creality printers
• Anycubic printers
• Elegoo printers
• Raise3D systems
• QIDI Tech printers
• FlashForge printers
• Voron-based machines
• Other compatible FDM and FFF platforms

The material typically does not require a hardened nozzle or an enclosed chamber. Its low shrinkage properties help improve dimensional consistency, especially on larger or more complex parts.
