ELEGOO Rapid PETG 3D Printer Filament 1.75mm White 2KG

I’ve been very impressed with the ELEGOO Rapid PETG 1.75mm Black Filament. The filament feeds smoothly and consistently, and I’ve had good results with both print quality and layer adhesion. The black color is nice and uniform, and the finished prints have a clean, professional appearance. What I particularly like is that this PETG is designed for high-speed 3D printing. I’ve been able to print faster than I normally would with standard PETG without seeing a major drop in print quality. The filament also seems to have good dimensional consistency, which helps with reliable extrusion and repeatable prints. The 1.75mm filament arrived well packaged and wound neatly on the spool, with no obvious tangles or issues during printing. I also appreciate the strength and durability of PETG compared with PLA, making it useful for functional parts, brackets, prototypes, and other projects where a little more toughness is needed. Overall, this has been a very reliable black PETG filament with good print quality, adhesion, and high-speed performance. For the price, I think it’s a great option for anyone looking for dependable PETG for everyday 3D printing.

This has definitely become my go-to petg filament. Like most folks I dry everything before it heads to my printer, but to be really honest it's not necessary with these. The other day I was in a bit of a bind in terms of finishing a very functional print, so I wasn't concerned about surface finish. As soon as these arrived I threw one into the printer and it printed as well as if I had dried them beforehand. Not that I would advocate this, but it worked out in my favor. Beyond that, the price is excellent, I've never once encountered a tangle, and they're dryness seems to be very consistent. I think I've gone through a little bit over 100 kg of this filament since I started buying it and I've never once had an issue. Regardless of the color that I pick up, it's very consistent and true to what I would expect. It is very rare for me to have a jamming or extrusion issue, the only time I can recall having any kind of problem I believe the fault was mine. This remains the first petg that I reach for regardless of what my end product is.

I am not disappointed by this, but I would instead pay the extra and get the Polymaker PETG in the future. However, if you are price sensitive, this can be dialed in to get some good results. The usual things: Spooling quality: Good. Consistent. Cardboard rolls: Wonky. Some deformation on them. Moisture out of the box: Consider it wet and will need extensive drying. Both owing to the cardboard and the fact that the homeopathic amount of silca pellets do nothing. Ease of use: No issues in AMS. No print profiles in Orca. Had to manually dial this in. I tried several defaults and was not happy with the results I got, especially with the .6mm nozzles. In the end, I spent the most effort and time getting the clear to work the best. I found that the clear works very well, has a maximum flow rate far in excess of what my printer can do. On flow rate tests, I was able to fully max out the printer's volumetric speed (~25mm3/s) which is far lower than what the product states it can do. You should spend the time calibrating the colors differently than the clear as the clear is essentially pure PETG vs the colored filaments having other additives in them that will affect print quality and speed. This will take a few hours but if you plan on using this routinely owing to the price, will pay dividends. I found that higher print temps (260-275C) and lower bed temps (about 10C lower than other PETG) achieved good bed adhesion. I used very little cooling on my prints, zero part cooling for clear. The bed adhesion was excessive IMO to the point I was worried about damaging the print bed using the standard 70C bed temps common to other TPU. 50C on the cool type plates, 60 or 65 on PEI, and 65 or 70 on the smooth PEI with glue. You will never get good advice on print settings in Amazon comments and this is no exception. But here's some settings you can use for a .6mm nozzle and then fine tune: Flow .98 Pressure advance .04 Enable pressure advance Retraction .4mm - .5mm Either disable z hop or use spiral z hop. Disable wipe whilst retracting 265C print temp Avoid crossing walls If you want the best clarity using clear, this is a whole other story and takes a good bit of patience and work: 275C print temp 125% nozzle diameter for line width. 1.01 flow ratio. Zero retraction. 10mm/s line speed (way slower) All line speeds equal (e.g. outer walls same) Either no infill or solid infill. Reduce accelerations significantly. Zero part cooling unless absolutely necessary. In other words, kind of like how you'd print TPU.

I had problems printing with this filament initially using my standard PETG profiles. The main problems were blobs that caused the initial layer to pull up from the bed or left huge holes in the layer and either very bad stringing or voids in the layers as it printed. For context, I am printing on Creality K1 Max and Ender 3 V3 Plus printers (using the same profile on both) and using Orca slicer V2.1.1 After some calibration prints and tests I ended up with these settings: Nozzle temp- 240C first layer, 235C for the rest. Bed temp 75C Flow ratio .95, Pressure advance .16 (OrcaSlicer has built-in calibration models to figure out what settings work best for you) Speeds: first layer 60mm/s, first layer fill 105mm/s outer walls 200mm/s, inner walls 300mm/s infill 250 mm/sec. After these adjustments, I really like this filament. My prints now are pretty much perfect and certainly much better than I was expecting at these speeds. I have now gone through about 3 to 4 KG each of the White, Black and Space Gray filaments and have found no problems with any of them. I have been using only Overture PETG for the last several years and have been happy with it but the volume pricing of this Elegoo made it hard to pass up. It is now my primary choice. One additional note about using these printers: It was recommended the use glue stick for bed adhesion but after trying it and getting tired of the mess, I found that adjusting the Z offset closer to the nozzle worked much better. And also to make this adjustment on the K1 you have to move the bed UP to the print head and on the Ender3 V3 you have to move the print head DOWN to the bed.

The two beige rolls we've received seem to run well within the recommended speed parameters. The bed adhesion in particular is pretty much dead on every time with no stringing, shrinkage, or adhesion issues. Parts are printed to a high tolerance and seem to work well for mechanical projects. Both rolls we've received behave the same and seem to behave similarly over time throughout the entire life cycle of the roll

Works well, with a few adjustments and some care. I've had it a week and had to run it through the filament dryer twice so far, when it stops adhering. As it's PETG, it's of course prone to stringing. I had to lower the temperature to 250C for first layer and 245C for subsequent layers, and lowered the retraction distance and speed, to reduce stringing. I'm only printing at 60 mm/s right now, but I'll definitely try to push this filament further. I'm on a mostly stock Ender 3 v1.

This filament has been such a great experience after getting retraction worked out! prints very smoothly and is able to be printed at high speeds! i currently have been printing with it at 1mm retraction (direct drive extruder) 300 mm/s 260 degrees C and have had fantastic results! supports break away easy but the parts themselves do not break! i printed a sheet roughly 3" x 4" just to see how far i could bend it without it breaking and i was actually able to fold it in half without it snapping in half! i then tried to continuously bend it back and forth to see if i could get it to tear or beak and it still wouldn't! i am extremely happy and impressed with this PETG as i have mainly only printed in PLA, but it is safe to say im probably never going back to PLA and this is going to be my go to company to get my materials from! With how bad of a name PETG has for stringing, the stringing that i have is extremely minimal, thinner than a strand of hair strings here or there but not all over the place or at every move like ive seen soooo many videos have happen with various brands of course. those little strings are easily fixed with a quick wave over the stove at low heat and then you are left with perfectly printed parts that feel even more smooth with a slightly more glossy finish! i HIGHLY recommend ELEGOO's RAPID PETG filament! after my first spool used i have been hooked and have ordered more spools in various colors and cant wait to try them! Again I am extremely satisfied and very happy with the affordability of the filament, the speed you are able to print, the strength of the prints, the finish of the prints, and the stringing is a very negligible amount as to not be concerned with! ELEGOO has earned my business! my ONLY complaint is there is a limited amount of colors currently available and i really hope to see more variety with colors which i hope include color shifting, glow in the dark, and glittery styles! Thank you ELEGOO again for making this filament so easy and quick to work with! the bigger tube object is a fully 3D printed lamp i am currently working on, printing the led tube / lamp shade piece in white! and will be adding that to the photos after it is complete! Again THANK YOU ELEGOO for making such a great filament that is able to handle higher speeds and is VERY durable!

Elegoo would be my go-to brand if it wasn't for the cardboard spools. But when it comes to their rapid PETG, I make an exception because of how unbelievably well it prints. I can print as fast as PLA, and with excellent quality every time. But I cannot bring myself to give 5 stars until they ditch the cardboard spools.

Excelente producto

Es stinkt nicht, es verheddert sich nicht, auch bei schnelle Druck bleibt die Qualität super das Grün ist wirklich satt auch nach dem Druck. Elegoo, finde ich gut.

Great stuff printed brilliantly

He estado probando este filamento PETG Rápido de ELEGOO en color blanco y la experiencia con el material en sí ha sido excelente, aunque el empaquetado me ha dado algún quebradero de cabeza. Por un lado, el rendimiento del filamento ha sido perfecto. El PETG a veces suele ser un material difícil por los hilos (stringing) o problemas de adherencia, pero esta versión rápida fluye de maravilla, se adhiere muy bien a la cama y las capas quedan perfectamente cohesionadas con un acabado muy limpio. Soporta muy bien las velocidades altas sin perder calidad ni atascar el extrusor. En cuanto a calidad del plástico, un 10. La pega ha sido el soporte. La bobina es de cartón ecológico, pero en mi caso llegó con un golpe en el borde que la deformó ligeramente. Al no estar perfectamente redonda, no giraba bien en el soporte de mi impresora 3D, lo que provocaba tirones y hacía que el extrusor tuviera que esforzarse el doble para tirar del filamento. Tuve que enderezarla un poco a mano para que rodara suelta y no arruinara la impresión. Pros: Calidad del PETG: Muy fluido, sin atascos y con un nivel de hilos (stringing) mínimo para ser PETG. Gran velocidad: Tolera perfectamente ritmos altos de impresión manteniendo la precisión dimensional. Contras: Bobina de cartón frágil: Llegó golpeada y su deformación impedía un giro fluido en el desbobinador. En resumen: El filamento PETG es de una calidad tremenda y muy fácil de imprimir, pero ELEGOO debería proteger mejor las esquinas de sus bobinas de cartón durante el transporte para evitar estos problemas de rotación.
