Filamentree PETG Violet Glass 1kg

Filamentree PETG Violet Glass 1kg

Filamentree PETG Violet Glass is a high-quality PETG filament with a translucent violet shade that creates a colored glass effect. It combines excellent toughness, thermal resistance, and reasonable printing ease, making it an ideal choice for both hobby enthusiasts and professionals.

The transparent violet color "Violet Glass" allows for interesting lighting effects – when backlit with LEDs or another light source, the filament shines through beautifully. It is therefore suitable not only for common functional parts but also for decorations, lighting covers, design prototypes, gaming accessories, and promotional items.

Main benefits of Filamentree PETG Violet Glass

• Durable and tough material – higher impact resistance than PLA, suitable for functional parts
• Partially transparent violet shade – colored glass effect, ideal for backlit and design models
• Good thermal resistance – compared to PLA, it withstands higher ambient temperatures better
• Low shrinkage and warping – lower risk of curling, easier printing of large models
• Good layer adhesion – strong bonds between layers for mechanically stressed parts
• Compatible with most FDM printers – standard filament diameter and common PETG printing temperatures

Recommended use

Filamentree PETG Violet Glass is suitable for a wide range of projects:

• Decorative and design models – vases, statues, decorative items
• Lighting and backlit elements – LED covers, light signs, logos
• Functional components – holders, covers, jigs, less stressed mechanical parts
• Prototyping – visually attractive prototypes with the possibility of checking internal structures thanks to translucency
• Home and workshop models – organizers, handles, small accessories

Printing properties

PETG generally combines the properties of PLA and ABS – easy printing with better toughness and thermal resistance. More transparent shades, such as Violet Glass, tend to be popular for clean surfaces and backlighting possibilities.

Recommended print settings*:

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 230–250 °C
• Bed temperature: approx. 70–90 °C
• Cooling: low to medium (depending on required appearance and layer adhesion)
• Print speed: medium – rather slower for the cleanest possible translucent surface

*Specific values may vary depending on your printer, hotend type, and bed. We always recommend printing a small test model and gradually fine-tuning the parameters.

Compatibility

Filamentree PETG Violet Glass is suitable for most FDM/FFF 3D printers that support PETG printing and allow the nozzle to be heated to approximately 240 °C and the heated bed to approximately 80 °C.

Storage

To ensure the filament maintains consistent print quality, we recommend:

• keeping it dry, ideally in a sealable bag or box with desiccant,
• not exposing it to direct sunlight and high temperatures,
• removing the filament from the printer and storing it during longer periods of inactivity.

Proper storage significantly reduces the risk of the popping effect (cracking due to moisture) and degradation of surface quality.

Summary

Filamentree PETG Violet Glass 1kg is an ideal choice for users looking for a combination of PETG mechanical resistance and an attractive transparent violet look. It allows you to print both functional parts and design models that stand out especially when backlit or in a well-lit space.
