PETG Speed Translucent Green 1kg, 1.75mm

SA Filament PETG Speed Translucent is a high-performance PETG filament designed for fast, reliable 3D printing while producing a clean, semi-transparent finish. It combines the strength and durability of PETG with optimized flow characteristics for modern high-speed 3D printers.

Ideal for functional parts, prototypes, enclosures, lighting projects, containers and decorative prints where durability and a translucent appearance are required.

Key Features

  • High-Speed Printing – Optimized for faster printing while maintaining good layer adhesion and surface quality.
  • Translucent Finish – Allows light to pass through the printed part, making it ideal for LED diffusers, lampshades and visual applications.
  • Strong & Durable – Better impact resistance and toughness than standard PLA.
  • Excellent Layer Adhesion – Produces strong, dependable parts with reduced risk of layer separation.
  • Good Chemical & Moisture Resistance – Suitable for many functional and everyday applications.
  • Low Warping – Easier to print than materials such as ABS.
  • Easy to Print – A good choice for both professional users and hobbyists.
  • 1.75 mm Filament
  • 1 kg Spool

Recommended Applications: Functional prototypes, brackets and housings, electronic enclosures, LED/light diffusers, transparent-style display parts, containers, mechanical components and decorative models.

Compatible Printers: Suitable for most 1.75 mm FDM/FFF 3D printers, including Bambu Lab A1, P1, P2, X1 and H2 series, as well as compatible Creality, Prusa and other open-filament printers.

Typical Printing Starting Point: Nozzle 230–250°C, heated bed 70–85°C, with printing speed adjusted according to the printer and model geometry.

SA Filament PETG Speed Translucent is an excellent choice for users who want the durability of PETG, faster print speeds and an attractive light-transmitting finish in one locally manufactured filament.
