EXTRUDER MAIN PLATE

The EXTRUDER MAIN PLATE filament from Prusa is a high-quality PETG material ideal for printing precise and durable parts. PETG (polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified) combines the best properties of ABS and PLA: it offers the strength and heat resistance of ABS with easier printability and less warping like PLA. With a diameter of 1.75 mm and a weight of 1000 g, this filament is optimized for use in Prusa 3D printers. The recommended print settings are between 230 and 250 °C for the nozzle temperature and 70 and 80 °C for the heated bed temperature to ensure good adhesion and minimal deformation. PETG is chemically resistant and food-safe, making it suitable for applications in the food industry and for medical parts. Strengths include high impact resistance, transparency, and good layer adhesion. Limitations include the tendency to string and the somewhat smooth surface, which can make post-processing difficult. Overall, this filament is an excellent choice for functional prototypes, mechanical parts, and everyday use.
