PETG with Tribological PropertiesThe popularization of 3D technology and the increasing specific expectations regarding print functionality bring a growing need to develop more specialized materials. Based on market needs analysis and repeated customer requests, we decided to expand our range with PETG material with tribological properties. We present Spectrum PETG/PTFE copolymer for use in sliding components and gears. As the base material, we used PETG, known for its excellent mechanical properties, enriched with 10% PTFE, commonly known as Teflon, with self-lubricating properties. Thanks to the careful selection of components and a reduced coefficient of friction, the filament maintains easy printability, interlayer adhesion, impact resistance, and thermal properties typical for PETG.
Spectrum PETG/PTFE is intended for printed components exposed to increased wear due to friction and operating temperatures up to 70"C. The filament is available in a wide range of colors.
Key features:
- 10% PTFE content - reduced coefficient of friction compared to conventional PETG - heat resistance up to 70"C - easy to print - good chemical resistance - excellent interlayer adhesion
Applications:
- functional prototypes - production of low-friction components - production of low-load gears and transmission elements - end-use parts
Filament specifications:
- filament diameter: 1.75mm/2.85mm - extrusion temperature: 230–255"C - bed temperature: 60–80"C - print speed: 30–70mm/s
