Features
PCTG for evaluating clarity and functional parts
The supplier describes this PCTG as a clear modified polyester. Its brochure lists higher notched-impact and heat-deflection figures than PETG, but the test conditions are not published here. Evaluate the print process, cost and end-use requirements; the figures do not establish food-contact or all-round superiority.
Typical catalog values are not finished-part design allowables. Test method, conditioning, specimen orientation and batch acceptance limits require confirmation. Source and evidence status.

Frequently asked questions
Does PCTG need an enclosure?
Not strictly, but a 100–110 °C bed is required and an enclosure improves large flat parts.
Does the spool fit a Bambu Lab AMS?
Our 1 kg plastic spool is 200 mm outer diameter and 65 mm wide with a 54 mm hub, inside the width and diameter Bambu Lab lists for the AMS. Check the feeder label for the selected material. Wood and composite grades use the external holder, as does TPU on the full-size AMS. TPU 72D can use AMS lite.
Do I need to dry it before printing?
Popping and stringing can have several causes. Check moisture and print conditions separately. The listed drying values are supplier suggestions, not verified endpoints; confirm the grade, spool and dryer limits before heating. See the drying guide for a controlled workflow.
