🕑 Added 2020-12-19 21:28:24 +0000 UTCBeen sitting on testing this filament out and I have to say I’m quite happy with it.
Fusion Filaments who make epic HTPLA+ filament started making HTPET+ aka High Temp PET plus filament. It’s like higher deflection temp PETG without the G.
Why?
PETG added the G to be more flexible and easier to print at a cost of top deflection temp of 80C. HTPET+ uses other magic formulations to increase the base deflection temp to 100C. You lose some flex and minor hits to layer bonding but the prints are strong and it has no odor and I don’t have any headaches like I would printing ABS/ASA without my BOFA from printed solid.
The only negative to me is that it has to stay dry. Immediately after opening dry at 65C for about a half day and keep it dry while printing and it extrudes beautifully. It also comes in some awesome colors.
Check out Fusion Filaments when you get a chance and check out the HTPET+ if you want an alternative. I bought my roll to test and have no monetary or other stake in the game. Just peaked my interest as the last batch of HTPETG I tested from another was complete garbage and figured I’d give a shot from a company I actually like supporting.
