Zortrax Z-PETG
- Chemical Family
- Glycols
Z-PETG is an industrial-grade material which offers outstanding resistance to impact of time, most acids and alcohols, and weak alkalies. Its properties include durability and tensile strength. Z-PETG is the best choice for prototypes which will undergo real crash tests, including industrial trials that involve oils and greases. Z-PETG is a blend of the popular PET material and glycol. This helped to eliminate the brittleness of models and boost their durability. Z-PETG will support your innovative ideas with its low shrinkage level, and allow you to create prototypes of complex mechanisms, automotive parts, and manufacturing tools unaffected by some chemicals.
