Product Guide, Usages & Technical Reference
Product Overview
Kingroon PETG Basic 1.75mm (Crystal Clear / Transparent) allows light transmission and optical refraction, making it the ultimate material for LED diffusers, light pipes, fluid sight glasses, and transparent containers.
While standard 3D printing creates microscopic air boundaries between layers that make prints translucent, tuning your slicer for 100% infill, higher temperatures, and zero cooling can produce astonishingly clear, glass-like optical objects.
Pros & Strengths
- High optical light transmission; ideal for lighting fixtures and LED diffusion
- Excellent chemical resistance; will not crack or cloud when exposed to oils, greases, or water
- Extremely strong layer bonding when printed hot and slow
- Low odor and non-toxic
Cons & Limitations
- Standard slicing produces a frosted glass effect due to internal layer interfaces
- True glass transparency requires strict calibration: high flow, zero cooling fan, 255°C nozzle, and very slow speeds (15–25 mm/s)
- Shows internal defects, bubbles, or contamination prominently
Best For & Ideal Applications
- Lighting & LED Projects: Custom lamp shades, LED channel diffusers, lit signs, and light guides.
- Fluids & Sight Windows: Coolant overflow tanks, water level indicators, and chemical reservoir caps.
- Artistic Glassware: Vases printed in spiral vase mode with a 0.8 mm nozzle for stunning clarity.
Pro Tip & Recommended Configuration
Pro Tuning Tip for Glass-Like Prints:
- Use a 0.6 mm or 0.8 mm nozzle.
- Set layer height to 0.1 mm to 0.15 mm.
- Raise hotend temperature to 250°C – 255°C.
- Turn off cooling fan completely (0%).
- Print very slowly at 15 – 20 mm/s with 102% flow rate to eliminate internal air gaps.
