Dry filament is happy filament. Pro PETG, like all PETG, absorbs moisture over time.
Dry before you print
Every spool ships vacuum-sealed with desiccant, and we dry the resin before extruding it. But the filament passes through water baths during production, so a little moisture can remain. We recommend drying any brand's PETG before use.
- Drying temperature: 65°C
- Drying time: 8–12 hours
Signs it's wet
- Popping or hissing at the nozzle
- Heavy stringing
- Rough or bubbly surfaces
- Weak layers or brittle prints
Storage
Store spools in an airtight container with desiccant when they're not in use. A dry box or an AMS with fresh desiccant helps, but it doesn't replace drying a spool that has already absorbed moisture.
