Polymaker PETG combines strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance, making it one of the most versatile materials for everyday 3D printing. It offers higher impact resistance than PLA and easier printability than ABS, with excellent clarity and surface finish. Ideal for mechanical parts, containers, and functional prototypes, PETG is a go-to choice for prints that require durability and reliability. Compatible with most 1.75mm FDM printers, it prints smoothly with minimal warping and strong inter-layer bonding—backed by Polymaker’s trusted quality.
Q: Would this be good for knee pads
A: That's a very interesting question. I assume you're asking if you made 3D printed knee pads, would this be a good material? And while my general response to questions like this is "give it a shot and let me know how it goes", I think there's a lot more to consider here. First of all, have you ever 3D printed anything? Do you have a 3D model for a knee pad? If the answer to either of these is "no" start there. If the answer is yes, then give it a shot. I suspect it would work, but I would think a flexible material like Polymaker's TPU95 would be better. Good luck.
