Convoy-Westcan PETG Filament – 1 kg AMS-Friendly Spool

Convoy-Westcan PETG Filament – 1 kg AMS-Friendly Spool

Canadian-Made • Durable Everyday Printing • Plastic AMS-Friendly Spool

Overview

Convoy-Westcan PETG is a Canadian-made 1.75 mm filament designed for durable everyday 3D printing.

PETG is a great choice when you want something tougher and more heat resistant than PLA, while still keeping the printing process fairly straightforward. It is well suited for functional parts, brackets, holders, organizers, shop-use prints, outdoor-capable parts, and general-use items that need better durability than standard PLA.

This filament is supplied on a plastic spool suitable for use in Bambu AMS systems.

Why choose Convoy-Westcan PETG

• Made in Canada
• Durable and impact resistant
• Better heat resistance than PLA
• Good layer adhesion for functional parts
• Supplied on an AMS-friendly plastic spool
• Suitable for Bambu Lab and most 1.75 mm FDM printers
• Great for brackets, mounts, jigs, fixtures, organizers, and shop-use parts
• Locally stocked by Convoy-Westcan in Winnipeg

Recommended starting settings

For Bambu Lab printers, we recommend starting with a standard Bambu Lab PETG filament profile.

A nozzle temperature around 245 °C is a good starting point for this filament. From there, you can adjust temperature, speed, cooling, or flow if needed depending on the part, colour, and finish.

For other 1.75 mm FDM printers, use these general starting settings:

• Nozzle: 245 °C starting point
• Nozzle range: 235–260 °C
• Bed: 75–90 °C
• Cooling: 30–50% after the first few layers
• Speed: 40–100 mm/s as a safe starting range
• Layer height: 0.12–0.28 mm for most prints
• Drying, if needed: 65 °C for 4–6 hours

Printing tips

• PETG should be printed dry for best results
• If you see stringing, popping, rough surfaces, or inconsistent extrusion, dry the filament before printing
• Use less cooling for stronger layer adhesion
• Use more cooling for cleaner cosmetic surfaces and sharper details
• PETG can stick strongly to some smooth build plates, so glue stick or Magigoo can be helpful as a release layer
• For Bambu Lab printers, start with a PETG profile and fine-tune only if needed

Typical use cases

• Brackets and mounts
• Jigs and fixtures
• Organizers and storage parts
• Tool holders and shop-use prints
• Functional prototypes
• RC, robotics, and hobby parts
• Outdoor-capable parts
• Parts needing more toughness than PLA

Compatibility

• Material: PETG
• Diameter: 1.75 mm
• Spool size: 1 kg
• Spool type: Plastic AMS-friendly spool
• Recommended Bambu profile: Bambu Lab PETG profile
• Recommended starting nozzle temperature: 245 °C
• Compatible with Bambu Lab printers
• Compatible with most 1.75 mm FDM 3D printers

Finish note

Some colours or finishes may print with a different surface appearance. Matte colours will have a lower-gloss finish than standard PETG colours.

What to know before buying

PETG is generally tougher and more heat resistant than PLA, but it can be more moisture-sensitive and may string if it has absorbed moisture. For best results, store unused filament sealed with desiccant and dry the spool if print quality changes.

This is not a Bambu Lab product. It is Convoy-Westcan house brand filament, made in Canada and stocked locally in Winnipeg.
