Tectonic 3D PETG print temperature and settings
The settings Tectonic 3D publishes for its PETG: 220–250 °C at the nozzle and 70–90 °C on the bed. Start in the middle of the range, then adjust for your printer, speed and cooling.
Tectonic 3D's recommended nozzle range is about 5°C cooler than the typical PETG across the 45 PETG lines we track (median 230–250°C).
