Marble PETG
Filament guide.
WJ Marble PETG blends a mineral-style filler into a PETG base, giving durable, impact-resistant parts a natural marble-like appearance with contrasting flecks. The mineral content is mildly abrasive, so a hardened nozzle is recommended for sustained use.

Technical data sheet
Overview & applications.
WJ Marble PETG blends a mineral-style filler into a PETG base, giving durable, impact-resistant parts a natural marble-like appearance with contrasting flecks. The mineral content is mildly abrasive, so a hardened nozzle is recommended for sustained use.
Typical applications
durable decorative vases and homeware, tabletop pieces, and any impact-resistant print wanting a stone- inspired finish.

Data source & test conditions.
| Parameter | Unit | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Nozzle temperature | °C | 240 |
| Bed temperature | °C | 75 |
| Printing speed | mm/s | 70 |
| Infill density | % | 100 |

| Specimen conditioning / annealing | °C / h | 23 °C / 50 % RH for 24 h (ISO 291) |
| Topic | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Typical, not minimum | The property tables describe specimens printed exactly as stated in Section 5. They describe the material, not a machined or moulded part. |
| Orientation matters | Values marked X·Y apply to specimens printed flat on the build plate. Z values are measured on parts printed standing up and are typically lower than X·Y. Design for the direction that carries the load. |
| Batch variation | Values carry a ± range where extrusion, pigment and ambient humidity vary between batches; colour masterbatch can shift impact strength noticeably. Where no deviation is given, the value is a single representative test. |
| Not a certificate | This sheet is not an inspection certificate, a Declaration of Conformity, or a certificate of analysis. Batch-specific CoA, RoHS / REACH declarations and safety data sheets are issued separately on request. |
Technical data sheet
Storage, handling & safety.
| Topic | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Storage before use | Sealed bag, 15 – 25 °C, below 50 % RH, away from direct sunlight and UV, away from ignition sources. Shelf life 24 months. |
| Storage after opening | Reseal with the supplied desiccant. In humid climates print within 4 weeks of opening; the spool can be re-dried at 45 – 55 °C for 4 – 6 h. |
| Symptoms of moisture | Bubbling or popping sounds at the nozzle, rough surface, stringing, weak layer bonding, inconsistent extrusion. Dry the spool before changing settings. |
| Handling | PLA filament is brittle when overloaded. Keep the spool on its holder and avoid sharp bends at the extruder inlet, especially on direct-drive toolheads. |
| Ventilation | Printing releases trace lactide vapour with a faintly sweet odour. Print in a ventilated area and avoid breathing the fumes directly. Not for use in enclosed occupied spaces without extraction. |
| Fire and disposal | PLA is a combustible solid. Keep away from open flame and hot surfaces above 250 °C. Spool, bag and carton are recyclable; offcuts can go to industrial composting per EN 13432. |
| Personal protection | No special protection required for normal use. Wear gloves when handling hot parts and safety glasses when cutting filament. |
