Prusament PETG Tungsten 75% (NFC)

Designed for Specialized Performance

Prusament PETG Tungsten 75% blends standard PETG with a high concentration of tungsten powder to create a dense and stable material suited for radiation shielding applications. The added tungsten significantly increases the material’s weight and shielding capabilities, making it suitable for parts exposed to X-ray or gamma radiation in medical, laboratory or industrial environments.

Unlike traditional lead-based solutions, tungsten provides a non-toxic and safer alternative without compromising effectiveness. The filament is produced under strict quality control, ensuring consistent diameter and reliable material properties that support predictable printing results.

Printing Characteristics and Surface Quality

Printed parts feature a distinctive metallic grey appearance with a clean, technical finish. The combination of PETG’s inherent durability and tungsten’s chemical stability results in components that resist many common chemicals and environmental influences.

Despite its high filler content, the filament maintains good dimensional accuracy and stable layer bonding when printed with the appropriate setup. This makes it well suited for custom shielding housings, protective covers and other technically demanding components.

Printing Considerations

Due to the abrasive nature of tungsten powder, a hardened steel nozzle is strongly recommended to minimize wear. Proper bed preparation is essential to ensure good adhesion and consistent results.

Prusament PETG Tungsten 75% is ideal for users who require dense, chemically resistant and technically advanced materials for functional parts rather than decorative models. It offers a unique combination of safety, performance and printability for specialized applications.
