Indicative color reference: #72468C, attributed to Filamentcolors.xyz and not independently verified. Screens, lighting and print settings affect perceived color; compare a physical sample for color-sensitive projects.
Printing Perfect Purple Opaque PCTG PRO
Published nozzle temperature: 255–272°C. Heated bed: approximately 80°C, with a 70–90°C starting range. Adjust for your printer, build surface and part geometry.
An existing Atomic PETG PRO profile can be a starting point, but test rather than assuming every setting transfers unchanged. Tune temperature, cooling, flow and retraction for your setup.
Functional performance
Consider PCTG PRO for jigs, shop tools, enclosures and other functional parts. Match your design and printing setup to the expected loads and operating conditions. Chemical, oil and grease compatibility depends on the substance, concentration, exposure time and temperature; test a representative part for your application.
Quality and specifications
Published diameter and roundness tolerances: ±0.02 mm or better. Refer to the available variant above for diameter and spool details.
