Our take on the QIDI PETG Basic 1.75mm 1kg Filament

QIDI PETG Basic is a 1.75mm PETG filament sold in 1kg spools. PETG balances strength and printability: it is tougher than PLA, more forgiving than ABS, and has good chemical resistance. It suits functional parts, mechanical prototypes, and outdoor items. Compared with other PETG brands, it offers reliable layer adhesion and low warping, though it requires slower print speeds and may string. Reviewers give it high marks for consistency and ease of use.

About the QIDI PETG Basic 1.75mm 1kg Filament

QIDI PETG Basic is a 1.75 mm PETG filament sold on a 1 kg spool. It prints about as easily as PLA, with a high success rate. Its mechanical strength and impact resistance are close to those of ABS, so prints are more durable.

It gives off almost no odor while printing and has low warping. Prints have smooth, glossy surfaces and good layer adhesion. The filament has good dimensional stability, which helps model accuracy.

The filament resists water, UV light and high temperatures. It is tougher than PLA and handles heat better. It suits outdoor items such as flowerpots, birdhouses, watering cans and automotive parts, as well as outdoor toys that see short-term sun exposure and must withstand impacts and drops.

Questions and answers

What nozzle temperature should I use for QIDI PETG Basic?
Most users print it at 230–250°C. A heated bed at 70–80°C is recommended for best adhesion.
Does this filament require a heated bed?
Yes, a heated bed helps prevent warping and improves first-layer adhesion. 70–80°C works well.
Is QIDI PETG Basic prone to stringing?
It can string, especially at higher temperatures. Adjust retraction settings and print slower to minimize it.
Can I print this PETG on a stock Ender 3?
