**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** CE11040 · **Brand:** [Bambu Lab](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/bambu-lab-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/bambu-lab-gray-petg-translucent-filament-with-spool-1kg.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/bambu-lab-gray-petg-translucent-filament-with-spool-1kg.html.md))

Let light shine through prints that also stand up to sun, rain and knocks. Ideal for light diffusers and see-through outdoor housings.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $28.99 (inc GST) — $26.35 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- Out of stock — the product page offers email notification when it returns.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE11040:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE11040:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

A translucent PETG that makes light part of your design without giving up PETG's toughness. Light passes through the grey tint and diffuses, so lamp covers, diffusers, display cases and see-through enclosures glow softly rather than block

Translucent PLA is the easier choice for light effects, but its heat deflection temperature is 55 °C (0.45 MPa). PETG Translucent raises that to 74 °C at the same load. Choose it when parts will face sun, weather or warm electronics.

How see-through a print looks depends on its size, shape and settings. With the right print speed, nozzle temperature and infill density, the result ranges from tinted translucent to tinted transparent. Don't expect glass-like clarity.

This filament absorbs moisture readily and must be dried before use. Damp filament leaves bubbles, which stand out when light shines through a translucent print. Dry it at 65 °C for 8 hours. Keep it protected from moisture while printing and in storage, below 20% RH and sealed with desiccant.

### Core Features

- **Tune the effect** – vary layer and wall thicknesses, or blend colours, to control the balance of light and shadow in each part.
- **Built for outdoor use** – waterproof, impact-resistant and resilient under prolonged UV exposure. It also resists most oils and greases, but not acids or alkalis.
- **Cleaner printing** – Bambu Lab's optimised formula minimises stringing, clumping, nozzle sticking and leaking.
- **Minimal warping** – prints well on enclosed or open-frame printers, and parts keep their dimensions after printing.
- **AMS-ready with RFID** – compatible with all AMS series, and the AMS reads the print settings from the spool's RFID tag, so first-party filament runs on matched settings.
