Manufactured In-House By Josef Prusa
We were not satisfied with the quality of filaments on the market. So we decided to make our own! Prusa Research is the only 3D printer manufacturer with its own filament production.
Premium-Grade Materials And Thorough Testing
The whole manufacturing process is closely monitored and tested – string diameter, color consistency, and mechanical properties – to make sure that every spool is perfect.
± 0.03 mm Manufacturing Guaranteed Precision
We believe the industry standard of 0.05 mm isn’t sufficient for perfect 3D printing. Instead, we guarantee ±0.03mm precision and highly-consistent colors in our filaments.

| Recommended Steel Sheet | Textured / Satin |
Beginners tips & tricks
A hardened steel nozzle is necessary. The magnetite powder is a highly abrasive material and may damage brass nozzles.
The Prusament PETG Magnetite 40% cannot gain truly magnetic properties at home conditions. In theory, it is possible to magnetize the powder, however, this would require an extremely strong magnetic field, which would require highly specialized equipment.
You can find more in-depth printing tips in our article at blog.prusa3d.com and in our Material table.
