PETG is a high-performance polymer known for its wear resistance and durability. In the sport of rowing, these characteristics can be translated into several advantages:

  1. Durability: Equipment used in rowing sports needs to withstand repeated impacts and stress. The high durability of PETG means that parts made from this material can last longer, reducing the frequency of damage and replacement. This allows athletes to focus on training and competition rather than frequent repairs or equipment changes.
  2. Lightweight: PETG filament can help manufacture lighter rowing parts, such as oar handles or other accessories. Lightweight equipment can reduce the burden on athletes, improving their mobility and flexibility, thereby achieving better performance in competitions.
  3. Structural Stability: PETG filament can be used to 3D print rowing accessories that are structurally stable and strong. For example, some professional fitness brands use PETG materials to reinforce the design for structural stability, preventing handle bending that could affect the wrists.
  4. Scientific Structural Design: PETG filament can be used to print designs that are more in line with ergonomics and sports mechanics, such as the pedal and handle design of rowing machines. This can increase the explosive power during the movement, improving the efficiency of rowing exercises.
  5. Psychological and Physiological Support: Rowing equipment made from PETG materials, due to their durability and stability, can provide psychological support for athletes, giving them more confidence in training and competitions. At the same time, the performance improvement of the equipment also helps to enhance the athletes' physiological performance, such as enhancing cardiorespiratory function and strength by improving rowing efficiency.
Overall, the application of PETG filament in rowing sports can indirectly improve athletes' training effects and competition results by enhancing the performance and durability of equipment. Of course, this is only from the perspective of material science; actual applications also need to be combined with the athletes' training plans and technical levels.
