When 3D printing a model with overhangs or hollow spaces, use these filaments to prevent the model from losing its shape. They support the structure during the printing and cooling process, then dissolve or snap away once the part is hardened. Use them in dual-extrusion fused filament fabrication (FFF) printers alongside your primary filament. Unlike parts with supports printed from a single filament, there’s no cutting, sanding, or polishing required. Choose a filament that prints at a similar temperature as your primary filament so they cool at the same rate and won’t warp.

Parts made with break-away filaments are designed to cleanly snap off of primary parts with your hands while the print is still warm, taking only minutes to fully remove.

Thermoplastic blend filaments work with high-temperature plastics such as PEEK and PEI.
