Ultimaker PVA 2.85 Natural 750g.
Ultimaker PVA Filament Natural 2.85mm 750g is UltiMaker's water-soluble support material on a 750 g spool. It is for dual-extrusion UltiMaker S series printers that use 2.85 mm filament, printed through a BB print core.
PVA holds up overhangs and cavities during the print, then dissolves in tap water afterwards. That frees you to orient a part for strength or surface quality instead of for easy support removal. The larger spool suits support-heavy jobs and long print queues.
For UltiMaker ABS, CPE+, PC or PP, choose Breakaway support instead, as UltiMaker does not recommend PVA with them. Store the spool sealed with desiccant after each use. Please check your printer model before ordering; our team can confirm compatibility by chat.
PVA is a water-soluble support material used alongside a main material on printers that can print two materials (through an AMS, CFS or dual nozzle). After printing, the part goes in water and the supports dissolve without marks.

Typical ranges for this material; the spool label and the printer profile are the authority.
Good for parts with internal cavities, complex overhangs and print-in-place mechanisms; it pairs best with PLA and PETG.
Needs a printer that changes material mid-print, such as models with an AMS lite / AMS 2 Pro or the dual-nozzle Bambu Lab X2D and H2D.
PVA absorbs moisture faster than any other filament. Seal it with desiccant immediately after use or it will stop printing cleanly.
