Ultimaker Breakaway Material

Breakaway Material – Fast to remove while ensuring a quality finish

Ultimaker Breakaway is a support material for multi-extrusion 3D printing. Breakaway support is quick to remove and does not need further post-processing for a smooth finish on your 3D print. Designed for a hassle-free 3D printing experience, Breakaway provides good adhesion to ABS, PLA, Nylon, CPE, or CPE+.  Although it is a support material, Breakaway is used with a AA 0.4 mm print core.
