Natural - Spectrum AquaPrint Filament - 1.75mm, 0.5kg

Spectrum AquaPrint Natural Filament 1.75mm – 0.5kg

Spectrum AquaPrint Natural is a specialized water-soluble support filament developed for complex dual-extrusion and multi-material 3D printing applications. Designed to simplify support removal, AquaPrint dissolves in cold water, allowing users to create intricate geometries, internal channels, moving assemblies, and hard-to-reach features that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to print with conventional support structures.

Unlike traditional PVA-based support materials, AquaPrint offers nearly four times higher flow performance and dissolves approximately twice as fast, helping reduce print times and post-processing effort. Its excellent adhesion to PLA, PETG, PA (Nylon), and TPU makes it an ideal support solution for a wide range of engineering, prototyping, and production workflows.

Key Features & Benefits

• Water-soluble support material for dual-extrusion printing
• Dissolves in cold water for easy support removal
• Nearly 4× higher flow rate than conventional PVA support materials
• Dissolves approximately twice as fast as PVA-based supports
• Excellent bonding to PLA, PETG, PA, and TPU
• Biodegradable material
• High structural rigidity for reliable feeding
• Suitable for Bowden and direct-drive systems
• Excellent thermal stability during long prints
• Supports complex geometries and internal structures
• Produces cleaner surface finishes on supported areas
• Simplifies post-processing for difficult models
• Compatible with AMS-equipped printers and multi-material systems

Printability and Support Performance

Spectrum AquaPrint is engineered specifically as a support filament rather than a model-building material. Its high rigidity improves filament transport and reduces feeding issues commonly associated with softer water-soluble support materials.

The material provides stable support structures throughout the printing process and exhibits excellent adhesion to a variety of commonly used model materials. Once printing is complete, supports can be dissolved in cold water, eliminating the need for manual removal in difficult-to-access locations.

This makes AquaPrint particularly valuable for:

• Complex overhangs
• Internal cavities
• Mechanical assemblies
• Interlocking parts
• Organic geometries
• Detailed engineering prototypes
• Models with inaccessible support locations

Typical Applications and Use Cases

Spectrum AquaPrint is ideal for:

• Multi-material FDM printing
• Water-soluble support structures
• Complex engineering prototypes
• Functional mechanical assemblies
• Internal channels and ducts
• Architectural models
• Medical and educational models
• Product development prototypes
• Organic and sculptural designs
• Precision manufacturing fixtures
• Aerospace and automotive prototyping

Its ability to dissolve completely allows users to create parts with significantly greater design freedom than traditional breakaway support materials.
