RS PRO 1.75mm Natural PVA 3D Printer Filament, 500g

This PolyVinyl Alcohol (PVA) filament from our high-quality own brand RS PRO offers excellent adhesive properties, high tensile strength and flexibility. It is resistant to oil as well as grease and solvents.

PVA is commonly used in the production of paper, adhesives, dissolvable packagings such as those seen in single-use detergent capsules, printing, eye drops, and textiles.

In 3D printing, it is often used as a support material for intricate printing.

Some bed surfaces may need extra help in maintaining good adhesion. Use of washable surface treatment such as 3DLAC or PVA filament dissolved in a little water and applied to the bed before printing can improve the situation drastically.

Always degrease the print surface before each print.
