Frequently Asked Questions
How many meters of PVA Support filament are in a 1kg spool?
A standard 1,000g (1 kg) spool of 1.75mm PVA Support filament (density 1.23 g/cm³) contains approximately 338.01 meters (~1109 feet). For 2.85mm diameter, a 1 kg spool yields approximately 127.44 meters.
What is the density of PVA Support 3D printer filament?
PVA Support has an average density of 1.23 g/cm³. Heavier composite filaments yield fewer meters per kilogram than lightweight unfilled polymers.
How do I calculate remaining PVA Support on a used spool?
Weigh your spool on a digital scale in grams, subtract the tare weight of the empty spool (typically 130g–240g depending on brand), and enter the net filament weight into the MakersMetric calculator above to find the exact remaining meters.
What print temperatures are recommended for PVA Support?
Recommended nozzle extrusion temperature is 190-215 °C, with a recommended print bed temperature of 45-60 °C.
