MakerBot METHOD X RapidRinse and ABS-R Filament Bundle (3 ABS-R, 1 RapidRinse)
Students can print dimensionally accurate ABS parts with the ease of PLA. These filaments provide improved performance and reliability over normal ABS filaments and they're exclusively compatible with RapidRinse—a proprietary tap-water soluble support material that dissolves even faster.
Compatible with:
Get to Know:
- ABS, finally as easy as PLA
- ABS is one of the most in-demand, yet difficult materials for 3D printing. The METHOD X patented VECT™ 110 technology combined with proprietary RapidRinse™ support delivers incomparable ABS parts with unprecedented ease.
- Tap water-soluble
- Forget the cumbersome wash tanks and chemicals—RapidRinse™ dissolves in pure tap water, so it’s easy to use in just about any environment.
- Dissolves in minutes
- You don’t have time to wait around while your print dissolves. The RapidRinse™ materials are engineered to dissolve faster than PVA and competitive high-temp dissolvable support materials. There’s really nothing that comes close.
Please note: This is a moisture-sensitive material. The spools are shipped in resealable mylar bags, which are impermeable to light and moisture and help protect the filament from potential damage. Within the spool, there is also desiccant to keep the environment moisture-free. A moisture-sensitive material will run the risk of a high moisture uptake if stored improperly, which can result in decreased print quality and damage to the extruder. Please reference this guide from the MakerBot team for working with moisture-sensitive materials.

SPOOL TYPE
Smart Spool™ provides valuable information, including material type, color, and amount remaining via an RFID chip directly to MakerBot Print, while a desiccant in the spool maintains a low moisture level inside the drawer bay.
DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT
Spool Diameter: 21.8 cm (8.6 in)
Spool Width: 4.2 cm (1.65 in)
Material Diameter: 1.75 mm
Shipping Weight: 1.1 kg (2.4 lb)
Net Weight: 0.65 kg (1.43 lb)
STORAGE ENVIRONMENT
Store in the included vacuum-sealed metalized polyester bag to avoid moisture absorption from air; long-term exposure to humidity can compromise material quality and performance. Make sure the built-in desiccant is in the spool to absorb any moisture exposure during the material loading process.
