Ultimaker Breakaway Material
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 quality finish on your 3D print. Designed for a hassle-free 3D printing experience, Breakaway provides good adhesion to ABS, Nylon, PLA, Tough PLA, CPE, or CPE+.

Removing Breakaway Support
STEP 1: TEAR - Begin by removing the majority of the inner support structure, using gripping pliers to tear away the interior area.
STEP 2: PULL - Loosen the support from the model around the corners with cutting pliers. Pull the Breakaway support from the model.
STEP 3: PEEL - If a layer of support remains, find a loose edge and peel it away from the model. Remove any final traces with pliers or tweezers.
