Lay Filaments ETHY-LAY Dissolvable Support Filament 2.85mm 0.10kg

Dissolvable Support for Water-Sensitive Prints

ETHY-LAY is a dissolvable support filament from the Lay-Away series designed for dual-extrusion 3D printing. It dissolves in alcohol rather than water or D-Limonene, making it suitable for primary materials that cannot tolerate moisture exposure. The filament diameter is 2.85 mm and the spool weighs 0.10 kg. It prints at a low temperature of 165 °C without requiring a heated bed.

Replaces PVA and HIPS When Water Contact Is

This filament serves as an alternative to PVA and HIPS support materials for prints where the model material degrades or warps in water. The switch is worthwhile when your primary filament demands a dry support removal process or when a heated bed is unavailable. It is not suited for single-extrusion setups or for users who prefer water-soluble supports for convenience.

Low-Temperature Extrusion Reduces Heat Stress

Because ETHY-LAY extrudes at 165 °C, it places less thermal demand on the hotend during long support-printing sessions. The absence of a heated bed requirement simplifies printer preparation and reduces overall energy draw during extended builds. Consistent diameter control helps maintain steady flow rates across large support structures.
