Filament for MakerBot printers

This 1 kg spool of True Orange ABS plastic is made for MakerBot Replicator 1, Replicator 2X and Thing-O-Matic Stepstruder MK6+ machines. The 1.75 mm diameter filament feeds directly into the supported extruders without modification. It arrives new on an 8 in spool with a 2 in hub hole.

Makers with listed MakerBot models

Owners of the named Replicator and Thing-O-Matic printers can load this spool and print immediately. Users of other printer brands or different filament diameters cannot use this material. The amorphous melting behaviour and 230 °C nozzle temperature are tuned for these specific systems.

1.75 mm diameter spec

The single specification that decides fit is the 1.75 mm filament width required by the compatible MakerBot extruders. The spool provides 1 kg of ABS plastic with a glass temperature of 105 °C and a nozzle temperature of 230 °C. Verify your printer accepts 1.75 mm filament before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I load the 1.75 mm ABS spool onto the Replicator 2X without the filament snapping?

Mount the 8 in diameter spool on the holder so the 2 in hub hole seats fully, then feed the 1.75 mm strand straight into the extruder inlet; the step users miss is pre-heating the nozzle to 230 °C before the first pull so the amorphous ABS softens instead of cracking.

When will this 1 kg spool need replacing during regular printing?

A 1 kg spool lasts until the 2.20 lb supply is exhausted; replacement timing depends entirely on part volume and infill percentage, so weigh the spool periodically and swap when the remaining filament no longer covers the next job.

What temperature limit appears first during a long print with this True Orange ABS?

The glass transition at 105 °C (221 °F) is reached before any true melting point, so sustained bed or chamber heat above that level will cause the amorphous ABS to soften and lose dimensional accuracy first.
