What is the size of a filament spool?
What is the size of a filament spool?
The spool width depends from the material quantity, typically 40mm for 500g of material, 54mm for 700g and 68mm for 1kg.
Are all spools the same size?
No, the spools come in different sizes.
How much filament is on a 500g spool?
How Long is a Spool of Filament:
| Filament Material / Density | 500g Spool | 1KG = How Many Meters |
|---|---|---|
| PMMA: 1.18g/cm3 | 1.75mm = 176.2m 2.85mm = 66.4m | 1.75mm = 352.3m 2.85mm = 132.8m |
| CopperFill: 3.90g/cm3 | 1.75mm = 53.3m 2.85mm = 20.1m | 1.75mm = 106.6m 2.85mm = 40.2m |
