Applications for breakaway support include simpler designs with easy access for removal, and parts made with thermoplastics that use this type of support exclusively.
Soluble support is most effective for parts with features that are hard to access by hand and for multi-piece assemblies with small clearances between moving parts. Support in these areas is easily washed away when the part is submerged in the dissolution tank.
