eSUN empty spool weight

Use these sourced tare weights to estimate how much filament remains on a eSUN spool. Spool designs and production batches can change, so weighing your own empty spool is still the most precise method.

How to calculate filament remaining

Weigh the loaded spool, then subtract the empty-spool tare weight. For example, a loaded spool weighing 720 g with a 220 g empty spool has about 500 g of filament remaining.

Track every eSUN spool you own

Makeratory keeps each spool’s remaining weight, material, color, location, and cost together so you can see what is available before planning the next print.
