ASA Filament

Discover the robust and versatile performance of ASA filament from 3D Universe. ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) filament is praised for its strength, UV resistance, and high thermal stability, making it an ideal choice for outdoor applications or projects requiring added durability.

Our selection of ASA 3D printer filament is curated for products that provide exceptional print quality and reliability. This material is perfect for creating items that face environmental stress, like automotive parts, outdoor signage, and sports equipment. ASA 3D filament's enhanced weather resistance ensures that your prints maintain their color and structural integrity even under prolonged exposure to sunlight and inclement weather.

ASA printing is also user-friendly. It offers similar printability to ABS filament, with the added benefit of significantly less warping. The filament is compatible with a wide range of 3D printers, ensuring smooth and consistent extrusion for intricate designs and detailed finishes.


Frequently Asked Questions

What Printer Settings Are Recommended for ASA Filament?

For optimal results with ASA filament, it's recommended to use a heated bed temperature of around 80-100°C and an extruder temperature of about 240-260°C. A closed print chamber and Magigoo Adhesive can also help in minimizing warping and unpleasant fumes from the filament.

Can ASA Filament Be Used for Functional Prototypes?

Definitely. ASA filament is ideal for functional prototypes due to its robustness and stability in various conditions. Its excellent UV and weather resistance make it suitable for products exposed to harsh outdoor environments. ASA's durability ensures prototypes maintain structural integrity and dimensional accuracy, making it a top choice for practical, real-world testing.

How Does ASA Compare to ABS Filament?

While ASA and ABS share many properties such as high strength and durability, ASA offers superior UV resistance and less susceptibility to environmental conditions, making it better for outdoor use.
