Features

Durable ASA Printing Material

SA Filament ASA is an engineering-grade thermoplastic designed for strong, functional 3D printed components. Its combination of toughness, environmental resistance and dimensional performance makes it suitable for demanding indoor and outdoor applications.

Excellent UV Resistance

ASA provides excellent resistance to ultraviolet light, helping printed components maintain their appearance and mechanical performance during prolonged sunlight exposure. This makes it especially suitable for outdoor parts.

Weather-Resistant Construction

Designed for applications exposed to changing weather conditions, ASA offers resistance to sunlight, moisture and temperature variations. Its properties make it suitable for garden fixtures, exterior housings and outdoor equipment components.

Improved Heat Resistance

Compared with conventional PLA, ASA delivers improved resistance to elevated temperatures. This makes it suitable for selected applications where printed components may encounter warmer operating environments.

High Impact Strength

ASA offers excellent toughness and impact resistance, supporting the production of durable brackets, housings and mechanical components intended for regular handling and practical use.

Professional Black Finish

The deep black colour provides a clean, professional appearance suitable for automotive accessories, electronic enclosures, industrial prototypes and functional end-use parts.

Consistent 1.75mm Filament Diameter

Manufactured with a nominal diameter of 1.75mm and a tolerance of ±0.05mm, the filament supports consistent material feeding and extrusion through compatible printer hotends.

Automotive Applications

ASA is commonly used for selected automotive exterior accessories, mounting brackets, trim components and non-critical replacement parts because of its resistance to ultraviolet light and elevated temperatures.

Outdoor Electronic Enclosures

The material is suitable for producing enclosures and protective housings intended for outdoor environments. Appropriate component design, sealing and installation remain important for protecting enclosed electronics.

Functional Engineering Prototypes

SA Filament ASA supports the production of engineering prototypes, mechanical fixtures and functional test components. Its combination of toughness and environmental resistance makes it useful for testing designs under practical conditions.

Recommended 240–260°C Nozzle Temperature

The recommended extrusion temperature ranges from 240°C to 260°C, depending on the printer, nozzle and selected print speed. Proper temperature calibration helps achieve consistent extrusion and strong interlayer bonding.

Heated-Bed Printing

A heated print bed operating between 90°C and 110°C is recommended. A suitable build surface and good first-layer adhesion help minimise lifting and warping.

Printing Speeds of 40–120mm/s

The recommended printing speed ranges from 40mm/s to 120mm/s. Actual speed should be adjusted to match the printer, component geometry and desired print quality.

Enclosed Printer Compatibility

ASA performs best in a temperature-stable printing environment. An enclosed printer helps reduce drafts and uneven cooling, which can contribute to warping, cracking and layer separation.

Low Part-Cooling Requirements

For most ASA printing applications, part-cooling fans should remain switched off or operate at very low speeds. Reduced cooling helps maintain consistent temperatures and improve layer adhesion.

Convenient 1kg Filament Spool

The 1kg spool provides ample material for prototypes, outdoor components and larger functional printing projects. Its standard dimensions are suitable for compatible spool holders and filament feeding systems.

Protective Vacuum-Sealed Packaging

The filament is supplied vacuum-sealed and packaged in a cardboard box to help protect it from moisture and contamination during storage and transportation.
