Clearance – ASA 3D Printer Filament – 1.75mm

ABS is a good filament, but it has one major downfall – it is susceptible to the elements. This is where Ooznest Materials ASA 3D Printer filament shines. ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) uses acrylate rubber instead of butadiene rubber in ABS. Due to this substitution, ASA is more weather and UV tolerant.

WHAT MAKES ASA DIFFERENT?

Ooznest Materials ASA 3D Printer filament is very resistance to weathering and chemical degradation. ASA is widely used in outdoor applications, it will hold its look, feel and strength throughout its lifetime. ABS will discolour and crack after pro-longed exposure to the environment. ASA is also resilient to salts, acids, waters and oils, making it a great all rounder when used in practical applications. As a material ASA could be considered to be overlooked, the downfalls of using ASA 3D Printer Filament are minimal. Its mechanical properties lie right in the middle between PLA and ABS. It is slightly weaker than ABS, but is more flexible, and is more impact resistance than PLA. If you need to make an object to go outside, then Ooznest Materials ASA is your go to material. Printing Ooznest Materials ASA is very similar to printing ABS, a high print temperature 245-255°C, and bed temperature 100°C is needed. If you proficient in printing ABS then ASA 3D Printer filament shouldn’t give you any trouble at all.
