3DXMAX ASA Filament

3DXMAX ASA (Acrylonitirle Styrene Acrylate) is a UV-resistant, famously weatherable polymer. Our ASA has a low-gloss matte finish which makes it the perfect filament for technical-looking prints, especially when you don’t want the high-gloss surface finish often associated with 3D printing materials like ABS, PETG, or PLA.

Benefits of 3DXMAX ASA:

• Excellent mechanical and thermal properties (Tg of 105°C)
• Highly resistant to ultra-violet radiation and sunlight
• Sturdy and rugged against the weather, ideal for an outdoor part
• Easier to print than most industrial-grade materials
• Variety of colors and beautiful, low-gloss finish to make your models pop!

ASA is the Material for Outdoor Use:

ASA’s UV-stability makes it an ideal material for outdoor applications which experience intense exposure to the sun and elements. ASA’s exceptional mechanical and thermal properties – coupled with excellent UV-stability – is why this resin is used in the Auto, Marine, and RV industries.

Typical ASA Applications Include:

Mirror Housings, Cowl Covers, Radiator Grills, & Sensor Housings

Filament Specifications:

1.75mm +/- 0.05mm in diameter

Recommended Print Settings:

• Extruder: 235-255°C
• Bed Temp: 90-110°C
• Other: Lower the bed temp down by about 10-20°C after the first few layers
• Bed Prep: Magigoo Bed Prep Adhesive and 3DXTECH Polyimide Tape work best for us.
• Heated Chamber: Recommended, a chamber helps reduce warping.
• Supports: Water soluble AquaTek X1 USM works great for complex parts.
• Drying Instructions: 80°C for 4 hours.
