Need a weather resistant, UV-stable version of ABS?
Our ASA filament is the answer (full name: Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate). It has excellent strength, with a great all-round weather and chemical resistance. This is fast becoming a popular 3d printing material for outdoor applications.
Whether you’re printing for business, education or just making your next trinket - you need a 3D printer
filament you can rely on, something that won’t ruin your prints half way through with blockages or jams. Something that produces the finished article in excellent detail, with no stringing or blobbing. rigid.ink’s ASA printer filament does exactly that. We’ll even swap or refund it up to 60 days after purchase if you
have problems, or simply find it’s just not for you – who else does that?
Free from contaminants and hidden foreign objects; our resins are extremely smooth and predictable to print with. Layer adhesion is unmatched, meaning your ASA prints will be strong and long lasting, every time.
Often overlooked by others, we’re extremely strict on our dimension tolerances. If you’re getting fluctuations in diameter, even by small margins, your prints will have varying thickness areas, which could turn into fault and high stress points. That’s why we pride ourselves on an industry leading 0.03mm+/- either side of the 1.75mm we promise on all rigid.ink filaments (except flexi filaments). Say goodbye to extruder jams, and hello to smooth, strong prints.
Save time and wasted resources with a 3D printer filament you can rely on.
Like the colours you see in the photos? That’s the colour you’ll receive, and the colour your prints will finish like. Often some filaments have poor pigments, that look washed out or even loose saturation during the heated printing process – leaving washed out colours. Our natural ASA comes in a slightly off-white colour, but won’t yellow over time, even in sunlight.
Just a side note, as with all ASA filaments, please turn your printer’s cooling fan low and ensure it’s not printing in a draughty environment. ASA needs to cool slowly, like ABS to prevent warping.
Advantages printing with our ASA:
- Unmatched long lasting weather resistance
- Very tough, considered tougher than ABS
- Excellent range of strong colours
- Won’t yellow over time, and excellent chemical resistance
