Filament PM printing string filament 175 ASA natural 2 kg

Filament PM printing string filament 175 ASA natur 2 kg — durable filament for outdoor use

For demanding applications where weather resistance is key, ASA (acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylate) filament is the ideal choice. This material similar to ABS stands out for its high UV stability, which ensures a long service life even in outdoor use. It is also resistant to water, wear and impact, which makes it ideal for prototyping, the automotive and mechanical engineering industries. The possibility of easy subsequent modifications, such as grinding, smoothing with acetone vapors or bonding with acetone, adds to its versatility.

Properties of ASA material for outdoor and industrial use

ASA filament combines mechanical resistance with excellent stability to UV radiation, which makes it a suitable material for outdoor applications. It is designed to withstand demanding conditions such as humidity, sunlight and mechanical stress. Due to these properties, it is often used in the production of prototypes, structural parts and components in the automotive and mechanical engineering industries.

Post-processing options

One of the key advantages of this filament is its easy processing. Prints can be sanded dry or wet using sandpaper, allowing for precise surface finishing. In addition, they can be smoothed with acetone vapor for a smooth appearance or glued with acetone, which adds flexibility during assembly and repairs.

Technical data for printing

To achieve optimal results, it is important to set up the printer correctly:

• Nozzle temperature: 240-260 °C
• Heated bed: 100-110 °C

Printing profiles for various printers are available for download, for example for Průša slicer MK3 and Bambu Lab printers, which makes calibration easier and ensures consistent results.
