FDM Thermoplastic Filament

The information presented are typical values intended for reference and comparison purposes only.
They should not be used for design specifications or quality control purposes.

2Overview
ASA (acrylonitrile styrene acrylate) FDM® filament is a broad-use commodity thermoplastic. It is similar to ABS (acrylonitrilebutadiene styrene) but exhibits better UV resistance, mechanical properties and aesthetics than ABS.

ASA is suitable for most general-purpose 3D printing applications involving prototyping, jigs and fixtures and low-volume
production parts. ASA filament is available in the most colors of any FDM material.
