Weatherproof and UV-resistant for long-lasting prints

A robust technical filament for outdoor and industrial applications

Le ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) is an improved alternative toABSoffering a better resistance to UV, weather and temperature variations. This filament is ideal for mechanical parts, external components and prototypes subjected to harsh conditions. Unlike ABS, it does not yellow and retains its properties even after long exposure to sunlight or humidity.

Why choose ASA

UV and weather resistantperfect for outdoor applications.
Excellent mechanical and thermal resistance for parts subject to high stresses.
Less warping than ABSA more stable impression.
Easy to post-process sanding, painting, assembly.
Good durabilityIt will not become brittle over time.

Applications of ASA

External parts and components : Enclosures, panels, signage.
Mechanical and industrial parts Fixings, supports, technical elements.
Functional prototypes Environmental resistance tests.
Automotive components Bodywork, ventilation grilles, exterior accessories.

When not to choose ASA

🚫 Printing requiring ease of use

  • Alternative : PLA, PETG for simpler printing.

🚫 High flexibility requirements

  • Alternative : TPU 95A for flexible and elastic parts.

🚫 Prolonged exposure to very high temperatures (>95°C)

  • Alternative : PC, PAHT-CF for better thermal resistance.

🚫 Parts requiring maximum rigidity

  • Alternative : ABS-GF, PA6-CF for greater structural strength.
