Professional Lab ASA Green 1kg
Professional filament
Professional Lab ASA Green is a high-quality ASA material in green color, designed for
professional and advanced hobby use where standard PLA or PETG is not enough. Thanks to a combination of
mechanical strength, chemical, and UV resistance, it is ideal for parts exposed to sun, rain, and higher temperatures.
Main benefits of ASA filaments
- Excellent resistance to UV radiation – models do not yellow or become brittle even during long-term outdoor use.
- High temperature resistance – compared to PLA, it does not deform in hot environments (car interiors, near motors, heat sources, etc.).
- Excellent mechanical strength and toughness – suitable for functional and structural parts that must withstand stress.
- Better weather resistance than ABS – water, humidity, and temperature changes do not have such a negative impact on ASA.
- Post-processing options – can be sanded, drilled, glued, and painted for a perfect final appearance.
Typical use of Professional Lab ASA Green
- Outdoor parts – caps, brackets, grips, garden equipment elements
- Automotive and industry – components for vehicle interiors/exteriors, sensor holders, enclosures
- Technical and functional parts – jigs, assembly fixtures, structural joints, hinges
- RC models and drones – strong and lightweight parts resistant to sun and weather
- Advertising and information boards – elements that must look good outdoors for a long time
Material properties
- Material: ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate)
- Color: Green (rich technical shade)
- Surface: rather matte, professional appearance of printed parts
- Diameter: 1,75 mm with precise tolerance for stable material flow
- Recommended chamber / cover: closed or partially closed printing space significantly reduces the risk of warping
Recommended print settings
Specific values may vary depending on the printer, but for ASA generally:
- Nozzle temperature: approx. 240–260 °C
- Bed temperature: approx. 80–100 °C
- Print speed: approximately 40–80 mm/s (less for more detailed parts)
- Cooling: low or off (0–30 %) – for better interlayer adhesion
- Bed: textured PEI, glass with a suitable adhesive agent (glue, spray, sticky sheet)
To minimize deformations (warping), it is recommended:
- printing in a closed printer or box,
- using a brim or raft for larger parts,
- a high-quality degreased and properly prepared print bed.
Advantages for professional use
- Stable dimensions and tolerances – suitable for precise technical components
- Long-term shape stability – models hold their shape even in demanding environments
- Compatibility with common FDM/FFF printers with a heated bed
Storage
ASA is less hygroscopic than, for example, nylon, but to maintain top print quality, it is recommended:
- store the filament in a closed package with desiccant,
- during long periods of inactivity, seal the spool in a zip bag or dry box.
