ERYONE ASA-CF dark gray 1kg – durable ASA with carbon fibers for outdoor use
The ERYONE ASA-CF dark gray filament is a composite material based on ASA (acrylonitrile-styrene-acrylate) reinforced with carbon fibers. Compared to standard ASA, it offers significantly higher stiffness (approx. +60 %), lower warping and even better dimensional stability, while maintaining the typical advantages of ASA for outdoor use – UV stability, resistance to weather and temperatures.
The dark gray shade combined with a fine matte surface gives prints a professional technical look that conceals layers and minor imperfections well.
Main benefits
- Reinforced with carbon fibers (ASA-CF)
Significantly higher stiffness and dimensional stability compared to standard ASA, suitable for mechanically stressed parts.
- Top resistance for outdoor use
The material is designed for long-term exposure to UV radiation, rain, frost and temperature fluctuations without significant degradation or fading.
- High thermal resistance
Parts retain their shape and strength at temperatures up to around 95 °C, which is ideal for applications in cars, near engines or other heat sources.
- Low warping, good accuracy
Compared to classic ASA, it has reduced warping tendencies, which helps achieve accurate and repeatable prints.
- Matte technical surface
Carbon fibers give the prints a luxurious matte appearance that reduces the visibility of layers and fingerprints.
- Suitable for functional and structural parts
Great for mounts, electronics enclosures, outdoor accessories, drones, RC models, jigs and tools.
Recommended use
The ERYONE ASA-CF dark gray filament is intended primarily for advanced users and technical projects, where key properties include:
- long-term resistance to UV and weather,
- higher stiffness and strength,
- dimensional accuracy and stability,
- aesthetic matte surface.
Typical applications:
- outdoor parts (sensor, camera and lighting mounts, garden elements),
- components for automotive (mounts, covers, brackets, jigs),
- drones and RC models (arms, mounts, covers),
- robust protective cases and electronics enclosures, clamps, jigs and fixtures,
- prototypes and small series of functional technical parts.
Printing recommendations
For best results we recommend:
- Filament diameter: 1,75 mm
- Nozzle temperature: 240–280 °C (start for example at 250 °C and fine-tune according to your printer)
- Bed temperature: 90–110 °C
- Print speed: 30–100 mm/s (for technical parts preferably 30–60 mm/s)
- Chamber: an enclosed build volume / heated chamber significantly reduces warping
- Build surface: PEI sheet, glass, or glue / ABS/ASA slurry for better adhesion
- Drying: recommended to dry before printing (approx. 70–80 °C / 4–6 h) for maximum surface quality
Warning: ASA, especially with carbon fiber, releases a more noticeable odor and particles – print in a well-ventilated room or with air filtration.
Printer compatibility
The ERYONE ASA-CF filament is suitable for most FDM/FFF 3D printers that:
- support printing ASA / technical materials,
- can reach a nozzle temperature of at least 250 °C,
- have a heated bed of at least 90 °C.
It is recommended to use a hardened steel nozzle or another wear-resistant material, because carbon fibers are abrasive and can quickly wear out standard brass nozzles.
Summary
ERYONE ASA-CF dark gray 1kg is an ideal choice for users looking for a combination of high stiffness, weather and UV resistance, thermal stability and an attractive matte surface. It is perfect for outdoor, automotive and general technical functional parts, where not only strength but also long-term reliability and aesthetics are important.
