A dependable choice for makers who need tough, long-lasting prints that perform outdoors.
Store filament in a cool, dry place (15–30°C, humidity below 20%) in its vacuum-sealed bag with desiccant when not in use. If exposed to air for long periods, dry the filament before printing for best results.

Frequently Asked
Questions
How do you print with ASA filament?
ASA prints best with a heated bed and an enclosed printer to help maintain stable temperatures and reduce warping. For best results:
With the right setup, ASA produces strong, durable prints with a clean matte finish, even on larger parts.
Are ASA filament fumes toxic?
Like many high-performance filaments, ASA can release fumes during printing, especially at higher temperatures. It’s recommended to print in a well-ventilated area or use an enclosed printer with filtration to minimise exposure. Proper ventilation helps ensure a safer and more comfortable printing environment.
How do I store and dry ASA filament?
To keep ASA printing reliably, store it in a cool, dry place (15–30°C, humidity below 20%) and keep it in a sealed bag with desiccant when not in use. If the filament has absorbed moisture, drying it in a filament dryer at 80°C before printing can help restore print quality and reduce surface defects.
How does ASA compare to ABS for outdoor 3D printing?
ASA and ABS are similar in strength and heat resistance, but ASA is better suited for outdoor use. ASA offers superior UV resistance, meaning it won’t yellow or degrade as quickly when exposed to sunlight, making it a better choice for outdoor parts, signage, and long-term use.
