While our standard stock includes PLA filament, we offer ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) filament on special order for projects that require enhanced strength and durability. ABS is a versatile material known for its robustness and impact resistance, making it ideal for demanding applications.
ABS Filament Overview
Material: ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)
Diameter: 1.75mm
Printing Temperature: Typically 220-250°C
Bed Temperature: Typically 80-110°C (heated bed highly recommended)
Features:
Strength and Durability: ABS is renowned for its high strength and resistance to impact, making it suitable for functional parts that need to endure stress and rough handling.
Heat Resistance: Provides better heat resistance compared to PLA, which is useful for parts exposed to higher temperatures.
Post-Processing: ABS can be easily sanded, painted, and smoothed using acetone vapor, allowing for a high-quality finish and refined details.
Flexibility: Offers a degree of flexibility, which helps in creating parts that need to absorb impact without cracking.
Applications
ABS filament is perfect for:
Functional Parts: Durable components and assemblies that require high strength and heat resistance.
Enclosures and Housings: Ideal for creating protective casings and structural elements that need to withstand environmental stress.
Custom Prototypes: Great for prototyping functional parts that need to be tested under real-world conditions.
