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 common PLA or PETG is not enough. Thanks to the 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, proximity to engines, heat sources, etc.).
• Excellent mechanical strength and toughness – suitable for functional and structural parts that must withstand loads.
• Better weather resistance than ABS – water, moisture, and temperature changes do not have such a negative effect on ASA.
• Possibility of post-processing – can be sanded, drilled, glued, and painted for a perfect final appearance.

Typical use of Professional Lab ASA Green

• Exterior parts – covers, holders, grips, garden equipment elements
• Automotive and industry – components for vehicle interiors/exteriors, sensor holders, casing
• Technical and functional parts – jigs, assembly fixtures, structural connectors, 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 (deep 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 by 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 suitable adhesive (glue, spray, sticky sheet)

To minimize deformation (warping), it is recommended:

• printing in a closed printer or box,
• using a brim or raft for larger parts,
• a high-quality degreased and correctly 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 standard FDM/FFF printers with a heated bed

Storage

ASA is less hygroscopic than e.g. nylon, but to maintain peak print quality, it is recommended:

• store the filament in a closed container with desiccant,
• during longer inactivity, seal the spool in a zip bag or dry box.
