Description
ASA Natural
When you don’t add any colors to the ASA raw material, this is how it looks. Slightly off white, but really nice color for technical parts and the perfect start of a project if you need to finish it with paint.
The two most important features of ASA are its inherent UV stability and high temperature resistance of 96C. This material is well suited to be used for long lasting outdoor applications.
ASA is more susceptible to warping compared to PLA or PETG type filaments. Please find our Printing Advice below for more detail.
- UV resistant
- High temperature resistant
- Tough and rigid
Parts printed with ASA can withstand prolonged exposure to UV light and retain toughness and durability for a much longer time then ABS. Therefore ASA is a really interesting alternative to ABS.

Printing Advise
ASA is more susceptible to warping compared to PLA or PETG type filaments. Especially models with a large footprint can shrink and warp during printing, but compared to ABS in most cases less severe.
Apart from using a large brim and heated build plate of 90-100C (or higher if your machine is capable) we can also advice the following. Print a tall skirt around your model to reduce cold air flow around the printed model or print inside an enclosure for better control of the environment temperature.
| Advised 3D printing temperature 240C-260C |
| Advised 3d print speed 30-50 mm/s |
| Advised Heated bed 90-100C |
| Cooling fan To reduce warping we would advice to use the least amount of cooling possible. Also for best mechanical performance try printing with the least amount of cooling needed, for optimal layer adhesion. |
