ASA
ASA
Engineered for Longevity
ASA stands out in outdoor and functional applications. With tensile strength of ~37 MPa and elongation ~9%, it offers a stiff-yet-slightly-ductile feel that resists cracking under tension. It also maintains structural integrity at temperatures up to ~100 °C, making it ideal for warm environments.
Built to Take a Hit
With bending modulus ~1,920 MPa and bending strength ~65 MPa, ASA parts hold their shape under load. They also absorb impacts (~41 kJ/m²) without fracturing—great for components exposed to daily wear.
Weatherproofed & UV-Stable
Thanks to its acrylic copolymer structure, ASA delivers outstanding UV resistance and retains color over time—perfect for outdoor fixtures or long-lasting signage.
Matte Finish, Mechanical Precision
It naturally prints with a low-gloss matte surface that hides minor imperfections and delivers a clean, production-ready look.
🔧 Best For:
-
Outdoor components: brackets, housings, garden hardware
-
Automotive & marine parts: grilles, enclosures, exterior fittings
-
Functional fixtures: jigs, tool handles, mechanical parts
