ASA CF is a UV stable, low moisture absorbing, high strength, light weight plastic optimized for outdoor use.
ASA is similar to ABS in almost all aspects with the addition of UV stability.
Adding carbon fibers to ASA makes it stronger & stiffer, compared to pure ABS / ASA that is more bendy.
And despite the addition of fibers, CF ASA still offers the same impact properties whilst being even lighter in weight.
This makes Carbon ASA excellent in high performance boats & cars.

ASA also has a matted look compared to plastics like PET which are generally quite glossy.
Carbon Fiber reinforced ASA has greater stiffness & strength over conventional ASA, & also reduces shrinkage.
This makes ASA an excellent choice where you want strength benefits comparable to Nylon, but with UV performance.

Description

ASA filament reinforced with Carbon Fiber is optimised for 3d printing high tensile parts compared to common ASA materials.
This makes it a good choice to make large functional parts that can be deployed in the field thanks to ASA’s excellent UV stability.

ASA is the cheapest material to offer excellent UV resistance, as well as low moisture absorption.
It is also easier to work with than more advanced materials like PEI.

We recommend using a heated chamber at 50C to minimise shrinkage & get optimum interlayer adhesion, particularly with CF filaments.
