3DO ASA-GF is a glass fiber-reinforced, UV-resistant, and weatherproof copolymer designed for high-performance industrial applications.
It offers exceptional rigidity, heat resistance, and low warping, making it ideal for mechanically stressed components exposed to outdoor conditions.
A hardened nozzle is recommended due to the abrasive nature of the glass fibers.
3DO ASA-GF is a high-performance, glass fiber-reinforced ASA filament designed for industrial applications that demand superior mechanical properties and environmental resistance. This filament is specifically engineered to withstand UV exposure and harsh weather conditions, making it ideal for outdoor and automotive applications. The glass fiber reinforcement provides exceptional rigidity and heat resistance, while the material's low warping tendencies ensure reliable and precise printing results. Given the abrasive nature of glass fibers, it is recommended to use a hardened nozzle to prevent excessive wear on standard nozzles.
