3DO ASA CF is a carbon fiber-reinforced, UV-resistant, and weatherproof copolymer designed for high-performance industrial applications.
It offers exceptional rigidity, thermal stability, 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 carbon fibers.
3DO ASA CF is a high-performance carbon fiber-reinforced ASA filament, engineered for industrial applications that require superior mechanical properties and environmental resistance. This filament is UV-resistant, weatherproof, and features a matte surface finish, making it ideal for outdoor use and mechanically stressed components. The carbon fiber reinforcement provides increased rigidity and heat distortion resistance, while the material's low warping tendencies ensure reliable and precise printing results. Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fibers, the use of a hardened, abrasive-resistant nozzle is required to prevent excessive wear on standard nozzles.
