MakerBot ASA White 3D Printer Filament 0.65kg for Method X
The MakerBot METHOD X ASA Filament in White is a premium, weather-resistant 3D printing material engineered for high-performance functional prototypes and end-use parts in demanding outdoor environments. Optimized for the MakerBot METHOD X 3D printer, this 0.65kg spool brings your printed projects to life with exceptional strength, precision, and UV resistance, making it ideal for automotive, agriculture, power and utilities, oil and gas, and mass transit industries.
Why Choose MakerBot ASA Filament?
Unlike ABS, ASA features superior UV resistance and a thermoplastic formulation that retains gloss, colour, and mechanical properties even when exposed to harsh outdoor elements such as sunlight and rain over extended periods. With a tensile modulus of 310,000 psi for high rigidity and a tensile strength of 7,100 psi, this filament delivers outstanding durability and performance for demanding applications.
Key Features
-
Weather and UV Resistant: Retains colour, gloss, and mechanical properties in outdoor environments
-
High Heat Deflection: Withstands temperatures up to 96°C (204.8°F)
-
Superior Rigidity: 310,000 psi tensile modulus and 7,100 psi tensile strength
-
Smart Spool Technology: Integrated RFID chip transmits material type, colour, and remaining amount to the printer
-
Built-in Desiccant: Maintains low moisture levels inside the drawer bay for optimal print quality
-
Compatible Support Material: Works with SR-30 dissolvable support for unrestricted geometric freedom
Ideal Applications
MakerBot Precision ASA is the material of choice for parts that will be exposed to sunlight, moisture, and outdoor elements. Perfect for automotive components, agricultural equipment, power and utility products, oil and gas parts, and mass transit applications. The high UV and chemical resistance ensures long-lasting performance in harsh environments.
Smart Spool Technology
Each spool features Smart Spool technology with an integrated RFID chip that communicates directly with MakerBot Print software. The system automatically detects the material type, colour, and amount remaining, while the built-in desiccant helps maintain optimal moisture levels for consistent, reliable prints.
