MakerBot METHOD X True Color ABS Filament Black 0.65kg
Optimized for the MakerBot METHOD X 3D printer, this spool of black True Color ABS Filament is designed to bring your printed projects to life with strength and precision. ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is one of the most popular materials for injection molded consumer products, found in LEGOS, computer keys, power-tool housings, and automotive parts. MakerBot ABS is engineered without modifiers to best match the performance characteristics of injection molded ABS, making it ideal for manufacturing tools, end-use parts, prototypes, and functional components.
Key Features

Superior Material Performance
This production-grade ABS filament is engineered specifically for the METHOD X's 100°C heated chamber, which enables printing manufacturing-grade ABS without warping and without weakening additives. The material delivers a tensile strength of 43 MPa (6,236 psi) and flexural strength of 65 MPa (9,427 psi), making it ideal for creating durable prototypes, functional tools, jigs, fixtures, and end-use parts that require excellent dimensional stability and impact resistance.
Smart Spool Technology
The Smart Spool system provides valuable information including material type, color, and amount remaining via an RFID chip directly to MakerBot Print software. The spool also includes integrated desiccant to maintain optimal moisture levels, ensuring consistent print quality and preventing material degradation during storage.
Compatible with METHOD X 3D Printers
This 1.75mm diameter filament is specifically optimized for use with MakerBot METHOD X and METHOD X Carbon Fiber Edition 3D printers. The 0.65kg (1.43lb) net weight spool provides ample material for medium to large projects, while the vacuum-sealed storage bag ensures the filament stays dry and ready for high-quality prints.
