68fe986ed44b8
Proudly manufactured in Canada, our ASA filament brings durable, outdoor-ready performance to your 3D prints. Designed for parts that face sun, weather, and continuous use, this material combines engineering-grade strength with the reliability of locally-produced quality. Ideal for outdoor signage, automotive parts, functional housings or any application where resistance to UV, heat and impact matters. ✅ Why choose our ASA filament? Made in Canada — Local manufacturing means tighter control, quicker availability and supporting Canadian industry. UV & weather resistant — Built for outdoor conditions: sun, moisture, fading and temperature extremes. High mechanical strength — Perfect for functional end-use parts, housings, mounts or fixtures under load. Easy to integrate — While delivering advanced performance, this filament is designed for use on standard FDM/FFF machines (within proper parameters) with support for everyday workflow. 🎯 Ideal for: Outdoor applications such as signage, displays, garden equipment, patio fixtures. Automotive or marine parts requiring UV and weather durability. Functional parts, housings and enclosures exposed to the elements, heat or mechanical stress. Makers and print service providers wanting a high-performance material while keeping production local and reliable. 🛠️ Recommended print settings Nozzle temperature: ~ 235-260 °C Bed temperature: ~ 90-110 °C (or as advised per machine) Enclosure recommended: Yes (to stabilise ambient temperature and reduce warping) Cooling fan: Low to moderate (to optimise layer bonding and reduce risk of delamination) Drying: Ensure filament is dry prior to use—store in a drybag or filament dryer when unused. 📋 Filament specifications Diameter: 1.75 mm (± 0.05 mm tolerance) Spool weight: 1 kg Material: ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) — unfilled, engineering grade Heat & UV resistant – designed for outdoor durability Manufactured in Canada under strict quality control Vacuum-sealed with desiccant to guard against moisture before use 💡 Tips for best performance Use a well-leveled build surface and consider a brim or skirt for first-layer stability. If you notice warping or corner lifting, increase bed temperature slightly or add enclosure for ambient stability. Keep filament dry. Moisture uptake can lead to poor surface finish, bubbling or delamination. After printing, allow part to cool slowly in enclosure or under cover to minimise residual stresses. 🧾 Summary For parts that need to withstand sun, weather and mechanical stress, our Canadian-made ASA filament is a premium choice. Locally manufactured, engineered for durability and built to deliver consistent results — it’s the high-performance solution you can trust.
