ABS coral – 1kg Filament

Description

ABS filament (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is one of the most widely used engineering thermoplastics in 3D printing and offers a balanced combination of strength, temperature resistance and processability. It is ideal for functional prototypes, technical components and mechanically demanding applications, especially where increased impact strength and dimensional stability are required.

Thanks to its good heat resistance and robust mechanical properties, ABS is frequently used in automotive engineering, for housing parts, jigs and fixtures and in model making. Compared to materials such as PLA, ABS is more heat resistant, tougher and much better suited for applications under mechanical load.

ABS filament is easy to post-process, whether by sanding, milling or bonding. It can also be smoothed or welded with acetone vapour to achieve a surface that is close to injection-moulded quality.
