ASA-CF: common questions
What is ASA-CF good for?
ASA-CF is a common choice for outdoor brackets & mounts, automotive exterior trim, marine accessories, solar & antenna hardware. UV- and weather-resistant ASA reinforced with carbon fiber. Outdoor durability of ASA with extra stiffness and a matte black finish. Choose it over PA-CF for outdoor parts where sun exposure matters more than peak strength.
How strong and heat-resistant is ASA-CF?
Printed ASA-CF parts have a typical tensile strength of 45–55 MPa and heat resistance of ~100 °C. These are typical values for printed parts in the XY direction; strength between layers is lower, so orientation matters for loaded parts.
How big a part can you print in ASA-CF, and how fast?
Up to 350 × 320 × 325 mm in one piece; larger parts are printed in sections and joined, after a review. Production takes 2-5 business days, and rush service is available.
