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.
