FLASHFORGE ASA Filament 1.75mm Black, 3D Printer Filament 1kg (2.2lbs) Spool, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm, Durable, High UV-Resistant, Perfect for Printing Outdoor Functional Parts

TLDR: Enclosure, good hotend and a regular ass ender 3 from 2021 can print this beaufully... even if your encoding is a big cd m cardboard box. It prints very rigid, VERY rigid but is it just as strong. Keep realistic expectations in your settings and you'll get a bashful beautiful piece of hard plastic with high glass transition temp. Sorry no photos, I'm currently 3 floors away from the finished products and I'm not getting out of bed to go take photos. I have never used ASA before, I've printed with abs, nylon, nylon-cf (nylonX), petg, pla, petg& pla-CF.... pretty much everything but ASA. I expected something similar to nylon but instead it is very very rigid, definitely recommend a hardened nozzle. It printed similar to Nylon-X. It is extremely rigid, very tough, has a high heat resistance. And it printed easy, really easy. I didn't have a tough trial period. Obviously, enclosure but my enclosure is a lack setup with fiberglass. It is sealed with silicone so there is no everyone escaping of heat but the heat is strictly generated by the printer, the bed mostly. I use PEI with aquaflow hairspray (I'm old school, been using it since 2016). I have a total off 9 FDM printers, 3 SLA. 3 of my FDM are enclosed, 2 of which are lack endorse based. I ensure they were built to the of their capability, it doesn't quite compare to something like a K1C or bamboo labs enclosure but the point is, this stuff, you could take an endure 3 (upgraded hotend) and throw a cardboard box over it and it'll print. Keep your expectations realistic, don't go thinking your going to print this at 120mm/s but 60 is fine, as long as you have a proper setup. Not bragging but I run PLA at 175-250 @ 5k accel on a 350x350 bed, just pointing out a properly set machine will perform for what you build it for. A standard ender 3v2 with a good hotend week leave you with amazing quality prints. Oh, DRY IT OUT, EVERY TIME. Print from a dryer. It matters. But it is wonderful.

I found this to be a great filament in my ancient 3D printer. I formerly used a considerable amount of ABS and PLA, but this was my first use of ASA, and I was very happy. It came well sealed from the factory and I did not have any problems with how it fed. I was also pleased with the look of the final product, but to be fair, my printer is very old and imprecise, so I can't judge that aspect as well as some other people might using newer and better printers that showcase a great amount of detail. I was just happy for this stuff to make a complete and sturdy print that held up to outdoor exposure in the way that I required.

I print parts for Pond and Pool products. My products can be in full sun for years, so I need the best filament with little printing issues. My printers run 24/7 for large parts and plates of smaller parts. FlashForge has little issues and the prints turn out really well. Once I insulated my printers and preheated the chamber to at least 40 Celsius, more near 50 is better, my prints print flat and stick well. FlashForge was affordable, when others were not. I could get for less on Amazon than bulk buying from others. FlashForge is great and has remained cost-effective. It would take a lot to get me to switch to another brand, especially when others coated almost 50% more. Once again, I am a fan of FlashForge ASA filament. I just purchased another 10 spools and decided to write this review. @FlashForge, please don't raise your prices when other find out how good your ASA is - like the other guys. ❤️ FlashForge ASA

I'm questioning whether this is truly ASA plastic. It prints nicely but I left a test print out in the weather for about a year and a half and it has noticeably deteriorated (yellowing and extremely brittle). I purchased this material for its advertised qualities (uv resistant, weather proof, functional outdoor parts, etc) but this performs no where near as well as it should. Is it cheap because they aren't 100% asa? Is it a cheaper blend of plastics? I bought over $200 worth and printed parts for a greenhouse that are now trash.

Edit. The Burnt Titanium is gorgeous. The Black Green, is disappointingly light rather than "Black". See photo Gorgeous! I was in a hurry, so didn't dry or dial in this filament at all. Just used Bambu slicer's Generic ASA setting on my P1S. And the print came out amazing. Good adhesion, no warping, dry out of the box, and the color is fantastic. Of course I started with a super clean plate with 2 dried layers of well spread glue (Elmer's purple) and a small brim - my usual ASA routine. I'm very happy with this and will happily buy more when I run out. I tried buying one "used in original packaging" . That was a joke. It was in the box, but not in a sealed bag, it arrived so dirty and dusty I wouldn't put it in my printer. Lesson learned, don't buy used filament

Print goed en ziet er uitstekend uit. Uit de verpakking gehaald en gedroogd in Polydryer voordat ik het heb gebruikt. Ik heb een Bambu P1S. Instelling: Generic ASA. Shrinkage gemeten: X-as 99.44% en Y-as 99.56%. Gemiddelde shrinkage 99.50%.

Plastique très facile à imprimer du moment qu on l'a bonne imprimante une buse qui chauffe bien et un plateau aussi. Il n' y a pas d'odeur. J ai fait un abreuvoir pour oiseaux et avec l' asa il est bien étanche et en plus ce plastique résiste au UV.

I needed some ASA to print some heat resistant parts. Found this to be good value, and in stock. Ran it through a drying cycle. Then using the Bambu Lab generic ASA settings on my H2D, it printed in dual colour, with black, with no defects, no issues and very good finish. I used the Bambu Lab textured pei plate and the first layer adhesion was perfect. One word of caution, this filament is slightly brittle and will snap more readily than pla when placing it in the AMS when loading. Not a huge problem, just something to be aware of. All in all, I found it to be a very usable filament.

G.O.A.T ASA filament. Nur etwas bessere Angaben zu Standard druckeinstellungen wären schön.

Le filament Flashforge ASA était parfois mal voire très mal enroulé mais toujours de qualité bonne qualité. Cette fois il est aussi bien enroulé. Je suis très content de mon achat et je recommande ce matériel. Je n'ai jamais perdu une pièce imprimé en ASA de Flashforge à cause de mauvaise qualité de matériel. Sur mon Bambu X1C il s'imprime aussi bien que du PLA avec le même résultat esthétique.
