ABS
Tough Prints for Real-World Use
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is a trusted choice for durable, impactresistant 3D prints. Known for its strength and thermal stability, ABS is ideal for parts that need to perform under stress whether in a workshop, on the factory floor, or in the real world.
While it requires controlled printing conditions, the payoff is high: strong, functional components that last.

Why Choose ABS for 3D Printing?
ABS offers excellent strength, durability, and heat resistance making it ideal for engineering parts, enclosures, and end-use components. It’s a top choice for professionals seeking functional, tough prints.
- High Strength & Impact Resistance – Built for functional use
- Heat Resistant – Suitable for high temperature environments
- Post-Process Friendly – Easy to sand, paint, or acetone-smooth
- Tough & Durable – Ideal for long-term use
Best Applications of ABS Filament
ABS is best suited for functional prototypes, automotive parts, electronic housings, and high-impact models that need toughness and temperature resistance.
- Engineering prototypes
- Housings and enclosures
- Functional tools and parts
- End-use mechanical component


Key Features of ABS Material
ABS is known for its strength, moderate flexibility, and resistance to wear. It delivers smooth finishes, can be post-processed easily, and performs reliably under mechanical stress and heat.
- Durability: Withstands wear and impact
- Stability: Performs under moderate heat
- Finish Options: Can be smoothed for a glossy loo
