Overview
ASA is the top choice for UV and weather resistance: 44 MPa tensile and a 96°C HDT with outstanding resistance to sunlight, so parts keep their colour and properties through long-term outdoor exposure.
Low warpage and high dimensional stability make it suitable for precision and mid-to-large parts, used as-printed or painted.
