Polymaker ASA Filament 1.75mm Army Brown, 1kg ASA 3D Printing Filament, Heat & Weather Resistant - ASA 3D Printer Filament Perfect for Printing Outdoor Functional Parts

I've been using Polymaker filaments for various 3D printing projects, and I can confidently say that the quality I get from their ASA filament is nothing short of exceptional. Whether I'm printing complex designs or simple parts, the consistency and reliability of Polymaker ASA never disappoint.The filament flows smoothly, with minimal warping and excellent layer adhesion, even on larger prints. I've used it to print several outdoor items, including a custom Starlink mount, and the results have been outstanding. The filament produces a beautiful, matte finish that gives my prints a professional look right off the printer. It's also incredibly durable and resistant to UV light, making it perfect for outdoor applications.Another aspect I appreciate is the minimal odor during printing. Polymaker ASA has a much lower odor compared to other filaments I've used, which is a significant plus for long printing sessions.Overall, Polymaker continues to impress me with the quality of their filaments. If you're looking for a filament that delivers consistent, high-quality results every time, I highly recommend Polymaker ASA.

Polymaker ASA is hands down the best ASA filament I’ve worked with. It prints smooth and consistently, with a flawless surface finish and excellent adhesion. Unlike some other brands, it always comes properly wound, so there are no tangles or feeding issues—just reliable, hassle-free printing.The filament flows beautifully through the nozzle, making it easy to dial in great print settings. Layer bonding is strong, and the final prints come out clean, durable, and professional-looking. If you’re looking for high-quality ASA filament that performs well every time, Polymaker ASA is the one to get! Highly recommended.

Used on Creality Ender Series machines, and Voron2.4 Has a good first layer at bed temp of 95c and layer adhesion through out the print with extruder temp of 257c. No Tangles with no stringing in prints. Easy to use pretty much runs as it should. Has a nice solid color. Polymaker filaments have always been a trusted product for me when I need reliabilty from a roll of filament.

This is the BEST ASA filament I’ve found. It’s very clean, it has great build plate adhesion, and it doesn’t ooze like other filaments when you preheat the hot end. Other filaments I have to preheat the hot end and wait about 15 minutes, then remove the foot-long string of oozed filament from the nozzle. This stuff I get maybe 3/4” of ooze. You can actually skip the preheat with this filament because it oozes so slowly that the printer will be printing before it causes an issue. I’ve had other ASA filaments that won’t adhere to the PEI build plate even on the first layer. You can see it separating. This does not have that problem. It also doesn’t make big blobs at seams or string out like other filaments. WELL worth the money for this filament. I’m using a CR-6 SE with enclosure and add-on PEI plate if that helps anyone.

This is the best ASA I have found. It prints smoothly and adhesion (with Magigoo glue on smooth glass) is pretty good. I think adhesion is better than other brands because it warps less. I gave it only 4 stars because it is also the most expensive.

First and foremost, this was my first time ever printing in ASA. Initially, I started with ABS but could not stand the smell. Even with my air purifier on high, it was horrible. Out of the box it had alot of moisture that made it unbearable to print with so tbh, im never touching the stuff. Looking for alternatives, Polymaker came up and decided to check them out for the first time. I'd only ever printed PLA but mostly PETG. This project required either ABS or ASA for thier properties. If you've never printed with either of these, its not for the faint of heart. I liked Polymaker alot better as the smell wasn't so nauseating. Subtle with no enclosure and barely noticable with. I always run an air purifier that can filter any offgassing. I plan to print a nevermore filter also. It was a challenge for me to get this dialed in but in the end, this is what worked:- The bed really needs to be properly leveled, I cannot stress this enough.- I have a flex plate with a piece of probably 1mm pei on it. I sanded it to get it scuffed up with 80 grit sand paper (didn't have textured pei so this was the alternative). Washed it with dish soap, dried it and wiped it down with iso alcohol 90%.- Enabled Linear Advance and used teaching tech's video to configure (easy). This is optional but I've been hearing about it and found that it truly does improve the quality of the print.- Ensured that Z/ESteps were configured (I had to change extruders). The calibration cubes all measured the correct size.- Adjusted the flow rate. This really needs to be checked to avoid over extrusion even if the steps are correct.- Use elmers glue stick (the xtreme version). Believe me, I experienced warping when first attempting to print this. Initially, tried ASA juice/slurry which I advise against because it reeks and is a PITA to clean. Also tried sugar water which is laughable but seems to work for some. Get the glue stick. It's cheaper, water soluble, non-toxic and it just works. Not spending $20+ for the competition. Just run your flex plate under water and boom. If using on a bed take something to wipe it off (safely) if needed. Done cleaning.- Consistent heat. Do a PID tune. I found that this was one of the main reasons for warping. Whether using your printer in an enclosure or wherever, make sure there are no windy drafts of air. Also, I was used to setting certain temperatures for the first layer then reducing it when printing PETG. Not this time. Leave it be.- I stopped using brims. They work to reduce warping/corner lift but I can't stand them. Even though this ASA is relatively easy to sand, its annoying to remove/post-process especially when you have alot of small parts.Settings/Printer:Tevo TornadoPrusa Slicer250 NozzleBed is preheated for 10m (heat soak)90 bed (truly dont need to go higher than this)2 skirt linesDraft protection (hey it works but is probably not needed)I highly recommend this brand. Once you get things dialed in, it prints like butter. No moisture issues as the filament is well vaccum sealed and I keep all of my filament in an airtight container with dessicant at rest and in use. Love the natural color.
