Prusament ASA Jet Black 800g (NFC)

Product description

Prusament ASA Jet Black 800g (NFC) is a high-quality ASA filament manufactured directly by Prusa Research on its own production lines. ASA is considered a modern successor to ABS – it is UV stable, shrinks less, has lower odor during printing while maintaining high strength and toughness of prints. Thanks to its excellent heat resistance (without deformation approximately up to 93 °C), the material is ideal for functional and outdoor parts.

This variant uses a new spool with an NFC label according to the OpenPrintTag standard. When placed near a supported printer or read in a mobile app, key information about the material (type, color, recommended temperatures and other parameters) is automatically loaded, which greatly simplifies print setup and filament inventory management.

Printing recommendations

To achieve high-quality ASA prints, it is advisable to follow specific printing conditions:

• Recommended nozzle temperature: approx. 260 ± 5 °C
• Recommended bed temperature: approx. 110 ± 5 °C
• Recommended print sheet: steel sheet with a satin / smooth PEI surface
• Recommended environment:
  • Printing in a closed printing chamber / enclosure to minimize warping
  • Avoid drafts in the vicinity of the printer
• Ventilation: ASA contains styrene and releases fumes during printing, therefore print in a well-ventilated room that can be aired out after printing.

Before printing, always carefully degrease the bed surface (e.g. with isopropyl alcohol), and for larger models consider using a brim, skirt or a draft shield to reduce corner lifting and warping.

Advantages of ASA compared to other materials

• Vs. PLA
  • Much higher heat resistance
  • Better mechanical and impact resistance
  • More suitable for outdoor and functional parts
• Vs. PETG
  • Higher heat resistance
  • Better UV stability
  • Surface can be sanded and smoothed with acetone more easily
• Vs. ABS
  • Less shrinkage and warping
  • Lower odor during printing
  • Better UV stability and resistance to aging
