Filament Poly PolyLite ASA PF01011 2.85 mm 1000 g white — UV and weather resistant

Poly PolyLite ASA PF01011 2.85 mm 1000 g white is an ASA 3D-printing filament formulated for UV, weather and heat resistance. It is intended for FDM/FFF printers that accept 2.85 mm filament and is aimed at producing outdoor and functional parts that require dimensional stability and long-term durability. The white color provides a neutral finish suitable for enclosures, exterior prototypes and visible components.

Advantages

The filament combines UV-stable chemistry with good mechanical strength and heat resistance to reduce degradation when exposed to sunlight and outdoor conditions. Its formulation supports accurate layer adhesion and dimensional stability, which helps to minimise warping and maintain tolerances on medium- to large-format prints. The material is compatible with typical ASA processing temperatures and can be used for parts that demand resistance to weathering and moderate thermal load.

Suitable for

• Outdoor housings and enclosures
• Automotive exterior and functional components
• Prototyping of products exposed to sunlight and moisture
• Functional fixtures and jigs requiring dimensional stability

Key specifications

• Material type: ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate)
• Diameter: 2.85 mm
• Spool weight: 1000 g net filament
• Colour: white
• Properties: UV and weather resistant, heat resistant, good dimensional stability
• Compatible printing technology: FDM/FFF

How to use

Load the 2.85 mm filament into an FDM/FFF printer compatible with ASA. Set nozzle and bed temperatures according to your printer and ASA processing ranges; typical settings fall in the medium–high temperature range for adequate layer bonding and reduced warping. Use a heated bed and ensure good bed adhesion—brims or rafts can help on larger parts. Enable recommended print cooling settings: limited cooling usually improves interlayer strength for ASA. Dry the filament before printing if it has been stored in humid conditions to avoid extrusion defects.

Usage recommendations

Store the filament sealed and dry to preserve its UV-stable and mechanical properties. For best outdoor performance, consider post-processing options such as annealing or applying compatible coatings to further enhance weather and UV resistance. Test printing small samples and adjusting temperature, layer height and flow before full-size production to achieve optimal dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
