PolyLite™ ASA is an alternative to ABS with an improved weather resistance. Its UV resistance and excellent mechanical properties make it the perfect choice for real life applications.
Benefits -
- Weather Resistance: Excellent UV and environmental stress cracking resistance.
- Matte Finish: Prints with a nice matte finish, hiding layer lines.
- Durability: Strong and durable, suitable for outdoor applications.
- Good Print Quality: Ensures high-quality prints with excellent layer adhesion.
Does PolyLite™ ASA requires an enclosed 3D printer?
Yes and no, you can watch the reviews below for more information but the rule of thumb is the bigger your print (more than the size of your fist) the more the enclosure will be required for dimensional stability.

What is Jam-Free™ Technology?
What is Jam-Free™ Technology?
Polymaker Jam-Free™ Technology increases the heat resistance of the filament itself (not the printed part) to 140˚C.
This prevent any jamming issue due to the hot end heat creep issue.
Heat creep is the process of heat spreading irregularly throughout your hot end, softening the filament before entering the melting chamber and jamming the filament by making it expand in the cold end..
The increase of the filament heat resistance from 60˚C to 140˚C ensures a Jam-Free experience.
(Note the printed part will have the same heat resistance as regular PLA: ~60˚C)

What is the difference between ASA and ABS?
What is the difference between ASA and ABS?
ASA is almost exactly the same as ABS with 1 major difference and 1 minor difference:
The major difference is ASA is extremely good at weather resistance. (Resistance to UV light and environmental stress cracking)
The minor difference is ASA prints with a nicer matte finish slightly hiding the layer lines.
