You get ASA's real strengths — UV stability and weather resistance for parts that live outdoors — plus the stiffness, dimensional stability and low-warp behavior the glass fiber adds. Phaetus also tunes this for lower odor than standard ASA, which is welcome on long prints. The finish is a matte, slightly textured \"carbon-fiber-look\" surface that hides layer lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it prints well:\u003c\/strong\u003e functional outdoor parts, automotive trim and brackets, enclosures, jigs, and larger models where plain ASA would warp. It is not a cosmetic high-gloss material — it is an engineering filament that trades shine for stiffness and stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePrint settings (Phaetus)\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNozzle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250-270°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBed:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100-110°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e required.

Run a hardened steel, DLC-coated, tungsten carbide, or ruby nozzle. If you do not already have one, add a hardened nozzle to your order before you load this — it is not optional with GF filament.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDrying\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eASA absorbs moisture over time. If the spool has been open, or you see stringing, steam, or popping at the nozzle, dry it (roughly 70-80°C for 4-6 hours in a filament dryer) before printing. Store it sealed with desiccant between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: one reseller lists the glass-fiber content as 15-20%; Phaetus's own spec states 10%.
