Ultimaker ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is formulated to minimize warping and ensure consistent interlayer adhesion. ABS material is a great choice for creating functional prototypes and complex end-use parts.
Summary
We’ve optimized Ultimaker ABS to made it easier to print with than other ABS filaments:
- Good interlayer adhesion, especially when printing with an enclosed front
- Withstands temperatures of up to 85 °C
- Achieve aesthetic detail that rivals injection molded parts
- Dual extrusion with a choice of 10 ABS colors, or with Breakaway support material
Properties
Ultimaker ABS material properties include:
- Good flexural strength (70.5 MPa)
- High impact strength (Izod tested to 10.5 kJ/m²)
- High hardness (79 Shore D)
- High melting temperature (from 225 °C)
Applications
Ultimaker ABS is a versatile 3D printing material. It can be used for:
- Visual and functional prototyping
- Fit testing
- Tooling
- End-use parts
- Concept models
- Custom components
- Short-run manufacturing
Compatibility
Ultimaker ABS is officially supported by the Ultimaker S5, Ultimaker 3 series, and Ultimaker 2+ series of 3D printers. It is compatible for dual extrusion with the following materials:
- Ultimaker ABS
- Ultimaker Breakaway
