Among the many different polymers and blends that Makers like to use, two?3D Filament?types stand out as firm favourites,?PLA?and ABS. While PLA is widely popular due to its easy printing style and vibrant colours,?ABS filament?definitely comes in at a close second place due to its impressive mechanical capabilities. If you want long-lasting functionality, printing in ABS is the way to go. SA Filament?s ABS is locally made as a blend to give you the strength you need for tougher prints while supporting local.
These 1kg spools of SA Filament ABS Filament are part of a range of vibrant colours for your projects and are made right here in South Africa. ABS is known for its high strength and resistance to mechanical forces. Protect your?electronics?with an ABS casing or finally print a custom part for your car that you know will hold up. This filament has so much functional potential. SA Filament?s ABS may not have the reputation of our other favourite brands, but their blend is cleanly spooled and gives us the option of a lekker local brand to support. Another benefit of ABS is its resistance to general scratches and bruises from dropping your models. If you want a decoration piece to stay pristine and survive a knock to the floor, print is in ABS. While ABS may be more difficult to print with than PLA, the benefits of ABS can certainly outweigh the extra time and effort required. If you?re willing to take the time to learn the subtle tricks and nuances that make ABS trickier than usual, you certainly won?t be disappointed.
While there are a lot of different colours to choose from in?3D Printing, white has always been one of our favourites due to its neutral nature and ability to fit almost any print or model you can imagine.?In addition to just looking damn good, white filaments are fantastic bases for painting your models any colours you want. This makes it a solid choice for miniature printing or decorations, which you want to paint yourself. Cool?White ABS Filament is just as good for practical prints that you simply want to blend in with various environments. The cool white has a lighter hue than others to match cool lighting in the room.
