Filament for detailed prints
E3D spoolWorks MatX ASA filament is a strong, tough material designed for makers who need accurate results with a smooth satin finish. It replaces ABS in functional parts while delivering better layer adhesion and about ten times the weathering and UV resistance. The formulation suits users printing detailed models on printers that accept 2.85mm filament.
Works with standard 2.85mm systems
The 750g spool feeds directly into any fused-filament printer equipped for 2.85mm diameter material without hardware changes. Exceptional flow properties allow reliable extrusion through very small nozzles such as the experimental 0.15mm size. It pairs with Scaffold Snap support material for firm adhesion and clean breakaway on complex geometries.
Thermal behaviour in normal use
As an ASA-based filament MatX provides higher long-term heat resistance than ABS and resists common cleaning chemicals. The material prints at typical ASA temperatures so existing printer profiles remain valid. Good flow reduces the risk of nozzle pressure build-up during long prints, keeping extrusion consistent across detailed features.

Questions about this item
How small a nozzle can MatX ASA filament reliably print with?
MatX ASA works well with tiny nozzles down to 0.15 mm, giving accurate detail on fine features.
Does this ASA filament produce strong odours or need an actively heated chamber during long prints?
ASA prints with less odour than ABS and does not require an actively heated chamber, though an enclosure helps prevent warping on large parts.
What support material works with MatX ASA for clean breakaway on complex models?
Scaffold Snap support material bonds to MatX ASA and breaks away cleanly, leaving a smooth surface on overhangs.
