M-ABS is a transparent ABS filament, so strong, durable and impact resistant. Due to the low percentage of butadiene in M-ABS this filament smells much less unpleasant than ABS, and, moreover, also shows less warping. The M-ABS polymer is inherently less impact resistant than ABS, but slightly modified our M-ABS filament is still approx. 3 times more impact resistant than any regular PLA in the market. The transparency of the polymer makes it also possible to manufacture deep opaque colours, if desired.
M-ABS features:
- Transparent, translucent
- Not the unpleasant smell of ABS
- High impact M-ABS
- Good chemical resistance
- Less warping than ABS

Colours:
M-ABS is available from stock in 12 colours.
For non stock colours a minimum of 40kg ± 10% is required.
Packaging:
M-ABS is available in nearly any type of packaging and labelling. Ask our team to help you customizing your product.
Additional info:
Recommended temperature for heated bed is ± 90-100 ˚C.
M-ABS can be used on all common desktop FDM technology or FFF 3D printers.
Storage:
Cool and dry (15-25 ˚C) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
