Wanhao ABS 3D Printer Filament White 1.75 mm 1 Kg. Spool

ABS is suitable for making objects that may fall, be used in high temperatures, or be used in a rude way. Like a knife handle, a car phone holder, a phone case, a toy, a wedding ring (I mean black ABS). In short, almost everything works.

Mechanical Properties

Strength and Durability

One of the most distinguishing features of Wanhao ABS filament is its robust mechanical properties. ABS is renowned for its strength and impact resistance, making it suitable for printing objects that need to endure stress and rough handling.

• Impact Resistance: ABS filament can withstand high levels of impact without cracking or breaking. This makes it ideal for creating durable items such as phone cases, car parts, and various handheld devices.
• Impact Strength: > 35 kJ/m²

Temperature Resistance

ABS is particularly favored for its ability to withstand higher temperatures compared to other filament types like PLA.

• Heat Deflection Temperature: 85-100°C
• Glass Transition Temperature: 105°C

Dimensional Stability

Dimensional accuracy is critical in 3D printing, and the Wanhao ABS filament excels in this parameter thanks to its low shrinkage and warping characteristics.

• Shrinkage Rate: 0.8%
• Dimensional Stability: ±0.10 mm

Environmental Resistance

Moisture and Corrosion Resistance

The Wanhao ABS filament is designed to be resistant to moisture and corrosion, which ensures longevity and durability, even in challenging environments.

• Moisture Absorption: < 0.3%
• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent

Electrical Insulation

ABS also serves as an excellent electrical insulator, making it a safe choice for electronic applications.

• Volume Resistivity: >10³Ω.cm

Printing Properties

Ease of Use

The Wanhao ABS filament is designed for ease of use, featuring properties that make the printing process smooth and efficient.

• Nozzle Temperature: 220-250°C
