Meet Ambrosia ASA-CF Filament of the Gods—the carbon-fiber reinforced ASA powerhouse engineered for engineers, makers, and artists who demand performance with every print. This 1 kg spool of 1.75 mm filament blends virgin Grade-A non-toxic pellets with long chopped carbon fiber, delivering a remarkably stiff, strong, and dimensionally stable material. Expect consistent extrusion and tight tolerances that keep your parts true to design from start to finish.
Why ASA-CF stands out
- Carbon fiber boost—Chopped carbon fibers increase stiffness and improve layer adhesion, resulting in parts that resist flex and delamination under load.
- Ultra-tight tolerance—Manufactured to +/- 0.03 mm, you’ll enjoy reliable, repeatable prints with fewer dimensional deviations.
- Dark, premium appearance—CF infill yields rich, dark tones that look incredible in mechanical and decorative parts.
- Carbide-friendly printing—ASA is already UV- and heat-resistant; the CF reinforcement makes the filament even more abrasive to the nozzle. Use a tungsten carbide nozzle for long-term durability.
- AMS-friendly packaging—Packed on a sturdy cardboard spool inside a cardboard box, with a desiccant to help maintain dryness and print quality.
Material performance you can trust
- Diameter 1.75 mm ± 0.03 mm
- Filament weight 1 kg
- Density 1.09–1.10 g/cm³
- Melt Flow Rate 4–7 g/10 min (at 250°C)
- Tensile strength 39–42 MPa; elongation at break 15.5–17.5%
- Flexural modulus 850–900 MPa; flexural strength 80–82.5 MPa
- Impact strength 10.5–12 kJ/m²
- HD T 88°C (0.455 MPa)
- Environment Best printed with enclosure and heated bed; UV and weather resistant
What you can print with confidence
- Mechanical components that endure outdoor exposure, high temperatures, and repeated loading—gears, brackets, housings, and robot parts.
- Decorative fixtures and UI panels where a strong, stiff structure matters and a dark, premium finish is desired.
- Functional prototypes that benefit from accurate dimensions and reliable layer adhesion, with less warping than some other materials.
Recommended printer setup
- Extruder temperature: 250–280°C, with a common target around 270°C.
- Heated bed: 100–120°C, with 110°C as a practical baseline.
- Build surface: Textured PEI, BuildTak, or equivalent
- Cooling: 0–70% depending on your printer’s capabilities
- Supports: HIPS soluble supports are a good option if you need clean overhangs
- Enclosure: Strongly recommended to minimize warping and improve print quality
Practical tips for best results
- Because ASA-CF is more abrasive, consider a carbide or hardened steel nozzle to extend nozzle life.
- Store the filament in a dry environment and use the included desiccant to preserve performance during long print sessions.
- Expect slightly darker prints due to carbon fiber infill; this helps hide minor surface imperfections and yields a professional, engineered look.
- To maximize dimensional accuracy, print with a well-calibrated printer, a heated enclosure, and a stable bed temperature at the recommended ranges.
Packaging and storage
Delivered on a durable cardboard spool within a protective box, Ambrosia Filament prioritizes responsible packaging. The spool is designed for AMS-friendly handling, and the desiccant bag helps maintain dryness through storage. For best results, keep the spool sealed when not in use and avoid high-humidity environments that can affect print quality.
