Ultrafuse® ABS
ABS is the second most used 3D printing material
Strong, flexible and has a high heat resistance. ABS is a preferred plastic for engineers and professional applications. ABS can be smoothened with acetone. To make a proper 3D print with ABS you will need a heated print bed. The filament is available in 9 colors.
