ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a tough, impact-resistant thermoplastic widely used in engineering and consumer applications. It offers good heat resistance, dimensional stability, and machinability. Ideal for functional prototypes, enclosures, and parts requiring post-processing such as acetone smoothing. Enclosed printing is recommended.
