Description
Ambrosia Filament's line of ASA Galactic (Sparkle) filament is derived from 100% Virgin Grade-A Non-Toxic pellets. This filament has glitter infused into the filament that results in a beautiful sparkle effect. Manufactured to a tighter than standard tolerance (+/- 0.03mm) you'll experience consistent extrusion throughout the spool.

ASA is the natural successor to ABS and is great for both mechanical, functional or decorative parts. It prints well, with less warping than some other filaments, however it is highly encouraged to use an enclosure. A heated bed is required. ASA Galactic filament has high strength, impact and weather resistance (including UV), and can withstand higher temperatures than many common filaments (e.g. PLA/PETG).
- Arrives to you in a cardboard box, with filament wound in a cardboard spool, vacuum sealed with a desiccant bag.
- Derived from 100% Virgin (Grade-A) non-toxic pellets
- Diameter: 1.75mm (+/-0.03mm)
- Filament Net Weight: 1KG
- Spool Weight:
The glue holding the filament spool together is rated for an environment of 70C (158F). If using a filament dryer or require the filament spool by placed in an environment exceeding this temperature, we recommend printing a spool clip (Here).

Filament can absorb moisture easily. To prevent moisture absorption and contamination, the packing of filament should be kept sealed and in an airtight container with desiccant.
