REO™ ABS Basic

The classic engineering plastic, for parts that need to take heat and keep working. ABS stays rigid where PLA goes soft, machines and sands cleanly, and smooths to a glossy finish with acetone vapor, which is why it still lives in automotive interiors and power tool housings.

Why you'll like it

• High heat resistance for engine bays, sunlit dashboards, and enclosures near motors
• Tough and rigid, with good impact strength for functional hardware
• Sands, drills, glues, and acetone-smooths into a factory-looking finish
• Consistent ±0.02mm diameter for even extrusion on long jobs
• Vacuum sealed with desiccant, so it stays dry until the moment you open it

Specifications

• Net weight: 1kg (spool included)

When the part has to survive a hot car in July, this is the roll you load.
