ABS Technical Data Sheet Premium 3D Printer Filament Description ABS filament resists higher temperatures and offers great machinability, flexibility and strength, making it the preferred choice of engineers and professionals. ABS plastic can be vapor smoothed, dissolved, or welded in 434 Acetone, making post-processing easy. MG Chemicals premium 3D printing filaments are manufactured under strict quality control to ensure consistency. Our spools have a large hub to ensure uniform winding, and cut-outs on the sides so the user can easily see how much filament is left.
