Makerbot ABS filament is a premium quality ABS, compatible with the Makerbot Replicator 2x and other 3D printers that use 1.75mm diameter filament and are capable of 3D printing ABS filament. Makerbot True Color black ABS  filament comes in spool sizes of 1kg. The filament is good for detailed prints and can be used in conjunction with Makerbot Dissolvable Filament.

Why Makerbot ABS filament?

Makerbot filament is made from high quality ABS, extruded with high diameter consistency to give you consistent and reliable 3D printing. High quality filament reduces the rate of 3d printing failure and saves you both money and time. Makerbot filament is produced using state of the art filament manufacturing and quality control standards and is trusted by leading institutions and companies throughout the world.

Each Makerbot filament colour is comprehensively quality tested at 100-micron and 200- micron layer resolutions on MakerBot Replicator 3D Printers to verify it will perform every feature that MakerBot® MakerWareTM software offers.

MakerBot ABS Filament requires a heated build platform. MakerBot ABS Filament adheres well to kapton tape on heated build plate. ABS is more prone to warping than PLA so a Heated bed and/or heated print chamber are required. Good first layer adhesion is essential so ensure that you have a level, grease free, build platform and an appropriate z-height.
