In plain words
Good for
Outdoor and sun-exposed parts. What we offer when you ask for ABS.
Not for
Some oils, greases and solvents.
Upright is weaker
A printed part is strongest along its layers (flat, X-Y) and weaker across them (upright, Z). The table shows both. We turn the part so the load runs along the layers.

Key numbers
As printed on the maker's data sheet. "Not published" means the data sheet does not give it.
| Property | Flat (X-Y) | Upright (Z) |

| Bending strength | 65 ± 5 MPa | 40 ± 3 MPa |
| Stiffness (bending modulus) | 1920 ± 130 MPa | 1650 ± 120 MPa |
Impact strengthISO 179 | 41.0 ± 2.3 kJ/m²; 19.6 ± 1.8 kJ/m² (notched) | 4.9 ± 0.6 kJ/m² |

Bends under light load atHDT 0.45 MPa | 100 °C (212 °F) |
Bends under heavier load atHDT 1.8 MPa | 92 °C (198 °F) |
Softening pointVicat | 106 °C (223 °F) |
| Density | 1.05 g/cm³ |
| Water uptake | 0.45% (saturated, 25 °C, 55% RH) |
| Burning | Flammable |
Flame ratingUL 94 | Not published |
| Sunlight (UV) | The data sheet calls it UV and weather resistant; no test value given |
| Acids | Resistant |
| Alkalis | Resistant |
| Solvents | Not resistant to some organic solvents |
| Oil and grease | Not resistant to some kinds of oil and grease |
Test conditions from the data sheet: Nozzle 260 °C, bed 80 °C, 200 mm/s, 100% infill; annealed and dried at 80 °C for 12 h before testing. These are lab numbers for test bars, not a working limit for your part. The real limit depends on the load, the time at temperature and the shape, which is why we ask about all three.
