What your process engineer actually checks
Tight diameter, dry, jam-free
Every spool of CreatBot ABS Filament ships with a datasheet covering diameter tolerance, moisture, and a validated CreatBot F430 print profile, so feeds stay consistent and parts hold dimension. Load the profile and print.

About this product
CreatBot ABS Filament is a 1.75mm engineering-grade ABS spool for FDM 3D printing, tested to ISO 527, ISO 178, ISO 75, and ISO 1183. It balances impact strength, heat resistance (78°C HDT at 0.45 MPa, ISO 75), and cost — a workhorse material for functional prototypes and production tooling rather than a specialty grade.
Why engineers choose CreatBot ABS Filament
Four things process engineers check before standardizing on an engineering filament.
Impact resistance for functional parts
ABS is a proven engineering thermoplastic for parts that see shock loading and rough handling — a reason it remains standard for functional parts, not just prototypes. CreatBot’s datasheet doesn’t publish an Izod number, so treat this as directional, not lab-tested.
78°C HDT, 105°C glass transition
A low-stress HDT of 78°C (ISO 75, 0.45 MPa) and 105°C glass transition cover moderate in-service heat — enclosures near warm electronics, tooling on a hot shop floor. Not a rating for sustained high mechanical load at temperature.
±0.02mm diameter tolerance
Tight, consistent diameter means steady extrusion — no mid-print under-extrusion from a loose spot or clogs from a tight one.
Sand, paint, glue, or vapor-smooth
Acetone vapor smoothing gives an injection-molded-looking finish — a reason teams pick ABS over PETG or nylon when a part has to look finished, not just work.
How we ship it
Every spool of CreatBot ABS Filament leaves Gardena, CA the same way.
Step 01
Print profile confirmed
Nozzle and bed temperatures verified on a CreatBot F430 before the spool is listed — not copied from a generic ABS spec sheet.
Step 02
Sealed with desiccant
Vacuum-bagged with the original desiccant pack so the spool is dry on arrival, not just at the factory.
Step 03
Ships from L.A. stock
In stock at our Gardena facility — 1–2 business day dispatch, datasheet included in the box.
Print compatibility
Runs on any FDM/FFF printer with a heated bed to 100°C and a nozzle rated to 260°C — an enclosure helps on larger parts but isn’t required at the recommended fan-off settings. Full mechanical and thermal property values (tested to ISO 527, ISO 178, ISO 75, and ISO 1183) are listed in the Specifications tab below.
Recommended print settings
| Parameter | Recommended value |
|---|---|
| Nozzle temperature | 240°C – 260°C |
| Build plate temperature | 80°C – 100°C |
| Chamber temperature | 50°C (recommended) or off |
| Print speed | 20 – 80 mm/s |
| Cooling fan | Off or low, to prevent warping |
| Nozzle type | Hardened steel nozzle |

Storage & handling
Store CreatBot ABS Filament in a cool, dry place inside its original sealed bag with the desiccant. For long-term storage or humid environments, use a dry box between prints — moisture absorption shows up as surface roughness, popping, and weaker layer adhesion.

Common questions
Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.
What print settings work best with CreatBot ABS Filament?
CreatBot ABS Filament prints well at 240–260°C nozzle and 80–100°C bed temperature, with the cooling fan off or on low to prevent warping and delamination. Print speeds of 20–80 mm/s are typical. The datasheet included with every spool lists the exact conditions verified on a CreatBot F430 (250°C nozzle, 90°C bed, 40 mm/s, 0.2mm layers) as a starting point for dialing in your own machine.
Does CreatBot ABS Filament need an enclosure or heated chamber?
An enclosure isn't strictly required, but ABS is prone to warping and layer splitting on open-frame printers, especially on larger parts. A heated chamber around 50°C (or off) helps control cooling rate and reduces corner lift. For tall or wide parts, running CreatBot ABS Filament in an enclosed printer or a draft-free room with the bed at the higher end of the 80–100°C range gives more consistent results than an open desktop machine.
How should I store CreatBot ABS Filament to prevent moisture issues?
Keep CreatBot ABS Filament sealed in its original bag with the desiccant packet until you're ready to print, in a cool, dry location. ABS is less hygroscopic than nylon or PETG, but extended exposure to humid air still causes surface roughness, popping, and reduced layer adhesion. For long-term storage or humid climates, transfer the spool to a dry box between prints rather than leaving it uncovered on the printer.
Can CreatBot ABS Filament be sanded, painted, or vapor-smoothed after printing?
Yes. CreatBot ABS Filament is one of the more post-processing-friendly engineering filaments — parts can be sanded, primed and painted, glued with standard adhesives, or vapor-smoothed with acetone for a glossy, layer-free finish. This makes it a common choice when a printed part needs to look like an injection-molded part, not just function like one. PETG and nylon parts don't respond the same way to acetone vapor.
How does CreatBot ABS Filament compare to ASA or PETG in your catalog?
CreatBot ABS Filament and ASA share similar mechanical properties, but ASA adds UV and outdoor weathering resistance that ABS doesn't have — choose ASA for parts that will see sunlight. PETG prints easier (less warping, no enclosure needed) and has better chemical resistance, but is softer and less heat-resistant than ABS's 78°C HDT. If your part needs sanding, gluing, or acetone vapor smoothing for a finished look, ABS is the better starting point of the three.
Is CreatBot ABS Filament compatible with printers other than the CreatBot F430?
Yes — CreatBot ABS Filament is a standard 1.75mm ABS spool and runs on any FDM/FFF printer capable of a nozzle up to 260°C and a heated bed to 100°C. The validated profile included with every order is tuned for the CreatBot F430, but it's a reasonable starting point for other machines; expect to fine-tune retraction and cooling for your specific hotend and frame.
Can I order a trial spool of CreatBot ABS Filament, or is a purchase order available?
A single 1kg spool of CreatBot ABS Filament is available to order directly online for evaluation before you commit to volume. For larger orders or an official purchase order, contact our materials team — we handle bulk quotes and PO-based ordering for engineering and procurement teams that need it.
