Description
Bambu ASA Aero – Self-Foaming Lightweight ASA Material
Bambu ASA Aero is a self-foaming ASA material designed to produce lightweight printed parts. Its heat-sensitive foaming behavior allows the internal density of the printed model to be reduced during printing. In addition to its lightweight characteristics, the material also maintains good durability and environmental resistance, including stability against temperature, water, and UV exposure. These properties make it suitable for outdoor models and weight-sensitive applications such as RC aircraft components.
Impact Resistance & Built for Durable Prints
Compared with many other foaming filaments, ASA Aero offers stronger layer bonding and improved toughness. This helps printed parts better withstand impact, collision, and repeated mechanical stress. The material structure is designed to maintain strength even when the model weight is reduced, making it suitable for functional components that may experience physical stress during use.
| Filament Type | Bambu ASA Aero | Bambu PLA Aero | Wood PLA |
| Toughness (Impact Strength – XY) | 32.0 kJ/m² | 24.5 kJ/m² | 7.9 kJ/m² |
| Layer Adhesion (Impact Strength – Z, Dry State) | 3.4 kJ/m² | 2.5 kJ/m² | 1.1 kJ/m² |
| Layer Strength (Bending Strength – Z) | 24 MPa | 15 MPa | 15 MPa |
Ultra-Lightweight Printing with Controllable Density
ASA Aero can produce printed parts that are significantly lighter than standard ASA prints. In typical conditions, the density of ASA Aero prints can be around 50%–75% of regular ASA, allowing weight reductions of up to about 45%. The final density can be adjusted through printing parameters, such as increasing nozzle temperature or lowering the extrusion flow rate, which activates the material’s foaming behavior during printing.

The actual required flow rate ratio and final model density may vary depending on the geometry and size of the printed model.
Suitable for Outdoor and Harsh Environments
ASA Aero retains the environmental resistance characteristics of standard ASA materials. Compared with PLA-based foaming materials, it provides better resistance to heat, water exposure, and ultraviolet light. These properties allow ASA Aero printed parts to be used in outdoor environments or applications where long-term environmental exposure may occur.
Matte Surface Finish for Coloring
Printed parts made with Bambu ASA Aero typically produce a matte surface texture. This surface finish can make it easier to apply color treatments such as dyeing or painting. Compared with standard ASA prints, the matte surface can help pigments adhere more evenly to the printed model.

Printing Tips
• Foaming ASA materials (ASA Aero) have high requirements for material drying and parameter settings. Please carefully read ASA Aero Printing Guide before starting the printing process.
• Drying conditions: 80℃ for 8 hrs. ASA Aero is highly sensitive to humidity. To achieve optimal printing performance, it is recommended further drying before use and after storage. For more details, please refer to: Filament Drying Recommendations on WIKI.
• To minimize warping, avoid printing large-sized high infill density models. Use enclosed printers and ensure the build plate is properly applied with glue for better print adhesion before printing. Set lower printing speed and higher heatbed temperature. For more details, please refer to: Common print quality problems and solutions on WIKI.
• Pungent and unpleasant odors may be released during printing. Make sure your printer is placed in a well-ventilated area and use enclosed printers.
