ApolloX
ApolloX is a professional high-performance engineering filament, which is based on a uniquely industrial-grade modified ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) compound. ApolloX has been modified to have great thermal stability, improved filament flowing behavior, zero-warping and flawless first- and interlayer adhesion allowing you to 3D print objects with an almost injection-molded precision. ApolloX is UV and weather resistant and by that ensuring great color stability – combined with high strength and heat resistant properties – which makes ApolloX a perfect engineering filament for outdoor and automotive applications.
