MakerBot real ABS is a real, production-grade ABS material formulation for creating strong and durable functional prototypes, manufacturing tools, and end-use parts. Unlike desktop ABS material formulations containing damaging modifiers and stabilizers that lead to warping and cracking, this real ABS formulation empowers engineers to achieve part properties close to injection molded parts with high dimensional accuracy, durability, and repeatability. Outpace your competition with better materials and better parts. ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is one of the most common plastics used in injection-molding, found in many common products such as LEGO, computer keys, power-tool housings, and automotive parts.
