Phaetus aeWorthy ABS-GF – Glass Fibre Reinforced ABS Filament 1kg
Phaetus aeWorthy ABS-GF is a glass fibre reinforced ABS filament engineered for improved strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability in demanding 3D printing applications. By incorporating approximately 10% chopped glass fibre into ABS, this material delivers enhanced mechanical performance and reduced warping compared to standard ABS.
Designed for functional parts and engineering applications, aeWorthy ABS-GF offers reliable printability, strong layer adhesion, and a professional matte surface finish.
Key Benefits
Enhanced Mechanical Strength and Rigidity
Glass fibre reinforcement increases stiffness and structural integrity, making printed parts more resistant to deformation under load.
Reduced Warping and Shrinkage
Compared to conventional ABS, the glass-filled formulation improves dimensional stability and helps minimise warping during printing.
Improved Impact Resistance
Provides durable parts capable of withstanding mechanical stress and repeated handling.
Matte Surface Finish
Produces a textured, professional-looking surface ideal for functional prototypes and industrial components.
Engineering-Grade Performance
Well-suited for applications requiring stronger, more stable ABS parts with improved reliability.
Technical Overview

Due to the glass fibre content, this material is abrasive and may increase nozzle wear over time. A hardened steel nozzle is recommended for extended use.
Ideal Applications
Phaetus aeWorthy ABS-GF is ideal for mechanical brackets, jigs, fixtures, enclosures, functional prototypes, and structural components requiring improved stiffness and durability. It is particularly suitable for engineering and industrial applications where standard ABS may not provide sufficient strength.
Manufactured by Phaetus, aeWorthy ABS-GF delivers reinforced performance for professional 3D printing environments.
