What is an SBSAR file?

SBSAR files mostly belong to Substance by Adobe. A SBSAR file is a 3D materials archive created using Substance Designer, a 3D materials authoring and editing tool. An SBSAR file is the compiled version of SBS files which are ready for publishing. The contents of SBSAR files include 3D materials such as glass, metal, wood, iron, concrete information optimized to save only 3D data required to render data. 3D programs that can open SBSAR files include Substance Designer, Maya, CATIA, Cinema 4D, Blender etc. SBSAR files also allow designers to tweak material data such as roughness and color.
