Bambu Lab PA6-CF is a high-performance engineering filament based on PA6 nylon reinforced with carbon fiber, designed for printing strong, rigid, and heat-resistant parts. The material offers excellent mechanical strength, dimensional stability, and wear resistance, making it ideal for demanding functional applications.
Carbon fiber reinforcement provides low shrinkage, strong layer adhesion, and increased stiffness compared to standard nylon filaments. PA6-CF is optimized for Bambu Lab 3D printers and is compatible with AMS when properly dried and stored in a dry environment.
