Bambu Lab PA6-CF — Carbon-Fiber Nylon for Tough, Functional Prints High Strength • Heat-Resistant • Dimensional Stability Built for real work. PA6-CF blends nylon with carbon fiber to deliver rigid, heat-resistant parts that hold tolerances under load. Great for fixtures, mounts, brackets, and mechanical components where reliability matters. Why you need it • Stiff, strong, stable: Carbon fiber reinforcement for load-bearing parts• Heat ready: Resists softening in warm environments and enclosures• Matte, professional finish: Minimal cleanup, parts look “production”• Low warp when dry: Consistent results with correct prep and drying Compatibility & usage guide • Printers: Enclosure recommended for best layer bonding• Nozzle: Hardened steel or tungsten carbide (abrasive filament)• Not compatible: 0.2 mm nozzle; stainless nozzles not recommended• Build plates (use glue): Smooth PEI, Textured PEI• Not recommended: Cool Plate SuperTack• AMS: Not compatible — run from a dry box or external holder Recommended settings (starting point):• Nozzle: 260–290 °C• Bed: 80–100 °C (with adhesive)• Speed: ≤ 100 mm/s• Drying: 80 °C for 8–12 h before use; keep < 20 % RH while printing• Support removal: Best within ~2 h after printing Technical specs (reference values) • Heat Deflection Temp (0.45 MPa): ~186 °C• Vicat Softening Temp: ~212 °C• Melting Temp: ~223 °C• Density: ~1.09 g/cm³• Melt Flow Index: ~6.8 ± 0.6 g/10 min• Tensile Strength: ~102 ± 7 MPa• Elongation at Break: ~5.8 ± 1.6 %• Flexural Modulus: ~5460 ± 280 MPa• Flexural Strength: ~151 ± 8 MPa• Impact Strength (XY): ~40.3 ± 2.5 kJ/m² What’s in the box • 1 × PA6-CF filament spool (1.75 mm ± 0.03 mm)• High-temperature reusable spool + desiccant (resealable packaging) Setup tips • Dry thoroughly; nylon drinks moisture fast.• Use a glue layer to control adhesion and protect PEI.• Shop tip: Clean plates with blue Dawn dish soap + hot water, towel dry. Avoid IPA on textured PEI to preserve long-term grip. Notes • Mechanical behavior shifts with moisture—keep filament and parts dry when stiffness and dimensional accuracy are critical.• Abrasive: expect accelerated wear on soft/brass nozzles.• Warm enclosure improves layer adhesion and surface quality. Local advantages (Convoy-Westcan / Winnipeg) • Same-day or next-business-day dispatch when in stock (after processing)• Winnipeg: free local courier on eligible filament orders over $60• In-store pickup available; practical advice from active users Policy snapshot Filaments and consumables are final sale. Approved returns on other items must be brand new and unopened; restocking fees and non-refundable shipping may apply. See our Refund & Return Policy for details.
