Bambu Lab PA6‑GF Gray 1 kg

Bambu Lab PA6‑GF Gray 1 kg – High-Strength Nylon with Glass Fibers

Bambu Lab PA6‑GF Gray is a premium glass fiber reinforced nylon filament, developed for professional and industrial use. It combines high mechanical strength, stiffness, temperature resistance, and dimensional stability, making it ideal for functional and structural parts subjected to high loads.

Glass fiber reinforced PA6 significantly reduces deformation and warping compared to conventional nylons and maintains stable dimensions even for larger and complex prints.

Main Advantages and Applications

• Nylon 6 with Glass Fibers (PA6‑GF) – technical filament for demanding applications
• High strength, stiffness, and fatigue resistance
• Excellent dimensional stability – less prone to warping than standard PA
• High temperature resistance – suitable for parts in warmer environments
• Good chemical resistance to common operating fluids
• Smooth print surface and precise filament diameter
• Optimized for printing on Bambu Lab printers (X1, P1, X1E, etc.)

Typical Applications:

• functional parts and prototypes for industry and automotive
• fixtures, fixations, brackets, clamping tools
• construction and structural parts, housings, covers
• components exposed to higher temperatures and mechanical stress

Material Properties (Typical Values)

• Base material: PA6 (nylon 6) reinforced with glass fibers
• Density: approx. 1.14 g/cm³
• Strength and stiffness: high, suitable for structural parts
• Glass transition (Tg): approx. 67 °C
• Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT): up to around 180 °C (depending on load)
• Excellent dimensional stability due to glass fiber content
• Lower warping susceptibility than standard PA

Note: To achieve maximum toughness and dimensional stability, it is recommended to keep the filament dry and operate finished parts in environments corresponding to the manufacturer's recommended conditions.

Recommended Print Settings

Values may vary slightly depending on the specific printer, nozzle, and part geometry. We always recommend fine-tuning according to your conditions.

• Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
• Recommended nozzle type: hardened / reinforced steel (abrasive material)
• Not recommended: 0.2 mm nozzle, standard stainless steel nozzle
• Recommended nozzle diameter: 0.4–0.6 mm (0.6 mm preferred for longer life and flow stability)

Print Temperatures (orientational):

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 260–290 °C
• Bed temperature: approx. 80–100 °C
• Max. recommended print speed: up to around 120–130 mm/s (depending on detail and specific printer)

Other Recommendations:

• printing in a closed print chamber significantly improves print stability
• use calibrated first layer pressure and a suitable adhesive (glue, spray, special surface)
• store the filament dry and dry before printing if necessary

Compatibility

• Type: filament with spool
