Bambu Lab PA6-GF Additional Resources: Technical Datasheet   Highlights: Main Features Built to Last Dimensional Stability Exceptional Thermal Properties Chemical Resistance Smooth Surface and More Colors Diameter: 1.75mm +/- 0.03mm   Bambu PA6-GF, also known as Nylon 6 with Glass Fiber, stands at the forefront of high-performance engineering plastics. Engineered to deliver exceptional strength, durability, dimensional stability. The PA6-GF is also more cost effective when compared to other top tier engineering filaments. Bambu PA6-GF is exceptionally strong and durable due to reinforced glass fibers, making it the perfect choice for prints that need to withstand heavy use and resist bending or breaking. Dimensional Stability PA6-GF boasts unparalleled dimensional stability thanks to its glass fiber reinforcement, minimizing warping in comparison to standard PA filaments. Print with precise dimensions, even in the most intricate geometries. Chemical Resistance PA6-GF offers excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, and many kinds of solvents, ensuring long-term performance in challenging environments. Exceptional Thermal Properties PA6-GF boasts a high heat deflection temperature and superior dimensional stability, enabling it to retain its mechanical properties even under elevated temperatures. This makes it ideal for demanding industrial and automotive applications. Smooth Surface and More Colors Bambu PA6-GF filaments are compatible with the Bambu AMS system, ready to print in multi-color. The special surface texture also blurs the layer lines, providing a smooth surface quality. RFID for Intelligent Printing All printing parameters are embedded in RFID, which can be read through Bambu Lab's AMS (Automatic Material System). Load and print! No more tedious setting steps.   Technical Specifications: PA6-GF Hex Code Table Color Hex Code Display White #EAEAE4 Yellow #FFCE00 Lime #C5ED48 Blue #75AED8 Orange #FF4800 Brown #5B492F Gray #353533 Black #000000   Accessory Compatibility  Recommended Not Recommended Build Plate Smooth PEI Plate, Textured PEI Plate Cool Plate SuperTack Hotend Hotend with Hardened Steel 0.4mm / 0.6mm (recommended) / 0.8 mm Hotend with Stainless Steel Nozzle All Size Glue Bambu Glue Stick Bambu Liquid Glue AMS & AMS lite AMS AMS lite     Recommended Printing Settings Drying Settings before Printing 80 °C, 8 - 12 h Printing and Keeping Container's Humidity < 20% RH (Sealed, with Desiccant) Nozzle Temperature 260 - 290 °C Bed Temperature (with Glue) 80 - 100 °C Printing Speed < 130 mm/s Physical Properties Density 1.14 g/cm³ Vicat Softening Temperature 210 °C Heat Deflection Temperature 182 °C Melting Temperature 219 °C Melt Index 9.0 ± 0.8 g/10 min Mechanical Properties Tensile Strength 75 ± 6 MPa Breaking Elongation Rate 3.9 ± 0.8 % Bending Modulus 3670 ± 140 MPa Bending Strength 120 ± 6 MPa Impact Strength 27.2 ± 2.2 kJ/m²     Special Notes and Considerations: Printing Tips • Bambu PA6-GF needs proper drying before printing: recommended drying temperature is 80 ℃ for 8 to 12 hours in a blast drying oven, or 90 to 100 ℃ for 10 to 12 hours on heat bed. (Do not exceed 100 ℃ because the spool may deform or even melt). For more details, please refer to: Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI. • To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, it is recommended to use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing. For more details, please refer to: Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI. • To minimize warping, avoid printing large-sized high infill density models. Use enclosed printers and ensure the build plate is properly applied with glue for better print adhesion before printing. • For better print results and more details, please refer to: Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.   Post-processing Tips • We recommend removing the support structures within 2 hours after printing to prevent them from sticking after absorbing moisture. If sticking occurs, dry the model to ease the removal. • Placing the printed part in a convection oven set between 80 to 130 degrees Celsius for 5 to 12 hours can further enhance the strength and rigidity of the print. Note: The effectiveness of this process depends on the structure, size, and conditions of the printed model. Some models may warp or deform after annealing.
