Industrial-Grade Precision
Achieve industrial-grade precision with Bambu PPA-CF. Its superior dimensional stability ensures that your high-precision prototypes match your design drawings exactly, without warping or deformation. Rely on PPA-CF for the accuracy you need in every project.
Stable Performance in Humid Conditions
Bambu PPA-CF supports long-term, stable use in humid environments, even underwater. With a moisture absorption rate 66% lower than normal PA6-CF, it maintains its stiffness and thermal properties over time. Whether printing propellers, customizing surfboards, or any other water-resistant application, PPA-CF delivers reliable performance.
Unmatched Performance Under High Temperatures
Bambu PPA-CF boasts unmatched heat resistance, capable of withstanding prolonged exposure to temperatures up to 227°C without compromising its structural integrity or performance. This filament remains reliable and robust in extreme environments, making it perfect for industrial, mechanical, or automotive parts that must tolerate ultra-high temperatures.
Compatible with a Wide Range of Printers
Bambu PPA-CF is compatible with P1S, X1C, and X1E printers, requiring only an enclosure and a hardened steel nozzle. This filament is easier to use than you might think, printing smoothly at nozzle temperatures between 280°C and 310°C. Expand your possibilities with Bambu PPA-CF.

Printing Tips
Drying Recommendations:
In a blast drying oven: 100°C to 140°C for 8 to 12 hours.
On an X1 printer's heatbed: 110°C to 120°C for 10 to 12 hours (less effective than a blast drying oven).
-
Important Note: Higher temperatures within the drying range yield better results, but do not exceed 160°C to avoid damaging the spool.
Storage Tips:
-
Storage Condition: To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing.
