Suited for

  • Supports under temperature
  • Parts in engine compartments
  • Economical alternative to PA6-CF

Watch out for

  • Absorbs moisture (2.56 %) and loses stiffness in humid environments
  • Low interlayer adhesion (Z = 27 MPa)

Chemistry

Resists oils and greases; does not resist acids and alkalis.

Frequently asked questions

What people usually ask about PA6-GF.

Still have a question? Message us on WhatsApp

How heat-resistant is PA6-GF?
HDT is 182 °C at 0.45 MPa and 158 °C at 1.8 MPa (ISO 75), measured on specimens with 100 % infill, according to the official Bambu Lab data sheet. It is a reference value for comparing materials: the real part varies with orientation, infill and wall thickness.
Is PA6-GF kept in stock?
No. It is an engineering material on request: we buy the lot for your order, and the minimum volume depends on the material and the size of the part. The lead time includes purchasing and drying the material, added to the normal production lead time of 24 h to 96 h.
How is PA6-GF printed?
Only with a hardened nozzle: carbon and glass fibres wear down a brass nozzle. The process is nozzle at 260–290 °C, bed at 80–100 °C and chamber at 45–60 °C. The filament is oven-dried (80 °C · 8–12 h) before printing and stored below 20 % RH.
What are the limits of PA6-GF?
Absorbs moisture (2.56 %) and loses stiffness in humid environments. Low interlayer adhesion (Z = 27 MPa).
Are the PA6-GF values guaranteed?
No. Real parts vary with orientation, infill, wall thickness and material condition, and the values are not guaranteed or certified. For critical applications (safety, structural load, food contact or medical use), validate the part in your application before series production.
