Bambu Lab PPA-CF Filament - Black 750g (With Spool)
Bambu PPA-CF is a high-quality, fiber-reinforced nylon designed for industrial-grade printing. Known for its strong mechanical properties and dependable performance, especially in humid or high-temperature conditions, it’s perfect for engineering projects like mechanical prototypes and automotive parts. Bambu PPA-CF is also widely compatible with different printers, making it a top choice for professional engineers. Bring your designs to life with Bambu PPA-CF.
PPA-CF is a filament with strength close to that of metal, being 48% stronger and 102% stiffer than standard PA6-CF. Its outstanding mechanical properties make it ideal for high-performance engineering projects. Perfect for repairs, it’s a durable and reliable replacement for automotive and industrial parts.
Achieve precise results with Bambu PPA-CF. Its excellent dimensional stability ensures that your high-precision prototypes match your design perfectly, with no warping or deformation. Count on PPA-CF for accuracy in every project.
Bambu PPA-CF is built for long-term stability in humid environments, even underwater. With a moisture absorption rate 66% lower than standard PA6-CF, it retains its stiffness and thermal properties over time. Whether you're printing propellers, customizing surfboards, or working on other water-resistant projects, PPA-CF ensures reliable performance.
Bambu PPA-CF offers exceptional heat resistance, enduring temperatures up to 227°C without losing its strength or performance. This filament is ideal for industrial, mechanical, or automotive parts that need to withstand extreme heat, ensuring reliability in even the harshest environments.
Compatible with a variety of printers, Bambu PPA-CF works with P1S, X1C, and X1E models. You need is an enclosed printer and a hardened steel nozzle. It prints smoothly at nozzle temperatures between 280°C and 310°C.
This fillament requires drying before use. We recommend the Polydryer by Polymaker.

Printing Tips
Drying Recommendations:
- Drying Temperature: 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.
Annealing Prints:
- If you need to anneal the prints, please refer to the Technical Data Sheet in our 'Downloads' section.
Interface Layer:
- To prevent the filament from damaging the printing surface and to promote model adhesion, apply a thin coat of glue stick for best results.
Additional Information: For more details, refer to Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.

PALLETS DON'T SHIP VIA DPD - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Some units can only be shipped safely on a pallet due to weight and/or size. Cut off time for orders shipping by pallet is 1.30pm, that’s because we need to book the job before 2pm.
Pallets are big and they ship on big lorries! If there is any problem with a dustbin-lorry size vehicle accessing your property, you need to let us know and we can request delivery by a smaller 7.5T lorry. If this is the case, then PALLET NEXT DAY may not be available.
Depending on your postcode your options at checkout will include PALLET NEXT DAY, PALLET 2-3 DAYS, PALLET COLLECTION HG4 2RN (organise your own pick-up). Some postcodes will show “PALLET 5-6 DAYS” etc.
Pallet deliveries are between 09.00 and 17.00 and we are unable to give you the ETA in advance.
We use a very reliable local supplier, and the pallets go in to the “Palletforce” network. Currently the network don’t use tracking numbers and you can't track online (coming in 2026). Call or email us to check on a delivery or collection.
