Bambu Lab PC FR – UL 94-2023 V-0 Flame-Retardant Polycarbonate Filament

Excellent strength and durability

Bambu Lab PC (Polycarbonate) is a high-performance filament with exceptional strength, toughness, and heat resistance. Thanks to outstanding mechanical stability and hardness, it is ideal for functional prototypes, mechanical parts, and structural components that require high strength and impact resistance.

High heat resistance

Bambu Lab PC maintains its structural integrity even at extreme temperatures. With a heat deflection temperature (HDT) up to 113 °C, it is suitable for parts exposed to high temperatures, such as motor covers, electronic enclosures, and industrial components.

Great dimensional stability

Thanks to its stiffness and low warping, PC filament is suitable for precise engineering parts and mechanically stressed components. This material minimizes shrinkage and enables printing of large models with high accuracy.

Excellent clarity and wear resistance

Bambu Lab PC not only offers excellent mechanical properties but also high optical clarity. This makes it suitable for transparent covers, light diffusers, and durable protective panels. Due to its hardness, it shows high resistance to scratching and wear.

Recommended applications

• Industrial components

• Mechanical parts and housings

• High-temperature applications

• Durable structural parts

• Light diffusers and protective panels

Printing tips

•Drying is crucial – PC readily absorbs moisture, which can cause print defects. Dry thoroughly before printing.

•Use an enclosed printer – printing PC requires a stable ambient temperature to minimize shrinkage and warping.

•Prepare the build plate well – for better adhesion, apply Bambu Liquid Glue or use a textured PEI plate.
