Enhanced Strength and Stiffness
Bambu Lab ABS-GF is an ABS filament reinforced with glass fibres, which improves both mechanical and aesthetic features. ABS-GF performs better than ordinary ABS in terms of strength, stiffness, temperature resistance, and dimensional stability. It is also less likely to distort or warp. Layer lines are blurred by the glass fiber’s micro-spot shine and smooth matte finish. The water resistance, durability, and vivid colours of ABS-GF make it perfect for both mechanical parts and decorations.
ABS-GF outclasses regular ABS in strength and stiffness, making it perfect for load-bearing and bending-resistance parts.
| ABS | ABS-GF | Improvement % | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stiffness (Bending Modulus-XY) | 1880 MPa | 2860 MPa | 52.1% |
| Strength (Bending Strength-XY) | 64 MPa | 68 MPa | 6.3% |
| Layer Strength (Bending Strength-Z) | 39 MPa | 46 MPa | 17.9% |
| Heat Resistance (HDT, 0.45 MPa) | 87 °C | 99 °C | 13.8% |
Greater Dimensional Stability
Compared to ordinary ABS, ABS-GF has greater dimensional stability thanks to glass fibre reinforcement, which reduces warping and deformation during printing. This makes it perfect for geometric components or complex mechanical assembly pieces.
Fine Matte Finish
The seamless matte finish, coupled with nearly invisible layer lines, gives ABS-GF a smooth appearance, making it ideal for decorative and fine-grained parts.
Water Resistance & Built to Last
With improved water resistance and durability, Bambu ABS-GF is ideal for printing long-lasting production and household items, like mechanical casings, connectors and molds.
