Filament BambuLab PLA-CF 1.75 mm 1 kg with reusable spool — Burgundy Red

BambuLab PLA-CF 1.75 mm is a PLA-based carbon-fiber composite filament supplied on a reusable spool in a Burgundy Red color. Designed for FDM/FFF 3D printers, this 1 kg filament combines the ease of printing associated with PLA with the increased stiffness and improved dimensional stability provided by short carbon fibers. The product is intended for users who need stronger, more rigid printed parts while keeping typical PLA printing temperatures and workflows.

Advantages

This PLA-CF filament offers higher stiffness and better dimensional stability than standard PLA, which helps reduce part deformation and improve mechanical performance. The presence of carbon fibers increases surface rigidity and can enhance layer adhesion under appropriate print settings. The reusable spool reduces waste and simplifies filament handling and storage. The Burgundy Red color provides consistent, repeatable color output suitable for both functional and aesthetic applications.

Suitable for

• Functional prototypes requiring increased rigidity
• Mechanical parts, brackets and housings for low- to moderate-load applications
• Decorative prints where a rigid, matte finish is preferred
• Testing form and fit of assemblies with improved dimensional stability

Key specifications

• Material type: PLA-based carbon-fiber composite
• Diameter: 1.75 mm
• Net filament weight: 1 kg
• Color: Burgundy Red
• Spool: reusable spool included
• Printing technology: compatible with FDM/FFF 3D printers

How to use

Load the filament onto the printer following the manufacturer's filament-loading procedure and secure it on the reusable spool holder. Use printing temperatures and settings recommended for PLA-based composites—start with typical PLA nozzle temperatures and adjust upward if needed to improve extrusion and layer bonding. A hardened steel or abrasion-resistant nozzle is recommended to reduce wear from carbon fibers. Calibrate extrusion multiplier, retraction and print speed to achieve optimal surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Allow printed parts to cool gradually to minimize warping.

Usage recommendations

Use a hardened nozzle, moderate print speeds and appropriate cooling to balance layer adhesion and surface quality. Store the filament in a dry environment or sealed container with desiccant when not in use to preserve printability. Avoid using this filament in applications with high impact or significant long-term flexing as carbon-fiber PLA increases stiffness but is more brittle than standard PLA.
