Greater Dimensional Stability
Bambu Lab ABS-GF provides exceptional dimensional stability, minimizing warping and deformation during the printing process. This feature makes it superior to regular ABS, especially for intricate designs and precise mechanical parts, as the glass fiber reinforcement ensures consistent and reliable print quality.
- Reduces warping during printing
- Ideal for complex geometries
- Ensures precise fit and function
Improved Water Resistance
Bambu Lab ABS-GF offers superior water resistance compared to regular ABS, making it ideal for applications exposed to moisture or humid environments. This enhanced property ensures that printed parts maintain their integrity and performance over time, even in challenging conditions.
- Resists moisture absorption
- Suitable for outdoor use
- Maintains strength in humid environments
Ideal for High-Stress Applications
Bambu Lab ABS-GF's fine matte finish not only enhances the visual appeal but also contributes to the structural integrity of printed parts. This finish reduces surface imperfections and stress concentrations compared to regular ABS, resulting in stronger, more reliable components that are both aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound.
- Reduces surface imperfections
- Enhances structural integrity
- Ideal for high-stress applications

Questions
is this product fiber filled and require a harden nozzle?
What is the difference between White and Paper White?
How does this compare to PLA+?
How does this compare to PETG for crack resistance?
How resistant is this stuff to flattening/grinding in the extruder? I've got an Ender 3 v2 and I'm having trouble printing some D&D stuff because there's just too many retractions. After a while, the filament I'm using (some bargain basement stuff) flattens, stops feeding, and then starts grinding. It's *really* annoying. I've also tried most of the usual fixes, but none seem to work. Would this be a suitable alternative?
