Bambu PC FR — Flame-Retardant Engineering-Grade Polycarbonate
High Strength • UL94 V-0 Certified • Heat & Impact Resistant
Overview
Bambu PC FR is an advanced flame-retardant polycarbonate designed for industrial and engineering applications where safety and performance are critical. It combines UL 94 V-0 certification, excellent mechanical strength, and thermal stability, making it ideal for high-temperature or electrically sensitive environments like electronics housings, machinery enclosures, and automotive components.
Key Features
• UL 94 V-0 flame rating – self-extinguishing within 10 seconds; prevents flame spread.
• High toughness & stiffness comparable to PAHT-CF for demanding parts.
• Superior heat resistance – performs reliably up to 113 °C HDT.
• Excellent impact resistance – withstands mechanical stress without cracking.
• RFID enabled – automatic printer settings via AMS for effortless setup.

Printing Tips
-
Always dry before use to prevent bubbling and layer separation.
-
Store in an airtight container with desiccant when not in use.
-
Ensure good ventilation — PC FR prints at high temperatures.
