Compliance Evidence
⚠ Partially documented – no complete RoHS certificate available. Evidence via manufacturer documentation.
Evidence: Bambu Lab publishes RoHS information in the Material Safety Portal.
⚠ Partially documented – SVHC statement available, but no complete REACH conformity declaration on file.
Evidence: REACH data via the Bambu Material Safety Portal.
The evidence listed applies to the filament or raw material per manufacturer documentation. Regulatory clearance of the printed final product – particularly for food contact, medical devices, electrical applications or UL-relevant parts – is not automatically included and must be evaluated on a project-specific basis. Technical machine assignment is handled internally.

Material Profile
PC-CF combines two proven material concepts: the toughness and heat resistance of polycarbonate with the stiffness gain from short carbon fibers. The result is a composite that exceeds pure PC in stiffness without sacrificing PC’s characteristic impact resistance.
Positioning in the High-Performance Segment
| Material | Tensile strength | HDT | Impact resistance | Transparency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PC | ~60 MPa | ~135 °C | Very high | Possible |
| PC-CF | ~70 MPa | ~145 °C | High | No |
| PA12-CF | ~80–110 MPa | ~175 °C | Medium | No |
PC-CF is the choice when rigid and tough parts up to ~145 °C are needed – PA-CF surpasses it in pure stiffness and temperature, but PC-CF wins for impact-resistant applications.
