Bambu Lab ABS Filament

87°C Heat Deflection | High Impact Resistance | Water-Resistant | 1KG RFID Spool

The engineering filament for parts that have to work. Bambu ABS is stronger than PLA and PETG, holds its shape to an 87°C heat deflection temperature, and resists water, UV and repeated impacts. Bambu tuned the formula to reduce the warping and cracking classic ABS is known for, while keeping outstanding toughness and good flow for high-speed printing. Requires an enclosed printer.

Key Features of Bambu Lab ABS


Strong & Durable - Built for Functional Parts

Functional parts printed in Bambu Lab ABS - pipe connectors, brackets and mounts

As one of the most widely used engineering filaments, Bambu ABS brings mechanical properties that make it stronger than normal PLA and PETG. It is ideal for functional parts, prototypes and standard engineering components - brackets, connectors, enclosures and jigs that need to keep working, not just look good on a shelf.

  • Tensile 33 ± 3 MPa · Bending 62 ± 4 MPa.
  • Young's modulus 2200 ± 190 MPa - stiff and dimensionally stable.
  • Ideal for functional parts, prototypes and engineering components.

Impressive Heat Resistance - 87°C HDT

Heat deflection temperature comparison - PLA 57°C, PETG 69°C, ABS 87°C

Bambu ABS holds its shape to a heat deflection temperature of 87°C - far beyond PLA (57°C) and PETG (69°C). That makes it the right choice for parts that live somewhere warm: car interiors, enclosures around electronics, tooling near heat sources, or anything left in the Indian summer sun.

  • Heat deflection: 87°C at 0.45 MPa (84°C at 1.8 MPa).
  • Vicat softening temperature: 94°C.
  • Outperforms PLA (57°C) and PETG (69°C) on heat.

Water-Resistant & UV-Resistant

ABS boasts excellent water resistance - just 0.65% saturated water absorption - so parts stay durable in damp and outdoor conditions where other filaments swell or degrade. Combined with its UV resistance, it is well suited to bathroom fittings, garden and outdoor hardware, and anything that lives outside the workshop.

  • Saturated water absorption: just 0.65% (25°C, 55% RH).
  • Insoluble in water; resistant to acids and alkalis.
  • UV-resistant - holds up outdoors.

Tough with High Impact Resistance

Bambu Lab ABS printed hinge - tough, high impact resistance

Bambu ABS is exceptionally robust: prints withstand repeated impacts, collisions and falls, and it keeps good impact resistance even at low temperatures. Bambu also tuned this formula to reduce the warping and cracking generic ABS is notorious for, while its good flow behaviour suits high-speed printing.

  • Impact strength: 39.3 ± 3.6 kJ/m² (21.5 kJ/m² notched).
  • Good impact resistance even at low temperatures.
  • Reduced warping and cracking versus generic ABS.

Tips for Best Results


01

Use an Enclosed Printer

ABS needs an enclosure - a stable 45-60°C chamber is what stops layers from cooling too fast and cracking. Open-frame printers will struggle with anything but the smallest parts.

02

Print in a Ventilated Space

ABS releases pungent, unpleasant odours while printing. Keep the printer in a well-ventilated area, ideally with a filter or extraction.

03

Beat Warping with Glue & Heat

Glue the plate (Engineering, High Temperature or Textured PEI), run the bed at 80-100°C, and slow the print down. Avoid very large parts or high infill density - both make warping worse.

04

Dry Before Use

Drying conditions: 80°C for 8 hours in a blast drying oven, or 90-100°C for 12 hours on an X1 heatbed. Store sealed with desiccant below 20% RH.

05

Check Your AMS

The RFID spool works with AMS 2 Pro, AMS HT and the original AMS - but ABS is NOT compatible with AMS lite. Avoid the Cool Plate SuperTack; use a Smooth or Textured PEI plate instead.

Frequently Asked Questions


Do I need an enclosed printer for ABS?
Yes. ABS needs a stable warm chamber (45-60°C) to stop parts warping and cracking as they cool. An enclosure is required - open-frame printers will only manage very small parts, if at all.
How is ABS different from PLA and PETG?
ABS is the engineering choice: stronger than both, with a heat deflection temperature of 87°C versus PLA at 57°C and PETG at 69°C, plus far better impact resistance (39.3 kJ/m²) and water/UV resistance. The trade-off is that it needs an enclosure, smells while printing, and is more prone to warping.
What temperatures should I print Bambu ABS at?
Nozzle 240-270°C, bed 80-100°C, chamber 45-60°C, and printing speed under 300 mm/s. Use glue on an Engineering, High Temperature or Textured PEI plate.
Is it compatible with the AMS?
It works with AMS 2 Pro, AMS HT and the original AMS. It is NOT compatible with AMS lite. The 1KG spool is a high-temperature reusable spool with RFID, so print parameters load automatically.
How do I stop ABS from warping?
Use an enclosure, glue the build plate properly, run a higher bed temperature (80-100°C) and lower the print speed. Also avoid very large parts or high infill density - both increase internal stress and make warping worse.
Does it really smell?
Yes - ABS releases pungent odours while printing. Keep the printer in a well-ventilated area, ideally with an enclosure and a filter or extraction system.
