Bambu Lab PLA Tough+ Filament
Built to Withstand
Bambu Lab PLA Tough+ delivers the strength and resilience of ABS while retaining the ease of PLA printing. With superior layer adhesion, impressive flexibility, and long-lasting durability, it’s designed for prints that need to perform under real-world conditions.
Key Features of Bambu Lab PLA Tough+ Filament:
- Engineered for Impact: Handles drops, stress, and daily wear with ease
- Exceptional Durability: Resists cracking and fatigue from repeated bending
- Lasting Performance: Maintains strength and toughness over time
- Versatile Application: Perfect for outdoor gear, replacement parts, and durable tools
Tough, Impact-Ready
Bambu Lab PLA Tough+ is engineered for strength, flexibility, and endurance. With up to 2x stronger layer adhesion, it resists drops, impacts, and repeated flexing without cracking. This filament is perfect for parts that demand rigidity and resilience, such as RC cars, model planes, and mechanical tools.
- Strong Layer Bonding: Up to 2x stronger than standard PLA
- Flexible & Resilient: Bends without breaking under stress
- Built to Last: Maintains strength and impact resistance over time

Printing Tips
- Ensure proper ventilation or consider lower printing temperatures to reduce exposure to odors.
- Drying filament at 55°C for 8 hrs before ensures consistent print quality. Find filament dryers here.
- Due to high interlayer strength, using dedicated support filaments (Bambu Support for PLA, Bambu Support for PLA/PETG) allows for easier removal and a cleaner finish.
