TPU Technical Data Sheet

May 25,2023

Product Features

Flexible material with the same elasticity as rubber.

The thinner and less filled the printed model is, the higher elasticity and softness it gets.

Low viscosity, easy to cooling.

Uvioresistant.

Application

Generally used for printing elastic products, suitable for all groups who want to print soft models.

Technical Specification

Filament Diameter: 1.75mm

Tolerance: ±0.05mm

Printing Temperature: 200°C-220°C

Heated Bed Temperature: 0°C-60°C/ without heating

Printing Speed: 15-40mm/s

Shore Hardness: 95A

Shortcomings

TPU is soft material, so the filament can’t be rolled neatly.

The material itself is soft and does not bear any force. It is recommended to use the direct drive extruder to get a good printing experience. The remote extruder can only print normally after modification.

Bowden extruder is difficult to use and requires high level of users.
