TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is a versatile 3D printing filament known for its flexibility and strength. It combines the properties
of rubber and plastic, offering high elasticity, excellent abrasion resistance, and durability. TPU prints at a temperature range
of 210°C to 230°C and is ideal for creating flexible parts like gaskets, seals, and wearable items. Its resilience and ability
to withstand stress make TPU a popular choice for functional prototypes and end-use parts that require flexibility and robustness.
TPU is highly flexible and stretchy compare to PLA, ABS, and PETG, which are more rigid. TPU is resistant to abrasion, oils, and greases, giving it excellent durability for high-wear applications. TPU is often used for products that need to be both durable and flexible, whereas other filaments are typically used for more rigid and structural parts.
