Review on Get Precise Results With HATCHBOX TPU 3D Printer Filament - 1Kg Spool, Shore 95A, Silver by Jon Garcia

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality Flexible Filament

I am printing this on a Wanhao Duplicator i3 v2.1 with several modifications.First of all, like many flexible filaments - this does have the possibility of jamming your extruder. I am using a flexible filament adapter extruder plate from thingiverse and the micro-swiss all-metal hotend and I'm not having any issues with jams.currently am printing at 215c first layer 210c after with a basically cold, 30c bed. 1mm retraction at 75mm/sec and printing at a glacial 20mm/sec. TPU likes to print slow. I am still dialing in my settings.There are some stringing issues, the stuff gets very very sticky when hot. But, it's good stuff. Getting overall good prints. It's not PLA, don't expect it to print like PLA, but if you understand the material properties, it's quite good.
