TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is a subclass of thermoplastics which prints strong parts that are also flexible. Compatible with printers on the market that accept 3 mm filament. Including Lutzbot, Ultimaker 3D printers. With bowden extruder needs to print slowly, excellent adhesion on heat bed, not neccessary for extra adhesion like tape. With proper settings, TPU is easy to print thanks to excellent bed adhesion and the filament's tendency to not warp. Resist to oil, grease and etc. Duarable performance even in chemical harsh environment. Great for a variety of projects, such as shoe insoles, watch bands, phone cases, drone parts and more!.

Works like a Dexcom CGM cap!

I used this to print a cover for my Dexcom CGM and it turned out really great! It is a very malleable material like rubber. It fits around the edges fairly well but doesn't have any rough edges after printing.

Pros
  • Compatible with commercial printers that accept 3mm filament. Including Lutzbot, Ultimaker 3D printer. Bowden extruder should print slowly, excellent adhesion to the heatbed, no need for extra adhesion like tape.
Cons
  • No automatically

Great as always

With this we compare all other TPUs. it works, prints to multiple printers and is consistent. I use it on Makerselect Plus and Prusa Mk3. Both print well. Minimal lines and helps remove jelly from GoPro frames.

Pros
  • Great for a variety of projects like shoe inserts, watch bands, phone cases, drone parts and more!
Cons
  • Not sure

Wedging due to larger than expected diameter

The diameter of my roll was well above the specified tolerance of 0.05mm, 3.21mm was the highest I could find. If you expect jamming, check the filament diameter, you might not be. If my printer toolkit was more forgiving, this probably wouldn't be an issue.

Pros
  • TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is a subclass of thermoplastics that prints strong parts that are also flexible.
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
