Thermoplastic polyurethane

TPU filament Flex, grip, seal.

TPU makes the parts other materials cannot: gaskets that seal, grips that grip, bumpers that survive being dropped. Print it slowly and keep the filament path short.

Grades

The grades in this family.

Print settings and mechanical properties are published per grade. A colour change never alters these numbers.

TPU 95A

The flexible grade that behaves. Firm enough to feed through most extruders at sensible speeds, soft enough to seal a joint and take a hit.

Best for

Gaskets and seals
Grips, feet and bumpers
Cable strain relief

Watch out

Retraction is the enemy. Keep it under 1 mm and print slow before you print pretty.

TPU 85A

Properly soft. It squashes like rubber and springs back, which is the point — and the reason it needs a short, tight filament path and patience.

Best for

Soft-touch overmoulds
Vibration damping mounts
Wearables and prosthetic liners

Watch out

Buckles in the extruder above roughly 20 mm/s. Bowden setups are not worth attempting.

Questions

TPU, answered.

What shore hardness of TPU should I choose?

95A is the workhorse: it prints on almost any direct-drive extruder and still bends. 85A is genuinely soft and squeezes like rubber, but it buckles in the extruder above roughly 20 mm/s. Choose by how much the part must deform, not by how soft it sounds.

Can I print TPU on a Bowden setup?

Yes, with 95A or harder, speeds under 20 mm/s, retraction under 1 mm and a tightly constrained filament path. 85A on Bowden is not worth the attempt.

How do I make a printed TPU gasket seal?

Print it solid with concentric top and bottom layers, use a 0.6 mm nozzle so the extrusion is wider than the leak path, and over-compress by 15–20 % in the assembly. Layer lines are the leak, not the material.
