China Flexible 3D filament TPU blue 1.75mm Shore A 95 Manufacturers, Factory

TPU filament is made by mixing rubber and plastic that is hard which turns it to be highly durable. It has advantages such as resistance to abrasion, ability to perform at low temperature, elasticity, and mechanical properties along with rubber-like elasticity. Widely used in FDM printing because of its useful properties. Ideal for prosthetics, costumes, wearables, cell phone cases, and other elastic 3D printed items.

Product Key Features
High Strength & Flexibility

Torwell TPU filament is featured by its high strength and flexibility, acting like a hybrid of plastic and rubber.

High Abrasion Resistance

95A TPU has high abrasion resistance and low compression compared to rubber parts, especially at higher infill settings.

Printing Setup & Guidelines

In comparison with most common filaments like PLA and ABS, TPU must be run much slower. Recommended for printers with direct drive extruder, 0.4~0.8mm Nozzles.

Bowden Extruder Tips
  • Print slow: 20-40 mm/s Printing speed
  • First layer settings: Height 100%, Width 150%, Speed 50% e.g.
  • Retraction disabled: This would reduce messy, stringing or oozing printing results.
  • Increase Multiplier (Optional): Set to 1.1 would help the filament bond well.
  • Cooling fan: Turned on after the first layer.
Important Loading Instructions:
  • If you are having problems printing with soft filaments, firstly, and most importantly, slow the print down; running at 20mm/s will work perfectly.
  • When loading the filament, allow it to only just start extruding. Once you see the filament coming out of the nozzle, hit stop. The load feature pushes filament through quicker than a normal print, which can cause it to get caught in the extruder gear.
  • Feed the filament directly to the extruder, not through the feeder tube. This reduces drag on the filament which can cause the gear to slip.
Packaging & Product Display
Standard Packaging Details

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the main characteristics of Torwell TPU Filament?

Torwell TPU filament combines high strength and flexibility, performing like a hybrid of plastic and rubber. Its 95A hardness grade provides high abrasion resistance and low compression compared to standard rubber parts.

What are the recommended printer configurations for Torwell TPU?

It is best recommended for 3D printers with direct drive extruders and 0.4~0.8mm nozzles. Drying settings are recommended at 65˚C for 8 hours before printing.

How should I adjust settings when using a Bowden extruder?

For Bowden extruders: print slowly at 20-40 mm/s, disable retraction to reduce stringing/oozing, turn on the cooling fan after the first layer, set first layer height to 100% / width 150% / speed 50%, and optionally set the multiplier to 1.1.

How do I avoid filament jamming in the extruder gear during loading?

When loading, stop as soon as the filament starts extruding from the nozzle. Additionally, feed the filament directly into the extruder rather than through the feeder tube to prevent drag and gear slippage.

What 3D printer brands are compatible with Torwell TPU filament?

It is compatible with Makerbot, UP, Felix, Reprap, Ultimaker, Ender3, Creality3D, Raise3D, Prusa i3, Zortrax, XYZ Printing, Omni3D, Snapmaker, BIQU3D, BCN3D, MK3, AnkerMaker, and any other FDM 3D printers.

How is Torwell TPU filament packaged?

Each spool comes in a vacuum-sealed plastic bag with desiccant, placed in an individual box (Torwell, Neutral, or Customized box). They are shipped 8 boxes per carton (carton size 44x44x19cm).
