TPU FLEXIBLE
TPU Flexible Filament in Cyprus
Choose TPU when your print needs to bend, compress or provide a softer contact surface. It is a useful material for grips, protective covers, bumpers and flexible prototypes.
Why Choose TPU Instead of PLA?
PLA produces rigid parts. TPU provides flexibility, making it suitable for designs that would not work well as a hard, stiff print.
The trade-off is feeding and printing behaviour. Flexible filament may need slower speeds and a more carefully controlled filament path than ordinary PLA.
Understanding FLEXIBLE
Compare the product’s Shore hardness: within the same scale, a lower number generally indicates a softer material. Wall thickness and infill also change how flexible the finished part feels.
Check extruder and automatic feeder compatibility, and follow the product’s drying and printing guidance.
