TL;DR Flexible filament with rubber-like properties. Shore 95A hardness: bends, stretches, bounces back. Direct-drive printer required. Black, 1 kg spool, 1.75 mm.
Probably the best filament on the planet. The filament that bends instead of breaks. Magic Filament™ TPU opens up an entirely different category of prints: phone cases, gaskets, watch straps, shock absorbers, custom grips. Anywhere you'd otherwise need rubber, silicone, or a flexible plastic moulding.

What flexible filament unlocks
Rigid filaments (PLA, PET-G, ABS) build solid shapes. TPU builds things that need to move, flex, grip, or absorb impact. Custom phone cases that fit your phone exactly and survive drops. Gaskets that seal between two surfaces. Watch straps that bend with your wrist. Tool handles with grippy texture. RC tires with traction. Door stoppers that don't damage floors. These are the parts you cannot print in PLA, and TPU is the easiest flexible filament to start with.
Shore 95A, the practical middle ground
TPU hardness is measured on the Shore A scale: 70A is gummy bear soft, 100A is hard rubber. Our TPU is 95A, firm but flexible, like a phone case or a stiff shoe sole. It bends and stretches, but holds its shape and doesn't deform under light load. This is the sweet spot for most flexible prints: stiff enough to actually print well, soft enough to flex meaningfully.
⚙️
Important: TPU requires a direct-drive extruder
TPU is too flexible to be reliably pushed through a bowden tube. Direct-drive printers only: Bambu A1, Prusa MK3S+/MK4, Voron, Sovol SV07, Creality K1, and others with direct extrusion. Bowden setups will jam or under-extrude.

| Bed temperature |

| Print speed |
20–50 mm/s (faster = under-extrusion, gaps) |
| Travel speed |
reduce to 150 mm/s max |
| Cooling fan |
30–60% |
| Retraction |
minimal, 0.4–0.8 mm at 25 mm/s. Too much retraction causes blobs. |
| Acceleration |
reduce to 500–1000 mm/s² for cleaner prints |
| Bed adhesion |
PEI sheet or glue stick, TPU sticks well to most surfaces |
| Drying (mandatory if humid) |
50 °C for 6 hours, TPU absorbs moisture quickly |
Pro tip: TPU's #1 enemy is moisture. If your prints feel mushy or bubble, dry the filament. Even fresh from the package, drying for 4 hours improves print quality noticeably.
