Properties
This Shore 85A TPU combines hydrolysis resistance, flexibility at low temperature, resistance to microbiological attack, tensile strength, damping behaviour, and resistance to wear, abrasion and slipping.
These properties make it a suitable material for applications in sport and leisure, automotive, industrial manufacturing, agriculture and construction.
Printing behaviour and drying
Ultrafuse TPU 85A prints at a temperature between 200 and 220 °C, on a glass bed at 40 °C. It can be printed without prior oven drying, but the manufacturer recommends drying at 70 °C for 2 to 8 hours in a hot-air dryer to limit stringing, or at 80 °C for 5 hours in a vacuum oven for optimal printing and the best mechanical properties.
This filament prints on most 3D printers; particular attention is however required regarding the filament drive system, which must be suited to flexible materials.
