    Stretchy, soft, and sturdy, these filaments make durable parts that resist breakage despite repeated use. Stronger than ABS and PLA filaments, they create long-lasting parts, such as seals, sleeves, and gaskets, as well as components that take on high-impact forces, such as springs and snap-fit parts. These filaments don't require a heated printer bed, and they won't shrink or warp when cooling. Use them with a fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer. In general, these flexible filaments require a slow feed rate so they don't jam. The softer your filament, the slower your feed rate will need to be. Store them in a sealed container with a desiccant, or use a dehumidifying cabinet, since ambient humidity will cause the plastic to degrade and weaken.
    Maximum exposure temperature is the point at which a printed part will begin to deform. Above this temperature, your printed parts will start to lose structural integrity.
    Conductive—Conductive filaments can be used to create circuit prototypes and other conductive pathways. You can adjust the surface resistivity by changing the temperature of your printer's extruder. As the extruder’s temperature increases, the printed part’s resistivity will decrease.
    Durometer 85A—For the most flexible parts, use durometer 85A filaments. They're more flexible than other TPU filaments.
    Durometer 95A—For a quick print without sacrificing flexibility, choose durometer 95A filaments. They print much faster than other TPU filaments.
    Tensile Strength—Tensile strength is the best measure of a filament's overall strength. Similar to the stress applied on a rope during a game of tug-of-war, it's the amount of pulling force a material can handle before breaking. A higher rating means a stronger filament. A tensile strength of 5,000 psi and above is considered good; 12,000 psi and above is excellent.
