TPU / flexible filaments - Compatible with AMS Lite - Yes

TPU filaments and flexible filaments are elastic 3D printing materials for parts that need to bend, absorb impacts or withstand repeated stress. They are suitable for gaskets, cases, protective covers, sleeves, feet, dampers and functional prototypes.

This category mainly contains materials based on TPU and other elastomers. When choosing a flexible filament, check the Shore hardness, recommended printing temperature and compatibility with your printer extruder. Softer flexible filaments need better filament guidance and slower printing; harder TPU is much easier to print reliably.

• TPU filament – the most common choice for flexible and durable parts.
• TPE and other elastomers – softer options for specific applications.
• Shore hardness – the lower the number, the softer and harder-to-print the material.
