## Description

Overview: SainSmart TPU filament is renowned for its high strength and flexibility. With the design freedom of 3D printing, SainSmart filament is the key to bringing your project, whether it be a weekend hobby or prototyping for a Fortune 500 company, from the sketchpad to reality. Each spool of SainSmart TPU filament comes with 0.8 kg/1.76 lb of material. This filament is drawn out to a diameter of 1.75 mm with a dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.05 mm, making it the perfect choice for most printers on the market. Specification: Diameter: 1.75 mm Material: Flexible TPU Net Weight: 0.8 kg Shore Hardness: 95 A Recommended Printer Settings Print Nozzle: 0.4 – 0.8 mm Extruder Temperature: 195 – 230°C Print Bed Temperature: 40 – 60°C Cooling Fan: On Printing Tips For Bowden Drive Printers Print Slower: 15 – 30 m/s First Layer Settings: 100% Height. 150% Width, 50% Speed Disable Retraction: Should reduce oozing and stringing Cooling Fan: On after first layer Increase Multiplier: 1.1, should increase bonding Do not over extrude filament when loading. As soon as the filament start protruding from the nozzle, stop. Loading any faster will cause the filament to get caught in extruder gear. Feed the filament directly to the extruder, and not through the feeder tube. This reduces back tension in the filament as well as drag, ensuring proper feeding. What’s in The Package 1x SainSmart TPU Flexible Filament 1.75mm 0.8kg vacuum sealed w/ desiccant

Review: This filament works in a Bowden tube setup. - This TPU is flexible, but not stretchy. This is the third roll I have ordered from Sainsmart and I have had nothing but successful results on my old TEVO Tarantula. Be aware that TPU does not like all-metal hot ends - you can look this up yourself. I had a lot of problems trying to print TPU with an all-metal hotend. My Tarantula has a PTFE lined hot end, and prints this TPU wonderfully. It is stiff enough for the extruder to push it through the Bowden tube. I would like to try other TPU filament, but I am afraid I would have issues. Someday, I will take a chance on another brand but, for now, I'm sticking with Sainsmart.
Review: Prints great with a bowden extruder (slowly) - This stuff's pretty awesome. It prints well at 10mm/s through my (long) bowden extruder. Just make sure the area after the filament leaves the extruder gear is closely constrained so there's no gap for the flexy filament to buckle and push out when it's trying to feed. - 10mm/s - 220C - retraction disabled - cooling fan on after first layer I got the TPU in "clear", but it prints kinda milky. Colorwise, it almost looks foamy, but the surfaces are nice and smooth. In my experience it doesn't bridge very well and it can string, but neither is terrible. I recommend picking up some flush cutters to trim the strings; the prints are very durable, and so are the strings! You probably won't be able to cleanly pull them off and sometimes even a razor is tricky to use for cleanup. Layer adhesion is fantastic. Thin-walled prints stretch and squish pretty easily and return to their shape. I haven't seen any delamination yet. A single layer printed on the bed is floppy and droopy like wet paper. Two or three layers are about the stiffness of thick paper. Half a centimeter thick with 25% infill and it's a little less stiff than a rubber spatula. Add thickness and infill and the print starts to feel like a rubber doorstop. TPU is great for printing parts that need to friction-fit together since you don't have to worry about getting tolerances really close. Things will just flex into place.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Semiflex!
*by J***T on February 5, 2019*

This filament prints great in both direct drive (prusamk3) and bowden (Ender3). Ive printed about 5 or 6 rolls of the black with consistent results. BUT.... make sure the filament is dry. If it's wet, it will print bumpy and look like it's bubbling out of your nozzle. Even new sealed bags can have this problem. So I generally just dry it by default and the keep in a bag with LOTS of silica gel. I use an old food dehydrator at 122F (50C) for about 5 hours or more. I use a separate temperature controller to keep it at the temperature I set. That's important because higher temperatures can cause issues. Some dehydrators get way too hot. Keep this filament dry and you will be happy! Use glue stick on PEI to prevent it sticking too well. This is NOT super soft and squishy. It is called Semiflex. So keep that in mind. I use it for parts that need to be super flexible and durable. Parts printed with this are almost indestructible. You can't tear them or crack them. This is a good choice for your first flexible filament in most printers. 230C to 240C nozzle temps work well. Start at 230C and adjust as needed for good layer adhesion.
