TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane): A flexible and durable material, excellent for parts requiring impact absorption or a rubber-like feel. Note that TPU can be tricky with the AMS (Automatic Material System) due to its flexibility, so it's often recommended to print directly from the spool.

Simple Examples of TPU 3D Prints

  • Phone Cases – Shock-absorbing and grippy protection

  • Wearable Bands – Flexible straps for watches, fitness trackers, or gear

  • Vibration Dampeners – Feet or mounts for printers and electronics

  • Cable Protectors – Bendable sleeves or strain reliefs

  • Seals and Gaskets – Compressible parts for fluid or air-tight connections

  • Toy Parts – Soft, safe components for kids or pets

  • Shoe Soles – Custom insoles or tread patterns

  • Flexible Hinges – Durable joints for foldable designs

  • Drone Landing Pads – Impact-absorbing feet or bumpers

  • Sports Equipment Accessories – Grips, guards, or flexible mounts
