SA Filament TPU 95A Flexible Filament is a flexible thermoplastic polyurethane material designed for 3D printed parts that need to bend, compress and withstand repeated use. With a 95A Shore hardness, it provides a balance between flexibility and rigidity, making it suitable for functional components where a softer material is required without being excessively difficult to handle.

The material offers strong elastic behaviour, allowing printed parts to deform under pressure and recover their shape afterwards. This makes it useful for components that experience repeated bending, compression or impact. TPU 95A also provides good resistance to abrasion and wear, helping printed parts remain functional when used in applications involving regular contact or movement.

SA Filament TPU 95A is particularly suited to functional 3D printing applications such as flexible hinges, gaskets, seals, protective components, grips, vibration-dampening feet and custom fittings. Its combination of flexibility, impact resistance and abrasion resistance makes it suitable for both prototypes and practical end-use components.

The filament has a 1.75mm diameter with a dimensional tolerance of ±0.05mm and is supplied on a 500g spool. The selected colour for this product is Blue. It is designed for FDM and FFF 3D printing and is compatible with printers capable of processing flexible TPU filament.

For reliable feeding, a direct-drive extruder is recommended. Properly configured Bowden systems can also be used where the filament path is tightly constrained. TPU can be sensitive to moisture, so keeping the filament dry and properly stored is important for consistent extrusion and print quality.

Recommended printing temperatures are listed at 220–250°C for the nozzle and 50–60°C for the heated bed, with print speeds of approximately 15–40mm/s. Starting with slower speeds and minimal retraction can help establish consistent extrusion before increasing print speed.

The filament is manufactured in South Africa, making it a locally produced material for hobbyists, makers, prototyping work and functional 3D printing applications. The 500g spool is also useful when a smaller quantity of flexible filament is preferred for specialised projects rather than purchasing a full 1kg spool.
