Applications

It's ideal for printing durable, impact-resistant parts like protective cases, phone covers, door stoppers, sports equipment, automotive parts, and much more!

The elasticity of TPU prints is related to the Wall Loops and Sparse Infill Density setting. The higher the wall loops or sparse infill density, the lower the elasticity, and vice versa.

Printing Tips and Recommendations

  • Dry before use for higher printing quality.
  • TPU for AMS must be dried before use and kept moisture-free during the printing process to prevent stringing.
  • Drying conditions: 70℃ for 8 hrs in a blast drying oven, or 80°C to 90°C for 12 hours on an X1 printer's heatbed.
  • Storage tips: To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing.
  • Nozzle Temperature: 220 - 240 °C
  • Bed Temperature (with Glue): 30 - 35 °C
  • Printing Speed: < 250 mm/s

Accessory Compatibility:

  • Recommended: Bambu Liquid Glue, Textured PEI Plate, Hotend Hardened Steel Nozzle (0.4 mm / 0.6 mm / 0.8 mm)
  • Not Recommended: Bambu Glue Stick, Smooth PEI Plate, Hardened Steel Nozzle (0.2 mm), Stainless Steel Nozzle (0.2 mm / 0.4 mm)

Bambu Lab also offers other filaments, including:

  • Bambu Lab PLA-CF filament is carbon fiber reinforced PLA, providing an easy to print and beginner friendly filament that has improved stiffness and strength.
