Ultrafuse TPU 95A

Building on the legacy of BASF's decades of experience in flexible materials, this material is based on the well-established Elastollan thermoplastic polyurethane, synonymous with maximum reliability, consistent product quality and cost efficiency. Thanks to its exceptional abrasion resistance, Ultrafuse TPU 95A is an excellent choice for high-wear applications. Parts printed with this material stand out for their high elongation at break, excellent layer adhesion and good resistance to oils and industrial chemicals.
