Mosaic TPU Flexible Filament: Flexibility Meets Durability for Your 3D Prints

Discover Mosaic Flexible TPU Filament , the ideal material for your 3D printing projects requiring elasticity, abrasion resistance, and exceptional durability . Mosaic TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) offers a unique combination of flexibility and strength, making it perfect for a wide range of applications beyond the capabilities of rigid filaments.

Main Features:

• High Flexibility: Designed to be highly elastic, Mosaic TPU can be bent, stretched, and compressed without breaking, returning to its original shape. Ideal for parts that need to absorb shock or adapt to different surfaces.
• Abrasion and Wear Resistance: Excels in wear and tear resistance, ensuring your prints last a long time even in environments subject to friction or repeated stress.
• Excellent Adhesion Between Layers: Offers excellent adhesion between layers, resulting in strong, cohesive prints that are free from delamination.
• Good Chemical Resistance: Resists oils, greases and various solvents, expanding its versatility of use in industrial or specific contexts.
• Vibration Absorption: Due to its elastic nature, TPU is excellent for the production of components that need to absorb shock and reduce vibrations.

Ideal Applications:

Mosaic TPU filament is the perfect choice for creating:

• Flexible Functional Parts: Seals, bushings, protective cases for electronic devices, and belts.
• Industrial Components: Shock absorbers, flexible connectors, and tool coatings.
• Consumer Goods: Shoe soles, wearable accessories, flexible toys, and sporting goods.
• Prototyping: Creating prototypes that need to reproduce the flexibility of the final product.

Printing Tips:

Printing with TPU requires some precautions to obtain the best results:

• Printing Temperature: Generally between 220°C and 240°C. It is advisable to run tests to find the optimal temperature for your specific printer.
• Heated Bed: A heated bed, with temperatures between 40°C and 60°C, is usually recommended to improve the adhesion of the first layer.
• Slow Print Speed: Slow printing (often between 20-40 mm/s) is crucial to avoid clogging and ensure smooth extrusion, due to the flexibility of the material.
• Minimal or No Retraction: Retraction can cause TPU jams. If possible, set it to a minimum or disable it.
• Direct Drive Extrusion System: Printers with direct drive extruders are generally preferable for printing TPU, as they reduce the filament path and the risk of kinking.

With Mosaic TPU Flexible Filament, you can bring to life projects that require an incredible combination of resilience and adaptability.
