TPU 95A Flexible Filament 10-Pack

10kg at $19.88/kg | 14% Off | Pick Any 10 Colors, Free USA Shipping

Ten kilograms of TPU 95A Flexible. Any 10 colors from our full TPU range. Vacuum-sealed per spool. Free shipping across the USA. At $19.88/kg — 14% off individual pricing — this is the right-sized TPU pack for operations that run flexible parts regularly but don't need 16kg committed to a single material at once. Stock your 10 most-used TPU colors, keep the machines fed, and reorder as each color moves.

⚠️ Before you order: TPU requires a direct drive extruder for reliable high-speed printing. On a Bowden setup (stock Ender 3, CR-10, standard Anycubic), TPU is printable but slow — 15–25mm/s maximum. On a direct drive printer (Bambu Lab, Voron, Prusa MK4, or any Bowden machine with a direct drive upgrade), TPU prints cleanly at 40–60mm/s+. If you're stocking 10kg for production, confirm your extruder setup first.

10-Pack vs 16-Pack — Which TPU Pack Is Right for You?

⚠️ Note on pricing: The 16-pack costs slightly more per kg ($21.49 vs $19.88) because it includes a High Speed TPU formulation with a different cost base — not a standard bulk pricing inversion. Both packs are TPU 95A with the same Shore hardness and flexibility profile.

What Is TPU 95A — Plain Language Version

TPU stands for Thermoplastic Polyurethane. It's rubber that you can 3D print. The "95A" is its hardness rating — think of a shopping cart wheel. It's firm enough to roll smoothly under load and hold its shape, but it compresses when you squeeze it and springs back when you let go. That's 95A — the most printable and most versatile TPU hardness, sitting between "too soft to feed reliably" and "barely flexible at all."

• Bends without breaking — TPU parts can be flexed, compressed, and twisted repeatedly without cracking. PLA and PETG snap under the same stress.
• Absorbs impact — the material deforms on impact and absorbs the energy before transferring it to whatever it's protecting. That's why phone cases and bumpers exist in TPU.
• Returns to shape — unlike soft metals or rigid plastics that stay deformed, TPU springs back. Gaskets, seals, and vibration dampeners work because the material keeps resetting.
• Abrasion and chemical resistant — grips, handles, and parts that contact other surfaces hold up significantly longer in TPU than rigid materials.

Pack Contents & Value Breakdown

Print Settings for TPU 95A

TPU settings are counterintuitive in two key areas vs rigid filaments: retraction is much lower, and cooling fan is less aggressive. Both are intentional — follow these settings and don't apply your PLA profile to TPU.

3 Most Common TPU Problems — Fast Fixes

Extruder clicking / filament grinding
Back-pressure exceeds extruder grip — almost always caused by printing too fast. Reduce speed 10mm/s and raise nozzle temp 5°C. If clicking persists, check for a partial clog or a Bowden tube gap.

Stringing everywhere
Fix in order: (1) enable Combing mode in slicer; (2) dry filament at 50°C for 4 hours — wet TPU strings aggressively; (3) lower nozzle temp 5°C; (4) increase retraction 0.5mm. Don't go straight to retraction without trying steps 1–3 first.

Print won't release from bed
Never pull TPU off a warm bed — let it cool fully to room temperature. Apply a thin glue stick layer before each production run as a release agent. For PEI sheets, 50°C bed temp (vs 60°C) also reduces adhesion if release is consistently difficult.

Design Tips for Flexible Parts

• Wall count controls stiffness — 2 walls = soft and highly flexible. 4 walls = firmer. Tune wall count per product for your target feel without changing filament.
• Low infill for maximum flex — 15–25% gyroid or honeycomb. Gyroid infill flexes uniformly in all directions. Avoid grid/rectilinear infill — it creates directional stiffness.
• No supports where avoidable — removing supports from TPU tears surface layers and leaves marks. Redesign part orientation to eliminate overhangs before adding supports.
• No rafts — TPU adhesion is strong enough without them. Rafts add post-processing time and leave rough bottom surfaces.

Best Applications for This Pack

Storing 10 TPU Spools

• Keep sealed until the spool goes on the printer — vacuum seal is the best protection. Don't break it until you're loading the machine.
• Use a filament dry box while printing — especially in coastal or humid environments. An open TPU spool degrades noticeably faster than PLA or PETG in high humidity.
• Dry any open spool left more than a few days in humid conditions — 50–55°C for 4–6 hours before the next print session eliminates moisture-related issues.
• Batch consistency: all 10 spools ship from the same manufacturing batch — matched color tone and print behavior across your full production run.

Who Is This 10-Pack For?

• Sellers with 8–10 core flexible SKUs who need consistent stock of their best-performing TPU colors at bulk pricing — without the commitment of 16kg before they know which colors move fastest.
• Direct drive printer operators producing phone cases, grips, gaskets, and bumpers at moderate volume where 10kg is weeks of production rather than months.
• Operations adding TPU to an existing catalog — if you've been running PLA+ and PETG and want to expand into flexible parts, the 10-pack lets you stock 10 colors and assess demand before scaling.
• Makerspaces and fab labs offering flexible printing as a service where member demand is steady but not high enough to justify 16kg of committed inventory.
• Engineering and prototyping teams running regular gasket, seal, and vibration mount projects who want a managed supply of 10 specific TPU colors at below-retail pricing.
