## Description

Overview: SainSmart TPU filament is renowned for its high strength and flexibility. With the design freedom of 3D printing, SainSmart filament is the key to bringing your project, whether it be a weekend hobby or prototyping for a Fortune 500 company, from the sketchpad to reality. Each spool of SainSmart TPU filament comes with 0.8 kg/1.76 lb of material. This filament is drawn out to a diameter of 1.75 mm with a dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.05 mm, making it the perfect choice for most printers on the market. Specification: Diameter: 1.75 mm Material: Flexible TPU Net Weight: 0.8 kg Shore Hardness: 95 A Recommended Printer Settings Print Nozzle: 0.4 – 0.8 mm Extruder Temperature: 195 – 230°C Print Bed Temperature: 40 – 60°C Cooling Fan: On Printing Tips For Bowden Drive Printers Print Slower: 15 – 30 m/s First Layer Settings: 100% Height. 150% Width, 50% Speed Disable Retraction: Should reduce oozing and stringing Cooling Fan: On after first layer Increase Multiplier: 1.1, should increase bonding  Do not over extrude filament when loading. As soon as the filament start protruding from the nozzle, stop. Loading any faster will cause the filament to get caught in extruder gear.  Feed the filament directly to the extruder, and not through the feeder tube. This reduces back tension in the filament as well as drag, ensuring proper feeding. What’s in The Package 1x SainSmart TPU Flexible Filament 1.75mm 0.8kg vacuum sealed w/ desiccant

## Features

    Excellent value in a TPU filament
  

*by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2015*

Just received my first reel of this material and I must say that I'm quite pleased.  I print a lot of flexible filament (Ninjaflex and Filaflex) and this material compares favorably.Unlike the Sainsmart ABS, this filament comes on a plastic reel with a "standard" size bore, so it will fit on most printers.  I checked over the first few meters of filament and the diameter was consistent and to spec.  As noted in the specifications, this material is 95A durometer, so it is "stiffer" and less elastic than Ninjaflex and Filaflex.  That means that it is easier to extrude, and generally speaking is less "stringy", but it won't be as "Gummy Bear" flexible as the 85A filament from the competitors.You will still need an extruder that is able to handle flexible filament (good guidance from the drive "wheel/gear" to the top of the thermal tube).  This material might work better in a Bowden setup than the 85A stuff... but I still think that direct drive is the way to go with most all TPU's.I have printed it at 230C, 235C and 240C on a Makerbot R2X.  I get the best overall clarity @ 240C, but you start to lose layer definition.  230C still gives extremely good layer-to-layer fusing and adhesion.

    Definite Quality Control Problems, but Sainsmart trying to make it right.
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2017*

Update 1: Sainsmart contacted me and offered to replace the bad rolls and give the filament another shot. I gave them my address, etc., but a month later and no filament ever showed up, so I'm keeping this review at 1 star. If the new filament ever shows up and it works out, I'll update this review.Update 2: Sainsmart shipped the filament to the wrong address, even after I sent the correct address. I finally received it two months later.Update 3: I got a chance to use the TPU, and unfortunately it still had the same exact quality problems I experienced previously. Many hours of wasted prints. In addition, the TPU was full of moisture fresh from the package and had to be dried in my food dehydrator overnight before it would print properly.Update 4: Sainsmart again sent me new replacements (again to the wrong address). This time from a different factory and on different rolls. It looks suspiciously like the same rolls used by Yoyi. I have high hopes for this one. Raising my review by 2 stars just because Sainsmart is obviously trying to make it right.When it works, it works fine, but there are definitely some quality control problems. See attached picture. This plugged up my extruder and made a 23 hour print fail. (not happy!). The filament diameter goes up from 1.69mm on average all the way up to 2.5mm in spots. I've seen it go down to 1.6mm in diameter.Unfortunately, I purchased 5 rolls of this for a big print job. There is cheaper TPU filament that I had zero issues with (Yoyi I believe).The good: Prints very nicely when you get a roll that has a long enough portion where the diameter is consistent. I even got it to do some pretty decent bridging.The Bad:Diameter is all over the place. No consistency.Spool was wound poorly, so when you get to the end, the TPU is very wrinkled. OK for a direct extruder, but death to a Bowden extruder.Print settings:Glass bed with PVA glue coating at 70C gave perfect adhesion.First layer nozzle at 230, and then all other layers nozzle at 205C. (230C is the key to good bed adhesion, and 205C almost eliminates stringing)Fan off first layer, 100% for subsequent layers.Excellent layer adhesion.25mm/s print speed with direct drive extruder. 20mm/s print speed with a Bowden extruder.Sainsmart would have a good product if only they could get it to be a consistent diameter. This roll is definitely going back for a refund. The others I'm forced to use because I need them right now. I've already had several failures from the other rolls, but when you're in the middle of a big print job, you do what you have to do.
