TPU - Traffic Red 3D Filament
Experience an improved 3D Printer experience with the industry leading TPU Filament from TM3D. Available in diameters 1.75mm and 2.85mm , please note this when ordering.
Features of TPU 3D Filament:
- Flexibility and Elasticity: TPU filament is very flexible and elastic, making it ideal for printing objects that need to be bendable without breaking. This makes it perfect for applications such as phone cases, shoe soles, and flexible hinges.
- High Durability and Wear Resistance: TPU is exceptionally durable and has a high resistance to abrasion, tearing and oils, making it suitable for industrial applications and items used in harsh environments.
- Good Chemical Resistance:The material is resistant to many oils, greases, and a number of solvents, making it suitable for use in environments where chemical exposure may be a factor.
- Heat resistance: TPU can tolerate higher temperatures than many other flexible filaments, although the exact temperature resistance may vary depending on the specific composition of the filament.
- Excellent Layer Adhesion and Finish:TPU filament can be printed with high levels of detail, resulting in smooth surfaces and strong, homogeneous objects. The layer adhesion is excellent, which benefits the structural integrity of the printed object.

Frequently asked questions
Got a question?
Which filament material should I choose for my 3D printer?
The material you choose depends on the intended use and the desired properties of the end product. Some popular filament options include PLA (biodegradable and easy to print), ABS (strong and impact resistant), PETG (durable and flexible), and TPU (flexible and elastic). Consider the desired strength, flexibility, temperature resistance and special properties when making your choice.
Which filament diameter should I buy?
The filament diameter must match the specifications of your 3D printer. The most common diameters are 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm. Check your printer's manual or the specifications on the manufacturer's website to find out which diameter is suitable.
What is the difference between PLA and ABS filament?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) and ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) are both commonly used filament materials, but they have different properties. PLA is biodegradable, easy to print, less likely to warp and produces less odor during printing. ABS is stronger, more impact resistant and more resistant to higher temperatures, but it requires good ventilation due to the odor released during printing.
What is the influence of filament color on the printing result?
The filament color does not affect the printability or mechanical properties of the final product, but it can affect the aesthetic appearance. Bright colors can make small imperfections and layers more visible, while dark colors may hide them. It is mainly a matter of personal preference and the desired appearance of the printed object.
How do I store 3D filament properly?
To maintain the quality of your filament, it is important to store it properly. Store the filament in a dry and cool place, preferably in an airtight container or a sealable container with a moisture-absorbing agent, such as silica gel. Exposure to moisture can adversely affect print results, so protection against moisture is essential.
