what filament would work best for a bouncy ball?
For a bouncy ball, the best filament would be the Unveil Form PEBA 90A Flexible and Bouncy Filament. This filament is specifically engineered for high rebound and excellent fatigue resistance, with a Shore hardness of 90A which balances flexibility and structural support. It offers fast elastic recovery, low hysteresis, and long-term durability, making it perfect for dynamic, repetitive-motion applications like a bouncy ball. It’s a premium alternative to TPU, with better rebound and energy return, superior fatigue life, and improved dimensional stability over time.

does the P2S support this filament?
The Bambu Lab P2S printer supports standard filaments like PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, and more with its official Bambu Lab H2/P2 hotend. However, the Unveil Form PEBA 90A Flexible and Bouncy Filament is compatible specifically with direct drive extruders and is recommended to be printed in an enclosed printer for best results. There is no explicit mention that the P2S supports this PEBA filament, which suggests it might not be officially compatible without modifications or specific setup, since the P2S hotend is designed for standard flexible TPU and other common filaments. If you want to print the PEBA filament, ensure your printer has a direct drive extruder and consider enclosure and drying as recommended for optimal print quality.

Which Bambu labs printers can support this filament?
The Unveil Form PEBA 90A Flexible and Bouncy Filament is compatible with direct drive extruders and is recommended to be printed in an enclosed printer for best dimensional consistency. According to this, Bambu Lab printers with direct drive extruders and enclosed printing capability would be suitable. Specifically, Bambu Lab models like the P1P, P1S, X1C, and X1E are known to be compatible with advanced hotends such as the E3D High Flow ObXidianâ„¢ HotEnd, which supports a wide range of filaments including flexible ones. These models are more likely to support printing with PEBA filament effectively compared to the P2S, which lacks explicit compatibility notes for this filament type. So, the best Bambu Lab printers for the Unveil Form PEBA 90A filament are the P1P, P1S, X1C, and X1E series.
