TPU filament for soft, flexible, wear-resistant 3D prints
Unveil Form ShoeFlex 9075A is a light grey TPU filament in 1.75mm format, supplied on a 0.75kg spool. The flexible polyurethane material is designed for printed parts that need rubber-like softness, repeated bending, and better impact absorption than rigid filaments.
The 75A shore hardness places this filament in the soft flexible category. That makes ShoeFlex 9075A a strong fit for parts that need cushioning, stretch, grip, or comfortable surface contact rather than rigid structural performance.
Key features of Unveil Form ShoeFlex 9075A
- Soft 75A flexibility: suitable for parts that compress, bend, and recover.
- TPU durability: TPU is widely used for abrasion resistance, impact handling, and repeated flexing.
- 1.75mm filament format: compatible with a broad range of desktop FDM and FFF 3D printers built for 1.75mm material.
- 0.75kg spool size: practical for testing, prototyping, and lower-volume flexible part production.
- Light grey colour: useful for clean-looking prototypes, functional components, and parts that may be finished or matched into neutral assemblies.
Benefits for flexible functional printing
Soft TPU helps printed parts absorb shock and maintain function under repeated movement. Compared with rigid materials, ShoeFlex 9075A is better suited to components that need to deform in use without cracking or permanent damage.
TPU also offers good surface grip and tactile comfort, which makes it useful for contact points and protective features. When dried and printed with TPU-appropriate settings, the material can produce durable parts for regular handling and mechanical flex.
Common use cases for 75A TPU filament
- Footwear and comfort prototypes: soft pads, cushioning concepts, and flexible wearables.
- Protective parts: bumpers, edge guards, sleeves, and impact-damping covers.
- Grip components: handles, tool grips, controller accessories, and anti-slip contact surfaces.
- Flexible mechanisms: straps, seals, tabs, and compressible joints where rigid plastics are too stiff.
- Product development: testing soft-touch geometry, fit, and flex behaviour before moving to production methods.
Who this TPU filament suits
Unveil Form ShoeFlex 9075A suits makers, engineers, designers, and prototyping teams that need very soft FDM-printable material. It is especially relevant when the goal is to create compressible or wearable parts, rather than hard housings or high-stiffness fixtures.
