FDM TPE

Material details

FDM TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is a versatile 3D printing material known for its rubber-like flexibility and durability. It offers various forms of elasticity, allowing extensive stretching and returning to its original shape, making it ideal for parts like seals, gaskets, and grips. TPE is also suited for applications within the food sector and in medical applications where skin contact is needed. TPE absorbs shocks, resists chemicals and UV light, and is excellent for applications needing high flexibility and resilience.
