SUNLU TPU 90A Flexible 3D Printer Filament - Grey, 1.75mm, 1kg
SUNLU TPU 90A is the softer, more rubber-like member of SUNLU's flexible filament family, with a Shore hardness of 90A - noticeably squishier than standard 95A TPU. This 1kg spool of grey TPU 90A produces parts that compress, cushion and grip like real rubber: soft seals, anti-slip pads, protective bumpers, wearable straps and shock-absorbing mounts.
Every spool is produced with laser-monitored diameter control and held to a tight 1.75 ± 0.02 mm tolerance, keeping extrusion smooth and consistent through long prints. SUNLU's fully automated winding lays the filament 100% neatly on the spool - no knots, no tangles, no mid-print failures.
Key Features
- Extra-soft rubber feel: Shore 90A hardness - softer and more compressible than standard 95A TPU, closer to real rubber.
- Superior cushioning: ideal for seals, pads, grips and shock absorbers that need to squish and recover.
- Impact and abrasion resistant: tough against wear, oils, grease and weather for durable functional parts.
- Precise 1.75 ± 0.02 mm diameter: laser-monitored consistency for smooth, even extrusion.
- 100% neatly wound: automated spooling prevents knots and tangles mid-print.
- Wide compatibility: prints on most 1.75mm FDM printers; a direct-drive extruder is recommended for best results.

Good to know
- TPU 90A is very soft - use a direct-drive extruder, slow speeds (40mm/s or less) and minimal retraction. Dry the spool before printing for the cleanest surface.
- TPU absorbs moisture faster than PLA. For the best surface quality, dry the spool at 55-65°C for 4 hours before printing, and store it sealed with desiccant.
- A PEI sheet or glue stick helps both adhesion and easy release of flexible parts.
