Spectrum Filaments 80520 S-Flex 98A Filament TPU clexible 1.75 mm 500 g Jet black, Black InnoFlex 1 pc(s)

Flexibility with very good impact resistance and heat insulation

Spectrum S-Flex 98A is a filament based on thermoplastic polyurethane. In the area of additive manufacturing, S-Flex 98A is a material, which is characterized by a relatively simple and problem-free 3D printing process. An additional advantage that allows perfect printing is the excellent adhesion of the first layer of the manufactured part to the hot bed, whether it is made of glass, steel, plastic or any other material.

Low processing shrinkage and very high flexibility reduce the risk of the edges of the finished parts significantly. The distinctive feature in the filament name - 98A - refers to the hardness of the material on the shore scale and classifies S-Flex 98A into the category of hard elastomers. From the perspective of the 3D printing process, this feature reduces the risk of filament deformation in the area of the feed system from filament to print heads. This allows a slightly faster pressure compared to other, more susceptible elastomers.

The additive parts made of S-Flex 98A are characterized by very high resistance to hydrolysis (a kind of degradation caused by the presence of water), good recyclability and excellent resistance to dynamic forces. These properties make it possible to print 3D printing parts for the protection of high-impact surfaces (bumpers, edge protection), sealing and protective elements with high chemical resistance and thermal isolators.

Uses:
- Bushings, vibration dampers, protective sleeves
- Snap-lock parts
- Edge protection against impacts,
- Bumpers and flexible spacers,
- Sealing parts with increased rigidity,
- Spring damping elements for use in machinery and modeling,
- High strength flexible belts,
- Covers and housings for various devices,
- Parts of thermal insulation systems.
