Description
| Applications |
TEPU 50A is a medium-soft elastomer designed to balance flexibility with strength. It offers excellent compression strength, UV stability, and chemical resistance while remaining well-suited for functional parts and complex geometries. Like other polyurethane materials, TEPU 50A also provides strong compatibility with adhesives and bonding processes, making it useful for assemblies and integrated components. This material is ideal for applications that require durable, flexible parts capable of withstanding repeated compression and exposure to demanding environments. We can produce TEPU 50A components for prototypes, small runs, or full-scale production. Example applications: Seals and Gaskets, Cushions, Robotics Components. |

Available materials
TEPU 30A
TEPU 30A is a soft elastomer designed for highly flexible parts that require comfort, durability, and precise detail. Components printed with TEPU 30A offer a rubber-like feel and can easily conform to surfaces, making them ideal for applications where softness and flexibility are important. The material also provides strong chemical resistance and compatibility with adhesives, similar to other polyurethane materials.
TEPU 50A
TEPU 50A is a medium-soft elastomer designed for flexible, functional parts that need durability and consistent performance under compression. Parts printed with TEPU 50A maintain their shape through repeated loading, making it well suited for applications that require cushioning, sealing, or vibration absorption. The material also offers strong chemical resistance and UV stability, allowing components to perform reliably in demanding environments.
