Ultrafuse TPU 64D combines the best of both worlds. It is a strong yet flexible filament for Fused Filament Fabrication, suitable for all FFF technologies. Building on BASF's decades of experience with flexible materials, this material is based on the proven thermoplastic polyurethane Elastollan, which stands for maximum reliability, consistent product quality, and cost efficiency. Ultrafuse TPU 64D is easily compatible with water-soluble supports. Thanks to its property profile, Ultrafuse TPU 64D is an excellent alternative to rubber and ABS for the production of tools, fixtures, and holders.

Ultrafuse TPU 64D can be easily printed on direct drive and Bowden printers and is compatible with soluble BVOH supports to realize the most complex geometries.
