FlexiFil TPC 30D
FlexiFil TPC 30D is a rubber-like filament for 3D printing. This engineering filament combines flexibility with elasticity and resilience. You can fold, squish and stretch parts without tearing or breaking it. Its impact resistance and absorption properties are phenomenal. Your 3D printed objects are almost unbreakable. You can even stretch this material up to more than 400% of its initial size. FlexiFil TPC 30D shows good resistance to chemicals and UV radiation. This material is slightly more flexible than its sibling Flexifil TPC 40D.

*) Above displayed settings are meant as guidance to find your optimal print settings. These ranges in settings should work for most printers, but please do feel free to experiment outside these ranges if you think it is suitable for your printer. There are a lot of different type of printers, hot-ends and printer offsets that it is extremely difficult to give an overall one-size-fits-all setting.
Storage and handling
Filament should be stored at room temperature in a dry and dark place with humidity below 15%. Recommended storage temperature is ca. 18-25°C (64.4 -77.0°F). Keep out of moisture, sunlight and direct heat. When stored properly, product has a shelf life of 24 months. To obtain the best parameters of the printed object, it is recommended to dry the material prior to usage and to 3D print it directly from a dry box.
