2.85 mm FleXD TPU filament

Genuine E3D spoolWorks FleXD is a semi‑flexible TPU filament supplied on a 500 g spool in Crystal Clear. The 2.85 mm diameter suits printers designed for that format and the material prints at 220–240 °C with a heated bed at 45–85 °C.

Upgrading from rigid or brittle filaments

Makers who need shock‑absorbing parts such as phone cases, keyboard protectors or insoles will benefit from the high shear strength and abrasion resistance. The jump is worth it when a design demands elastic flexibility combined with strong layer adhesion and easy support removal using water‑soluble Scaffold filament.

500 g spool capacity and print envelope

The half‑kilogram spool comfortably handles multiple small accessories or a single larger flexible model printed at the recommended 15 mm/s (30 % speed) with a glue‑stick bed adhesion method. Very large or high‑volume production runs will require additional spools.

Highlights

  • Easy printing at just 15 mm/s speed
  • High shear strength for durable functional parts
  • Excellent abrasion resistance extends part lifespan
  • Elastic flexibility enables shock-absorbing prints
  • Crystal-clear transparency with vibrant solid colour

Questions about this item

Does the 2.85 mm diameter match my printer's filament path?

Yes, this spool is manufactured to a 2.85 mm tolerance for printers that use the larger filament format.

What bed temperature and adhesion method work best for the first layer?

Set the bed between 45 and 85 °C and apply a thin layer of glue stick; the material adheres well and releases cleanly.

How should I store the 500 g spool to keep it printable over time?

Keep it sealed with desiccant when not in use; TPU absorbs moisture and will bubble or weaken if left exposed.
