Comment on TPU wall thickness for shoes
lemmyman@lemmy.world 1 month agoTPU that’s been printed right sticks to itself extremely well
I’ve done many TPU prints that were stressed to hell and they hold up amazingly well. Like 2000 lb shock loads on little 2mm walls, hundreds of times, and not tearing or delaminating. Ninjatek Cheetah and Fiberflex 40D mainly, but others seem to hold up really well too.

I printed wheels for my kid’s folding wagon 1.5 years ago or so. They have TPU treads that are around 5mm thick with three walls and 20% infill for some sponginess. They’ve heald up really well. They’ve been over curbs, rocks, and tons of other surfaces from 2 seasons.
