3D print flexible filament faster with PolyFlex™ by Polymaker. With the LulzBot Flexystruder Tool Head this specialty filament can be printed at higher speeds, reducing 3D print times compared to other flexible filaments. PolyFlex filament is produced to exacting tolerances, exhibiting consistent filament diameters for fine surface finishes.

Works with: LulzBot Mini, LulzBot TAZ 6, LulzBot TAZ 5, LulzBot TAZ/Mini Aerostruder, LulzBot TAZ FlexyDually, LulzBot TAZ/Mini Flexystruder

Separate accessory recommended!

PolyFlex is so flexible it requires either the Flexystruder or FlexyDually Tool Head for optimal printing performance.

Print Surface Recommendation

PolyFlex adheres exceedingly well to our PEI print surface. We strongly recommend applying PVA glue (white school glue) directly on the print surface using a glue stick (such as Elmer's® brand) before printing to ensure easy part removal.

Features

Composed of 90% thermoplastic urathane (TPU) and 10% polylactic acid or polylactide, commonly known as PLA, to give this blend more stiffness and hardness while still retaining flexibility. PolyFlex is perfect for strong printed objects that need to flex while still holding their shape. The manufacturer reports a hardness of 90-95 Shore A which is slightly more flexible than SemiFlex, at 98 Shore A hardness.

Print Surface: To make removing 3D printed PolyFlex objects easier, we strongly recommend applying a glue stick (such as Elmer's® brand) applied to the print surface prior to powering on your LulzBot 3D printer. Maintain the print surface by powering off your LulzBot and cleaning the glue stick residue with a soft cloth and water.
