TPU 85A

TPU 85A

$0.25 per gram

Elastic and Dependably Resilient
This 85A-rated TPU offers serious flexibility—stretching beyond 600%—perfect for parts that need to bend, bounce, or compress without fatigue. Its Shore 85A softness makes it feel rubbery yet structured, ideal for wearable parts, ergonomic grips, or flexible mounts.

Built Tough Against Wear
With tensile strength around 34 MPa (XY) and impressive tear resistance (~80 kN/m), it stands up to abrasion, oils, greases, and rough handling. Excellent damping and chemical resistance make it reliable in real-use environments.

Cool When It Counts
Maintains flexibility at low temperatures and resists permanent deformation—even under compression (~26% after 72h at room temp)—perfect for parts continually under load.

Naturally Soft, Naturally Tough
Feels pleasant to the touch, yet offers high fatigue resistance and dimensional consistency across uses—great for flexible joints, bumpers, or soft protective shells .


🔧 Best For:

  • Wearable gear & grips – phone sleeves, handles, wearable tech bands

  • Cushioning & bumpers – protective edge guards, footpads, mounts

  • Elastic functional parts – seals, hinges, flexible connectors
