OVERTURE TPU 95A Filament 1.75mm, TPU Flexible Filament 95A Soft for 3D Printers, 1kg Cardboard Spool, Accuracy +/- 0.03mm, Compatible with Most FDM Printers (Neon Red)

Used it on ender 3s1 pro at speed 25mm. No issues

I recently tried the OVERTURE TPU Filament in 1.75mm for some of my 3D printing projects, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. First off, the flexibility of this filament really stands out. It’s perfect for creating items that need to bend or stretch, like phone cases or custom grips. Printing with it was fairly straightforward. I didn’t encounter major issues with stringing or clogging, which can be a problem with other flexible filaments. I used a print speed of around 20-30 mm/s, and the layer adhesion turned out really solid. The colors are vibrant too, adding a nice touch to the finished pieces. Another thing I appreciated was the durability. The printed items have a nice rubbery feel, and they hold up well to everyday use. Overall, I think the OVERTURE TPU filament is a great choice if you’re looking to experiment with flexible prints. I definitely plan to use it again for future projects!

OVERTURE Rock PLA looks like sculpture but prints like a dream. The marble texture hides layer lines and adds a touch of artistry to even simple models. Flow is steady, adhesion is strong, and cleanup is easy. This filament does not film perfection, it videos progress, one flawless layer at a time.

Overall, this is a good TPU. Despite both variants being specified as 95A, they have noticeably different characteristics. The high-speed variant feels significantly firmer than the standard (non-high-speed) TPU. If maximum flexibility is the priority, the standard variant performs better in that regard. The high-speed TPU is much easier to print. It is more forgiving, produces cleaner results, and works well even with the built-in PrusaSlicer profile. The standard TPU required considerably more tuning to reach a similar level of print quality. Once dialled in, however, it can be printed at very similar speeds to the high-speed variant. If you are comfortable manually tuning print profiles or want a slightly softer TPU, the standard variant is a good choice. If you want a TPU that works with minimal effort, the high-speed variant is the better option.

I've been eyeing the lightweight PLA from another brand for a while now but couldn't justify the cost, especially considering how much tinkering foaming PLA would take. While looking for some PETG, I found this stuff - pre-foamed, so expansion isn't an issue; and really cheap! I've been using eSUN PLA+ for a while now, so that's what I'll be comparing it against. I drew up an airfoil in Inventor as a test and printed both with the same gcode in eSUN PLA+ and this Overture Air PLA. ~ Printing ~ I used a 0.4mm nozzle with 0.12mm layer height on a stock Ender 3 Pro. Walls were 0.8mm and top/bottom were 1.2mm. Both filaments printed about the same. My PLA+ was a little old and ended up getting knocked off the print bed on the last layer or two. The Air PLA had no adhesion issues. Both were minimally stringy. There was a little bit of cleanup needed at the Z seam but nothing too bad. ~Texture~ This is probably the most noticeable thing about this filament. The texture is is fairly rough, even the raw filament. There's a pretty obvious difference between the two filaments, but I don't see it being a problem for most applications. At worst, I'm sure it can be sanded fairly smooth. On the plus side, the texture does a pretty good job at hiding layer lines. ~ Mechanical Properties ~ I hope you weren't expecting anything too exact here. The Air PLA seems about as flexible as PLA+. I snapped both airfoils with my hands, with seemingly similar breaking strengths. The most noticeable difference being that the Air PLA broke much less cleanly, indicating better layer adhesion. I also printed a rocket body tube in the Air PLA. Similar to the ones printed in PLA+, I can squeeze the tube to around half the diameter without any permanent deformation. I suspect I'll be flying this filament before long. ~ Weight ~ Finally, the most important! My PLA+ print was 6.1g and the Air PLA print was 4.6g - a 24.6% weight reduction! Overall, for the price, it's well worth the purchase. I think it's great for rockets, airplanes, etc. and would also be a solid choice where the rough texture is desired.

As with all the other Overture filament types I've used, this TPU is up there in quality, ease of use and the final finish. Moisture level was low out of the packet, which is really important for TPU. Although it didn't need drying due to it being dried before being packaged in a vacuum sealed bag, with TPU being so absorbant, I threw it in the drier before use anyway. Used on a Prusa MK4, using flex profile, this printed amazingly cleanly straight out of the box. No additional retraction settings needed. The quality of the prints is right up there with all thr other Overture filaments I've used and is now my go to brand, buying from UK. Make sure you use a textured sheet as adhesion is really high. The colour is true black and a nice balance between glossy and matt finish, but this will change based in your print speed, temperature etc, so your mileage may vary. Overall, very well priced for TPU and up there in quality and functionality compared to other Overture filaments I've used. Very happy with this brand and this TPU
