SKILPRO TPU Black 98A is a flexible 3D printer filament designed for parts that require a combination of elasticity, durability and shape stability. With a Shore hardness of 98A, it is particularly suitable for functional components such as gaskets, dampers, protective parts and other designs that need to absorb impacts or flex during use.
The filament is supplied on a 1 kg spool and is suitable for compatible FDM/FFF 3D printers. SKILPRO TPU 98A is designed to provide strong layer bonding and a smooth surface finish, making it useful for both functional prototypes and finished flexible components.

SKILPRO TPU Black 98A is a flexible 3D printing filament developed for functional parts that need to bend, absorb impacts and withstand repeated use. Its combination of elasticity and shape stability makes it suitable for applications where rigid materials such as PLA are not appropriate.
The material has a Shore hardness of 98A, providing a relatively firm form of TPU that remains flexible while offering greater dimensional stability than softer flexible materials. The filament is supplied in Black on a 1 kg spool.
The 98A Shore hardness gives this SKILPRO TPU a balance between flexibility and structural stability. Printed parts can flex and absorb mechanical movement while still maintaining a defined shape.
This makes the material particularly useful for functional components that require some movement or cushioning without being extremely soft.
SKILPRO TPU Black 98A is designed for applications where flexibility, shock absorption and wear resistance are important. It can be used for prototypes as well as suitable finished components.
TPU is well suited to parts that experience bending, movement and repeated mechanical contact. SKILPRO describes this 98A material as resistant to wear, cracking and deformation, making it suitable for components where durability is required alongside flexibility.
The material's elastic behaviour also allows suitable printed components to absorb impacts and vibration more effectively than rigid filament materials.
SKILPRO TPU Black 98A is designed to provide strong bonding between printed layers, helping flexible components maintain their integrity during use. The filament is also intended to produce a smooth surface finish for clean and professional looking results.
The Black colour gives functional parts a neutral and discreet appearance suitable for prototypes, technical components and finished products.
The filament is intended for FDM and FFF 3D printers that support flexible TPU materials. Because flexible filament behaves differently from rigid PLA or PETG, printer compatibility should always be checked before use.
Flexible materials generally require good control of the filament feeding path. Use settings appropriate for TPU and your specific printer, extruder and model rather than assuming that settings intended for a different TPU product will produce the same result.
A Shore hardness of 98A places this filament toward the firmer end of flexible TPU materials. This can make it suitable for applications that require flexibility but still need the printed component to retain its shape under normal handling.
SKILPRO also offers TPU in other hardness levels, so the most suitable grade should be selected according to how much flexibility, compression and shape stability the finished component requires.
Each spool contains 1 kg of Black TPU filament, providing material for prototypes, repeated test parts and finished components. The Black colour is particularly practical for technical and functional parts where a neutral appearance is preferred.
