It's what I've been looking for
I now own 7 different colors. Very cool filament, and a PHENOMENAL color selection :)
After printing 20+kg of filaflex 82A over a few years it is safe to say it's an excellent filament. Never experienced any faults that weren't process related.
As with all flexibles that I have tried it is a more challenging print process the softer you go. I have pushed limits and scrapped well over 5kg of prints made in Filaflex 82A. My experience spans from printing on cheap open bedslinger systems to more refined enclosed systems. Nozzles I have used are 0,4, 0,6 and 0,8mm. The general rule is that the printing needs to be slow, and very slow if the designs have any form of overhangs.. The overhangs want to curl up, and if that starts it only gets worse. It helps to run larger nozzles for both process stability and part strength.
This filament needs to be well dried for printing, so I nowadays print directly out of an active dryer to avoid any such problems.
My impression is that Ninjaflex 85A is slightly softer than Filaflex 82A despite the numbers saying otherwise.
I find that 95A filaments in general seldomly are flexy or "rubbery/grippy" enough when a flexy part is needed. By tuning the shell and infill parameters a wide range of softness can be achieved with this 82A filament.
The pictured play car design is a paid model that can be seen at the below link. The 4 tyres, the seat and the dampening bodies in the shock absorbers are all printed from Filaflex 82A with very good results. Suitable softness for the application and very durable.

The 240mm diameter rear tyres designed for the car are free to download on the below link and fit standard 6,5" hoverboard motors. Filaflex 82A has been a good filament to create maintenance free tyres that provide grip and ride comfort for the application.

Direct drive, not too tight with the bed level and Go Slow! It's been a good experience with what is probably the most flexible filament on the market.
ShoreA75 without changing the hardware!!
Soft prints, no headaches. Before this filament I used filaflex 70 it was good and probably more durable but I had to modify my printer print slower, and do a lot of maintenance.
With this I get the softness I needed the extruder can extrude faster and the print quality is always the same.
I use it to do custom insoles for shoes and the time I save with foamy is a game changer.
I ordered from USA and the product arrived under 1 week with free shipping. The 95A is perfect for what I needed. Firm rubber which I use to pad a bump stop on our bike rack systems. Pretty happy to see it working. I print on a Bamboo Labs P1S and set the retraction to the recommendation for Filaflex and it prints perfectly! No stringy fingers between parts.
Es un filamento fácil de imprimir y muy ligero si lo imprimes con bajo flujo, yo al principio he tenido problemas con las retracciones por no leer las recomendaciones,
sobretodo de velocidad de desplazamiento
Lo he usado para hacer soportes de unas placas solares en una Camper. Hay que ver el desempeño pero pintan muy bien. No se agrieta en piezas grandes como el ASA o ABS. La unión entre capas es muy buena, parece hecha con inyección y además aísla de las vibraciones.
Muy buen filamento para conseguir ligereza y flexibilidad, fácil de imprimir y con un acabado suave y esponjoso. Permite crear piezas densas sin aumentar mucho el peso de la pieza.
Estamos diseñando un UAV para una competición y este material es justo lo que buscábamos para el carenado. Hemos obtenido muy buen resultado siguiendo las recomendaciones del fabricante.
Agradecidos desde Xtra2 UPV :)
Saved us a fortune and many headaches
We manufacture small linear actuators that work on a unique principle. They require a dampening plug that we used to make of 1/4" EPDM cord.
However, due to change of molds, we now need 6.7 mm diameter instead of 6.35. And since that's non-standard and the manufacturers are unable to produce that material to the millimeter, we were unable to source it anymore - anywhere.
So we printed them instead. We reached the required flexibility by having a hole in the plugs. The best thing is that it printed perfectly with a QiDi iFast with Recreus' recommended paraments and loosening the extruder tensioner.
Even better was that we put that plug through 800,000 impacts inside an actual actuator and it emerged with exactly the same properties. No delamination, no change of Shore hardness. And that on our first try!

I don't have a lot of 3D printing experience, but I have been able to get some very nice super-flexy prints of a product shell at 0.8mm thickness around the outside with this using a Ender 3 V2 with a Sprite Pro direct drive extruder.
I had slow the speed to 10mm/s and I'm using 240c temp and 0.32 layer height. The transparent also has a nice shiny Fresnel lens appearance.
Prusa MK4 Filaflex 60A prints
Filaflex 60A filament is a great filament for printing ultra flexible parts. However it is very difficult to set up correctly on some printers. However I managed to print 60A on my Prusa MK4 printer. It took me some time and different actions on my printer to achieve a good result. You can find the printer modifications and print settings on the Prusa forum.
