- Anywhere it will sit above about 75 C under load
- Parts that must flex repeatedly, that is what TPU is for

Typical values for this family of filament, not a measurement of one spool. Ask us if a part has to hold a specific figure.
How it behaves on the printer
Tougher than PLA and it sticks to itself well, which makes layers strong. It strings a little more, so fine lattices need cleaning up, and it prints slower, which shows in the price. Bridges and overhangs come out well.
