Login with my Xometry account Soft rubbery material.
Hi, I’m trying to make a small gasket like thing with quite a thin wall (0.8 or 1mm) It has to be soft and rubbery a bit like a thick elastic band. It would be good if it could also be died red.
Would this option produce the desired effect?
HP Multi jet Fusion
TPU (Polyurethane)
or is there a softer more flexible and elastic material I could be using?
Thanks.
