Formlabs’ most robust, functional, and dynamic materials. The Tough and Durable family of resins can handle compression, stretching, bending, and impacts without breaking. Choose these resins when bending at lower stress levels is preferred to a brittle failure.
Formlabs’ Tough and Durable Resins Are Ideal For
Housings and enclosures
Jigs and fixtures
Connectors
Wear-and-tear prototypes
Tough Resin
Rugged Prototyping
Tough Resin balances strength and compliance, making it the ideal choice for prototyping strong, functional parts and assemblies that will undergo brief periods of stress or strain.
- Sturdy prototypes
- Interference and press fits
- Assemblies
- Prosthetics
Tough 2000 Resin
Ideal for rugged prototyping
Tough 2000 Resin is the strongest and stiffest material in our functional family of Tough and Durable Resins. Choose Tough 2000 Resin for prototyping strong and sturdy parts that should not bend easily.
- Strong and stiff prototypes
- Jigs and fixtures requiring minimal deflection
- Simulating the strength and stiffness of ABS
Tough 1500 Resin
Ideal for resilient prototyping
Tough 1500 Resin is the most resilient material in our functional family of Tough and Durable Resins. Choose Tough 1500 Resin for stiff and pliable parts that bend and spring back quickly.
- Prototypes that repeatedly bend and quickly return to shape
- Jigs and fixtures requiring repeated deflection
- Simulating the strength and stiffness of polypropylene (PP)
Durable Resin
Low Friction and Wear
With low modulus, high elongation, and high impact strength, Durable Resin produces parts with a smooth, glossy finish and high resistance to deformation.
- Consumer packaging
- Bushings and bearings
- Snap fits and flexures
- Living hinges
