Elastic 50A Resin V2 is a soft, translucent elastomer with a 50A Shore durometer that is ideal for prototyping parts normally produced with softer rubbers and silicones.
Parts printed in Elastic 50A Resin will bend, stretch, compress, and hold up to repeated cycles without tearing, and spring back quickly to their original shape.

Elastic 50A Resin V2—
Why Choose Elastic 50A Resin V2?
Elastic 50A Resin V2 is an elastomeric material with high elongation and high energy return. Parts are highly elastic, yet strong enough not to tear during printing.
Fast Springback
Bend, stretch, and compress parts that resume their normal shape afterwards.
Transparent
Create objects that are clear, providing visibility into the model.
Durable
Able to withstand rugged use for multiple cycles.
Pliable
Produce parts that look and feel like a molded silicone part.
Applications
Elastic 50A Resin V2 is ideal for developing soft, flexible prototypes normally produced with silicone.
Wearables, such as straps
Compliant features for robotics
Compressible buttons
Soft tissue anatomy and medical models
Stretchable enclosures and casings
Special effects props and models

* Material properties may vary based on part geometry, print orientation, print settings, and temperature. Data was obtained from parts printed using Form 3, 100 μm, Elastic 50A Resin V2 settings, Elastic 50A Resin V2 post-processing steps.
Post-Processing
Washing
The foundational step in any SLA post-processing workflow is to remove any excess resin on the surface of the parts through an alcohol or ether wash.
SETTINGS
Curing
Post-curing Engineering and Specialty Resins is essential for parts to achieve their full strength and functionality. This step completes the chemical reaction initiated during printing, transforming the part from its green state into a fully finished component.
