Performs under pressure.

Rebound Resin is strong enough to handle constant compression or tension, great for manufacturing complex gaskets and seals that last.

Tear strength

110 kN/m

Tensile strength

22 MPa

Working With Rebound Resin

Rebound Resin is more complex to work with than other Formlabs products and requires extra steps for successful production.

This material is available exclusively through partnership with Formlabs
and requires a minimum quantity commitment to get started.

Rebound Resin Design

1. Design 
Rebound Resin requires designing within specific constraints for successful printing. Start small, follow the usage guidelines, and experiment.
