Why Choose Tough 1500 Resin V2?
Robust, resilient and ductile material that rivals the toughness of polypropylene.
Tougher Where It Matters
10 times higher work of fracture, so parts don’t fail when drilled, tapped, or cracked. Three times higher Gardner impact strength for thin walls that don’t shatter.
Ductile and Resilient for Long-Lasting Compliant Parts
Extremely high elongation at break (155%) and Ross flex fatigue (8,000 cycles) for features like snap fits and compliant mechanisms.
High Environmental Stability for Demanding Applications
The highest temperature and UV resistance (66 °C HDT and –30.4% EAB* after 400 hours accelerated aging) of any high-compliance (>100% EAB) SLA material.
*When tested under ASTM D4459 Accelerated indoor aging standard.
Tough Parts That Don’t Deform Over Time
High creep resistance matching polypropylene, with less than 3% strain under 7 MPa load after 2 weeks.
Applications
Tough 1500 Resin V2 is ideal for resilient prototyping or simulating the toughness of polypropylene (PP).
