Material Name:

Rigid Resin

Description:

Rigid Resin is a glass-filled photopolymer resin that provides high stiffness and resistance to deformation. Reinforced with glass particles, it offers a high modulus and polished surface finish. This resin is ideal for producing parts that require rigidity and dimensional stability, such as housings, fixtures, and structural components. It maintains accuracy under load and is less prone to creep compared to standard resins.
