Material Name:

Tough Resin

Description:

Tough Resin is a high-strength photopolymer resin designed for SLA 3D printing, formulated to produce parts with enhanced mechanical properties, including high impact resistance and durability. This resin bridges the gap between standard resins and traditional thermoplastics like ABS, making it suitable for functional prototypes, mechanical assemblies, and end-use components. Tough Resin offers excellent dimensional accuracy, smooth surface finishes, and can withstand mechanical stress and strain better than standard resins. It's ideal for engineers and designers seeking to create robust parts that require both precision and strength.
