Tough 1500 Cartridge - 1L

Product Description:

• Tough 1500 Resin is a highly resilient material in Formlabs' functional family of Tough and Durable Resins. It's designed for applications requiring a balance of stiffness and pliability.
• This resin is ideal for parts that need to bend and spring back quickly, such as prototypes, jigs, fixtures, and wearables.
• It simulates the strength and stiffness of polypropylene (PP), making it suitable for parts that undergo repeated deflection.
• Tough 1500 Resin is certified safe for skin contact, thus also making it ideal for personal protective equipment and other consumer goods.
• Supports print resolutions of 100 and 50 microns, and post-curing is recommended for optimal results.

What’s Included:

• 1 Liter of Tough 1500 Resin.

Key Features:

• Resilience: Ability to absorb shocks of energy and support repeated deflection.
• Fast Springback: Parts quickly return to their original shape after stress is relieved.
• Stiff yet Pliable: Maintains overall rigidity while being compliant.
• Biocompatible: Safe for long-term skin contact.

Applications:

• Prototyping applications where repeated bending and quick shape recovery are required.
• Manufacturing of jigs and fixtures that undergo repeated stress.
• Consumer goods, particularly wearables and personal protective equipment.

Material Properties:

• Ultimate Tensile Strength: 33 MPa
• Tensile Modulus: 1.5 GPa
• Elongation: 51%
• Flexural Modulus: 1.4 GPa
• Notched Izod: 67 J/m
• Heat Deflection Temp @ 0.45 MPa: 52 ºC

Tough 1500 Resin is an excellent choice for engineering applications requiring a balance between strength and flexibility, ensuring durability in parts that experience repetitive stress.
