Formlabs Tough 1000 V1 Resin Cartridge (1 Liter OEM) - Form 4
Tough 1000 Resin is a ductile, impact-resistant material with comparable strength, stiffness, and toughness to high-density polyethylene (HDPE), designed with exceptional wear and fatigue resistance for long-term toughness and utility.
The 180% elongation at break (EAB) and Gardner impact strength of 128 in-lb surpass HDPE, making it ideal for parts that bend, compress, or deform without cracking. Hinges and functional parts can handle repeated stress and wear with a work of fracture of 3,200 J/m2 and a Ross flex fatigue of >100,000 cycles (at 23 °C). With a matte, dark grey color, Tough 1000 Resin is engineered for applications that require smooth surfaces and low-friction finishes.
Tough 1000 Resin is a new material formulation that leverages the technology of Form 4 Series printers, with 5x higher fracture toughness, 2x higher EAB, and improved temperature, creep, and aging resistance compared to Durable Resin.
