Formlabs Tough 2000 Resin for Increased Strength and Performance - 1 Litre Cartridge

Tough 2000 Resin is the strongest and stiffest material in the functional family of Tough and Durable Resins, with “2000” representing the material’s tensile modulus. With this reformulation, Tough 2000 simultaneously improved on elongation, strength, and stiffness, which are typically competing mechanical properties.

Technical Specs

Material Safety Data Sheet | Technical Data Sheet

Reduced brittle failures: Increased elongation by more than 100%.
Improved strength and stiffness: Increased flexural strength and flexural
modulus by roughly 15%.
Better performance at elevated temperatures: Increased heat deflection
temperature by roughly 25%.
Professional-looking parts: New dark-grey color.

Applications

Strong and stiff prototypes
Jigs and fixtures requiring minimal deflection
Simulating the strength and stiffness of ABS

Overview

Tough 2000 is the stiffest material out of the Tough and Durable family. If you need a less stiff material, try Tough 1500 Resin or Durable Resin.

Strength, stiffness and elongation are typically opposing properties. Tough 2000 Resin now uses higher performing components such as those in Rigid Resin and Elastic Resin. This resulted in a complete reformulation and a brand new resin superior to Tough V5.

Below is a direct comparison of the mechanical properties between Tough 2000 and Tough V5:

Mechanical Properties and Comparisons

Supports Print Resolutions: 100 and 50 microns

Curing Period: 60min at 70 degrees

Choose Tough 2000 Resin for prototyping strong and sturdy parts that should not bend easily.

Due to its high strength and modulus, Tough 2000 Resin can handle higher stress and will hold its shape better under load compared to Tough 1500 or Durable Resins. When pushed to its stress limit, Tough 2000 parts will bend significantly before ultimately breaking.

All Engineering resins requires UV post-cure when finishing for it to be fully cured, please consider the Form Cure to properly cure your functional resin prints.

Notes on Formlabs Resins and Proper Use:

Formlabs Engineering resins come in a resealable and refillable 1 Litre Cartridge.
Resins should be handled in accordance with Formlabs protocols.

A new resin tank should be used per Resin colour/type for your Form 2 / Form 3 printer.
Never mix the use of resin colours or types with a resin tank.
