Formlabs Durable Resin Form 3, 5L

Unlock industrial-grade manufacturing capabilities with the high-capacity Formlabs Durable Resin Form 3, 5L container. This specialized photopolymer is engineered for professionals who require pliable, impact-resistant parts that simulate the mechanical properties of common plastics like polyethylene (PE). Designed specifically for the Form 3 Series printers, this bulk solution allows for continuous, high-volume production without frequent cartridge changes. Please note that this 5L container requires a Resin Pump to function correctly with your 3D printer, ensuring a seamless workflow for your most demanding projects.

Features of Formlabs Durable Resin Form 3, 5L

Superior Impact Resistance

The Formlabs Durable Resin Form 3, 5L is the go-to material for creating parts that need to absorb energy without shattering. Its unique chemical formulation results in printed models that are robust yet pliable, making them perfect for squeezable prototypes and snap-fit enclosures. Unlike brittle standard resins, this material allows for significant deformation, returning to its original shape or holding a flex, which is critical for functional testing in real-world conditions.

Low Friction Surface

One of the standout characteristics of this material is its lubricious surface finish. Parts printed with Formlabs Durable Resin exhibit a low coefficient of friction comparable to Delrin® (POM). This makes it an excellent choice for low-friction assemblies and mechanical components where sliding movement occurs. Whether you are prototyping gears, bushings, or ball-and-socket joints, this resin ensures smooth operation and longevity of the moving parts.

Industrial Tooling Applications

Beyond prototyping, this resin is highly effective for manufacturing jigs and fixtures that undergo significant impacts on the factory floor. Its toughness ensures that manufacturing aids do not fail under stress, maintaining production line efficiency. Be aware that items with this specific bulk packaging are often made to order, and delivery times may exceed 5 weeks. Investing in the 5L volume is ideal for businesses looking to scale their additive manufacturing output efficiently.
