Secure your industrial workflow with the Formlabs Flame Retardant Resin for Form 4, 1 kg, 0.84 l. Designed specifically for the aerospace, automotive, and electronics sectors, this UL 94 V-0 certified material lets you produce self-extinguishing, rigid, creep-resistant parts that withstand high temperatures. Achieve injection-moulding surface fidelity without the high tooling costs.
Advanced capabilities of the Formlabs Flame Retardant Resin for Form 4, 1 kg, 0.84 l
Certified safety for critical environments
In industries where ignition sources are a constant risk, material certification is non-negotiable. This resin is formulated to be halogen-free and self-extinguishing, meeting the rigorous UL 94 V-0 (at 3 mm) and FAR 25.853 standards. Whether you are prototyping interior cabin components for rail and aerospace applications or creating protective enclosures for medical electronics, this material ensures your parts exceed the required Flammability, Smoke, and Toxicity (FST) ratings. It removes the traditional barriers to entry for manufacturing certified components destined for hazardous environments.
Industrial mechanics and machinability
Unlike standard resins that can soften or deform under load, the Formlabs Flame Retardant Resin for Form 4, 1 kg, 0.84 l delivers exceptional rigidity with a tensile modulus of 3.1 GPa after post-curing. This stiffness makes it highly functional for custom jigs, fixtures, and spare parts that must maintain dimensional accuracy over the long term. Furthermore, the material is designed to withstand post-manufacturing operations — you can tap, trim, and drill these prints just as you would with traditional engineering plastics, ensuring seamless integration into complex assemblies.
Injection-moulding aesthetics and thermal resistance
Visual fidelity is often compromised in functional 3D printing, but not here. This resin produces isotropic parts with an XY resolution of 25 microns, delivering a surface finish that rivals injection-moulded plastics. This is critical for consumer-facing parts or internal automotive components where texture and fit are paramount. Combined with a heat deflection temperature of 111 °C (at 0.45 MPa), the material resists creep even in high-temperature industrial environments, bridging the gap between prototyping agility and end-use durability.
