Resin Elastic 50A V2 Formlabs Form 4 1 L

Discover genuine elasticity in your 3D printing projects with the Formlabs Elastic 50A V2 Resin (Form 4), 1L. As the softest engineering resin in the Formlabs catalogue, this 50A Shore durometer material has been meticulously engineered to mimic the look, feel, and behaviour of silicone. It is the definitive solution for producing pliable yet resilient parts capable of bending, stretching, and compressing repeatedly. Prototype soft-touch components with unrivalled speed and precision.

Prototype and produce parts with a silicone-like finish

High elasticity and immediate rebound

This material is engineered to deliver outstanding elongation and exceptional energy return. Parts printed with Elastic 50A can be stretched and compressed to the extreme, snapping back to their original shape rapidly. This makes it the ideal choice for creating prototypes that look and behave exactly like moulded silicone, giving you realistic feedback during functional testing.

Durability across repeated cycles

Don't let its softness fool you: this resin is tough enough to resist tearing during printing or use. It is formulated to withstand intense, repeated stress cycles without degrading. This durability allows you to create everything from functional prototypes to end-use parts that you can handle, test, and deploy with complete confidence in real-world scenarios.

Functional translucency

The translucent nature of Elastic 50A Resin offers a clear advantage: full visibility of the internal structures within your models. This characteristic is invaluable for applications such as medical models, flexible robotics, or stretchable enclosures, where visualising internal components or fluid flow is essential.

Key applications for Elastic 50A Resin

Take advantage of this resin's versatility to rapidly prototype and manufacture parts that would typically be made from silicone. It is an excellent choice across a wide range of sectors, including: wearables (comfortable straps and bands), compressible buttons and keypads, flexible electronic enclosures, grippers and joints for robotics, as well as soft-tissue anatomical models for medical training and simulation.
