Formlabs Rigid 4000 Resin (Form 4) - 1L is a glass-filled material that has the highest tensile strength in our Engineering Resin Library. This precise resin offers similar stiffness to PEEK and PEKK thermoplastics, printing with a smooth, matte, polished finish that is highly resistant to heat and chemicals. Consequently, it is the premier choice for stiff and strong engineering-grade prototypes and general load-bearing applications that need to withstand significant load without bending.
Industrial Applications for Formlabs Rigid 4000 Resin (Form 4) - 1L
Furthermore, the material is specifically engineered for making solid parts that require high durability and precision. Formlabs Rigid 4000 Resin (Form 4) - 1L provides a high modulus designed to simulate injection-moulded plastics, making it perfect for fixtures, connectors, and prototypes exposed to mechanical stress. Whilst it offers exceptional rigidity, it also contributes to low thermal expansion, ensuring that complex parts retain their shape during intensive functional use.
Consider utilizing this high-performance resin for the following professional applications:
- Mounts and brackets: Provides the structural integrity required for rigid mechanical assemblies.
- Thin-walled parts: Resists deformation and maintains dimensional accuracy in slender geometries.
- Jigs and fixtures: Offers the durability and chemical resistance needed for demanding manufacturing aids.
- Thermoplastic simulation: Effectively replicates the stiffness and performance of glass-filled PEEK.
