Tough resin is the most commonly used MSLA material. It’s a very strong and easy to print material, which is good mostly for printing tiny parts with great detail, for example, plastic models, action figures, jewelry, various prototypes, etc.
Prusament Tough Resin is our in-house made resin, tailored for printing with SL1S SPEED. It comes with great printing speed (2.4s per layer), precision and reliability.
Always remember that despite our hardest efforts, all liquid resins still might pose a health risk. Use protective equipment, especially gloves, every time you work with resin. Prevent contact with skin, eyes, and mouth.
Accidents happen even to the most experienced users. If resin gets on your printer, table, or anything else, don’t wait and clean it immediately with paper towels and isopropyl alcohol (IPA), before it gets cured by the daylight.
Keep in mind the rules around waste disposal: Uncured resin leftovers should be disposed of with other dangerous chemicals at places designated for it. It cannot be recycled and definitely should not end in general waste. The same rule applies to bottles, paper towels, and models stained with liquid (uncured) resin. However, cured resin (reactoplastic material) is, unlike filaments (thermoplastic material), a non-recyclable material – it belongs in the general waste.
The best use of Prusament Tough Resin is for printing fast and detailed prototypes, action models, jewelry molds, high-precision technical parts etc.
