Formlabs Formlabs Form 3 Flexible 80A Resin V1 - 1L
Formlabs Flexible 80A Resin V1 is a stiff, soft-touch, translucent elastomer with an 80A Shore durometer that is ideal for prototyping rubber-like parts with the flexibility of harder rubber or TPU. Flexible 80A Resin V1 is compatible with Form 3 Series printers. Choose Flexible 80A Resin V2 on Form 4 Series printers for an improved formulation with 4x higher rebound, 2x higher tear strength and elongation at break, and improved printability, aesthetics, and aging.
- Mimics hard-rubber flexibility
- Bendable parts return to shape slowly
- Translucent for internal visibility, streamlines design
- Cartridge compatible with Formlabs Form 3

| Notes | Notes |
| Wash parts printed in Flexible 80A Resin in two cycles, preferably using fresh solvent for the second wash. When washed in TPM, Flexible 80A Resin remains waxy when printed at any layer thickness and requires post-cure. Post-curing removes the waxiness. |
For parts printed in an engineering- focused resin (such as those in the Rigid, Tough & Durable, and Flexible families), post-curing ensures that the parts reach their optimal mechanical properties and can function as designed. There is only one recommended post-curing time for Flexible 80A Resin. |
