Formlabs Flexible 80A Resin for Hard Flexible Prototypes
Flexible 80A Resin is the most stiff soft-touch material in our library of Flexible and Elastic Resins, with an 80A Shore durometer to simulate the flexibility of rubber or TPU. Balancing softness with strength, Flexible 80A Resin can withstand bending, flexing, and compression, even through repeated cycles. This material is well-suited for cushioning, damping, and shock absorption.

Whether you’re optimizing your manufacturing process, rapidly iterating through designs, or assessing form, fit, and function, our Engineering Resins for the Form 4 are formulated to withstand extensive testing and perform under stress.
Flexible 80A Resin is the most stiff soft-touch material in Formlabs' library of Flexible and Elastic Resins, with an 80A Shore durometer to simulate the flexibility of rubber or TPU. Balancing softness with strength, Flexible 80A Resin can withstand bending, flexing, and compression, even through repeated cycles. The “80A” in the name represents the material’s Shore durometer. If you need a more stiff flexible material, try Elastic 50A Resin.
Flexible 80A Resin is a reformulation of Flexible Resin. Flexible 80A Resin offers more advanced mechanical properties and a new look.
All Engineering resins requires UV post-cure when finishing for it to be fully cured, please consider the to properly cure your functional resin prints.

Notes on Formlabs Resins and Proper use:
Formlabs Engineering resins come in a resealable and refillable 1 Litre Cartridge.
Resins should be handled in accordance with Formlabs protocols.
A new resin tank should be used per Resin colour/type for your Form 4 or Form 4B.
Never mix the use of resin colours or types with a resin tank.
