Resin for 3D printer XVN-50 (engineering) 1L black AMERALABS

XVN-50 versatile engineering 3D printer resin provides an excellent balance of durability, flexibility and accuracy. This makes it ideal for prototypes, engineering applications and end-use parts. Due to its solid surface and additional flexibility, it is impact-resistant and reliably withstands high bending forces, thus offering even broader possibilities of use.

XVN-50 resin was developed to be the most versatile tool for any maker with a resin 3D printer. We call it an “adjustable wrench of resin 3D printing”. Its balanced flexibility, stiffness, impact resistance, and tensile strength make it an excellent choice for different applications.

Accurancy

XVN-50 produces dimensionally accurate and stable resin prints. Stiffness and added flexibility ensure that the 3D prints are precise but not brittle. This rigid resin is perfect for prototypes, robotic parts, engineering applications, snap-fit parts, and other end-use products where assembly is required.

Surface

After post-cure, the print does not feel sticky or tacky and is pleasant to touch. The surface of the XVN-50 resin print is hard (82 shore D) and is not easy to scratch.

Since this resin is not brittle, it is easy to cut supports with a simple hobby knife. 3D printed models can be sanded, drilled, tapped to add threads, and painted.

Resin is carefully pigmented and available in a solid black color.

Resistance

XVN-50 is relatively resistant to moisture. Water absorption is only 3.12% over 24 hours (ASTM D570). That means it will not deform or significantly change its mechanical properties due to air humidity or quick contact with liquids.  

However, 3D printed objects with XVN-50 material should not be used for models and parts intended for long-term contact with water, organic solvents, or other liquids.

If you need resin resistant to humidity and chemicals, look at our AMD-3 resin.
