>Hello everyone,

I’m looking for a resin that is equivalent or very similar to Formlabs Tough 2000 V2 in terms of mechanical properties and real-world performance.

The resin will be used on an open-material resin printer, so I’m interested in alternatives outside the Formlabs ecosystem.

I’m particularly interested in:

impact resistance

stiffness vs flexibility balance

durability under repeated use

resistance to cracking or brittle failure

machining/threading behaviour

long-term dimensional stability

If anyone has tested alternatives with comparable characteristics, I’d really appreciate your feedback and experience.

Thanks in advance.
