Choose Your Colour

Black Resin V5

A rich, deep black resin with a smooth matte finish. Black Resin is an excellent choice for presentation-ready prototypes, consumer-product concepts, enclosures, housings, and models where fine details and surface quality are important.

Ideal for:

• Presentation models
• Form and fit prototypes
• Enclosures and housings
• Jigs and fixtures
• Detailed models and props

Grey Resin V5

Grey Resin is an exceptionally versatile general-purpose material with a neutral matte finish that makes fine surface details easy to see. It is particularly well suited to engineering prototypes, detailed models, fixtures, and parts that need to be inspected visually.

Ideal for:

• Engineering prototypes
• Form and fit testing
• Detailed models
• Jigs and fixtures
• Manufacturing aids
• Presentation parts

White Resin V5

White Resin produces a bright, clean matte finish suitable for presentation models, prototypes, architectural and anatomical models, fixtures, and finished-looking parts.

Its neutral white surface also provides an excellent base for painting and other finishing processes.

Ideal for:

• Presentation models
• Detailed prototypes
• Anatomical models
• Jigs and fixtures
• Models intended for painting or finishing

Clear Resin V5

Clear Resin is a highly transparent, colour-neutral SLA material for applications where internal features, fluid flow, lighting, or transparency need to be visible.

Printed parts can be polished and finished to achieve very high transparency, making Clear Resin useful for visual prototypes, transparent housings, fluidic devices, lighting components, and optical prototypes.

Ideal for:

• Transparent enclosures
• Lighting prototypes
• Fluidic devices
• Parts with visible internal features
• Molds and masters
• Optical and visual prototypes

Typical Applications

Formlabs General Purpose Resin V5 is an excellent everyday material for:

• Rapid prototyping
• Form and fit testing
• Concept models
• Presentation-ready parts
• Enclosures and housings
• Jigs and fixtures
• Manufacturing aids
• Models and props
• Detailed engineering models
• Transparent prototypes with Clear Resin

Form 4 Optimized

General Purpose Resin V5 was developed to take advantage of the Form 4 Series' Low Force Display printing technology. The combination of Form 4 hardware and V5 materials enables fast printing while maintaining excellent dimensional accuracy, fine-feature reproduction, and surface quality.

Formlabs states that the V5 General Purpose formulations can print up to three times faster than their previous-generation equivalents on the Form 4 platform.
