Figure 4® Tough 65C Black

Generic Family: Unspecified • Supplied by: 3D Systems
Black plastic for long-term use parts with a good combination of impact strength, elongation, and tensile strength

SAVE ON TOOLING COSTS AND TIME WITH DIRECT PRODUCTION PLASTIC PARTS

Figure 4 ® Tough 65C Black is a versatile production-grade black material with good impact strength, elongation, and tensile strength. It provides long-term environmental stability with an injection molded-like surface quality. This material is recommended for high mechanical load-bearing batch production parts, jigs and fixtures, and prototypes that remain stable for years.

This resin features a 70°C heat deflection temperature and 35% elongation at break, and is excellent for buckles, snaps, and clips due to a 6.6% elongation at yield. Simplified post-processing speeds enable high end-to-end throughput.

APPLICATIONS
  • Load-bearing parts such as handles, cranks, knobs, and levers Structural parts like brackets, snap-fits, and custom fasteners
  • Small parts requiring detail and accuracy for consumer products, sporting goods, and general use
  • Latching and board connectors for data devices and white goods
  • Sensor holders and guides

BENEFITS
  • Long-term use parts for indoor and outdoor applications
  • High elongation at yield for ABS-like material; good for better snaps and clips
  • Excellent surface quality, accuracy, repeatability
  • Fast throughput to finished part; no secondary thermal cure required

FEATURES
  • Long-term indoor and outdoor environmental stability of mechanical properties; tested out to 8 and 1.5 years (respectively) per ASTM methods
  • 70°C HDT at 0.455MPa
  • 35% elongation at break
  • 6.6% elongation at yield
  • 31 J/m notched impact strength
  • 41 MPa tensile strength
  • Biocompatible-capable per ISO 10993-5
  • UL94 HB flammability
