Formlabs BioMed Elastic 50A Resin Cartridge Form 4, 1L

Formlabs BioMed Elastic 50A Resin Cartridge Form 4, 1L

Create truly soft, flexible, and patient-safe parts with Formlabs BioMed Elastic 50A Resin Cartridge Form 4, 1L. This transparent, medical-grade elastomer, featuring a 50A Shore durometer, is the premier soft biocompatible resin for simulating the properties of silicone. Manufactured in an FDA-registered, ISO 13485 facility and USP Class VI certified, it empowers medical professionals to accelerate innovation by directly printing comfortable devices and realistic anatomical models, replacing slow and costly traditional workflows.

Produce Lifelike and Biocompatible Soft Parts

Designed for Superior Patient Comfort

Use this highly elastic material to create custom-fit medical devices that offer exceptional comfort for long-term skin contact. By 3D printing directly, you can bypass the molding process to produce patient-specific parts with a better fit and a soft, pliable feel that is ideal for wearables and support devices.

Create Realistic Models for Surgical Planning

Equip surgeons with tangible, true-to-life anatomical models for pre-operative planning and reference. BioMed Elastic 50A Resin can produce soft tissue models—including organs, muscle, and intricate vascular structures—that accurately replicate the feel and mechanical behavior of human tissue, improving preparation for complex surgical procedures.

Benefit from Functional Transparency

The clear, transparent nature of this material provides an unobstructed view of internal geometries. This is a critical feature for creating models where visualizing the interaction of tools or the flow of fluids within the part is essential for validation and testing.

Certified for Critical Medical Applications

Print with the assurance that comes from a material manufactured to the highest quality standards. This resin is produced in strict compliance with ISO 13485 and holds a USP Class VI certification, making it suitable and safe for applications involving long-term skin contact (>30 days) and short-term mucosal membrane contact (<24 hours).

Key Applications in Advanced Medical Care

Directly 3D print soft, elastic, and biocompatible components to significantly reduce production times and costs. BioMed Elastic 50A Resin is the ideal solution for:

• Patient-specific comfortable medical devices that require long-term skin contact, such as prosthetic liners and wearables.
• High-fidelity soft tissue models used for surgical training and planning, including replica organs, muscles, and vascular systems.

*The final device manufacturer is responsible for validating the biocompatibility and performance of all printed parts for their specific application and use. Formlabs provides extensive biocompatibility and sterilization data to support this process.

Technical Specifications

• Hardness Shore A: 50A
• Ultimate Tensile Strength: 2.3 MPa
• Stress at 50% Elongation: 1 MPa
• Stress at 100% Elongation: 1.3 MPa
• Elongation at Break: 150%
