What your process engineer actually checks
Toughness that survives handling
The 36 J/m notched and 380 J/m unnotched Izod and 12% elongation come straight from the ALTANA TDS. We help you set exposure and post-cure so parts reach full impact strength.
A materials engineer on the line
Factory-trained support, not a remote ticket queue. We help you choose between Tough 2100 and the Loctite IND403 grade we also stock. Sub-24h reply, NDA standard.
ALTANA Cubic Ink Tough 2100 VP is a fast, easy-to-print functional resin with a strong balance of toughness, impact resistance and heat deflection — robust enough to drill, grind and finish into real functional parts.
Why engineers choose Tough 2100 VP
Impact resistance without the brittleness.
High impact, low brittleness
36 J/m notched and 380 J/m unnotched Izod, 12% elongation and >10% deflection at fracture. Parts absorb impact instead of cracking.
Stiff and strong
73 MPa tensile strength, 2800 MPa modulus and 118 MPa flexural strength hold load without excessive flex.
Machinable functional parts
Robust enough for post-treatment — drill, grind and finish without shattering.
Fast, colorful printing
Highly reactive with short exposure times. Available uncolored, black, cyan, magenta, yellow and clear.
Technical properties
Measured on uncolored resin (TDS v4). Post-cured 2×30 min UV, Formcure L @ 80 °C.
