About this product

Kings3D KS158T is a water-clear, optically transparent laser-SLA resin — the see-through grade for parts that need a PMMA-like acrylic appearance. It prints clear, accurate assemblies, lenses and vessels, runs on standard 355 nm laser-SLA systems, and we supply it from US stock with the starting parameters to run it.

Why engineers choose KS158T

A transparent SLA resin that prints clear, accurate, acrylic-like parts.

Water-clear optical clarity

Prints see-through parts with a PMMA-like acrylic look — the reason to choose KS158T for transparent assemblies, lenses and fluid-flow models.

Accurate, acrylic-like parts

Builds clear, dimensionally accurate parts with a smooth acrylic appearance and minimal finishing — 45–60 MPa tensile, 83 Shore D after UV post-cure.

Low 408 cps viscosity

Free-flowing resin recoats cleanly and rinses off easily, supporting fine 0.1 mm layers for crisp, bubble-free clear parts.

Runs across SLA platforms

A standard 355 nm laser resin (Dp 0.18 mm, Ec 6.7 mJ/cm²) — compatible with Kings, UnionTech, ZRapid, 3D Systems and similar industrial SLA machines.

How we supply it

A production print center supplying proven resins — not a warehouse reselling boxes.

Step 01
Proven, then stocked

We run a production SLA print center in-house. We only stock resins we have printed and validated ourselves — so what ships is a known quantity, not a catalog listing.

Step 02
Stocked in California

KS158T ships from our Los Angeles warehouse in 1–2 business days, sealed with a batch data sheet, plus starting exposure parameters for common SLA platforms.

Step 03
Custom formulation on request

Need the resin tuned to a specific clarity, toughness, tint or certification? Tell us the target and we will discuss a custom SLA formulation with our material partners.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.

Is KS158T actually transparent, or just translucent?
KS158T is optically transparent — a water-clear SLA resin that prints see-through parts with a PMMA-like acrylic appearance. Straight off the printer parts look frosted from the support and layer texture, but after the recommended UV post-cure, light sanding and a clear coat or polish they reach glass-like clarity. It is the grade we reach for when light needs to pass through the part — lenses, fluidic channels, transparent housings. If you only need a light tint or milky diffusion, tell us and we will confirm whether KS158T or a diffuser-style resin fits your look.
Which printers can run KS158T?
KS158T runs on standard 355 nm laser-SLA systems, not just Kings machines. It is compatible with Kings, UnionTech, ZRapid, 3D Systems and similar industrial SLA printers. The resin is characterised by Dp 0.18 mm and Ec 6.7 mJ/cm², with a typical 0.1 mm layer. Exact exposure and recoat settings are tuned per machine and build, so we send starting parameters for common SLA platforms with every order and refine them with you when you are dialing in a new profile. Tell us your printer model and we will confirm compatibility before you buy.
What are the mechanical properties of KS158T?
KS158T is a rigid, accurate resin measured after UV post-cure. Tensile strength is 45–60 MPa with a 2580–2670 MPa tensile modulus, flexural strength 75–83 MPa at a 2680–2790 MPa flexural modulus, hardness 83 Shore D, notched Izod impact 38–48 J/m and elongation at break 11–20 percent. Glass transition (Tg) is 62 °C and heat deflection is 52 °C at 66 psi. These figures come from the Kings3D datasheet and vary with geometry, orientation and post-cure. They make KS158T a good fit for clear functional prototypes and appearance models, but not for parts that must survive sustained heat.
How heat-resistant is KS158T?
KS158T has moderate heat resistance — a 62 °C glass transition and a 52 °C heat deflection temperature at 66 psi. That is fine for indoor clear parts, display models, fluidic demos and prototypes at room temperature, but the part begins to soften and lose stiffness above roughly 50–60 °C. If your clear part must hold shape near heat — under-hood zones, hot fluids, lamps — KS158T is the wrong grade. Ask us about KS1208H, a high-temperature SLA resin with a 135 °C Tg, or tell us the working temperature and we will recommend the right material.
What do I get in an order, and how is it shipped?
Each KS158T order is a 10 kg sealed container that ships from our Los Angeles warehouse in 1–2 business days. It arrives with a batch data sheet and starting exposure parameters for common SLA platforms, so your team can load and print without guesswork. We are a production print center, so we only stock resin we have run ourselves. For orders above 100 kg, an official purchase order, or a recurring supply schedule, request a volume quote and we will confirm lead time and pricing.
What is KS158T used for?
KS158T is used wherever a clear, accurate SLA part is needed. Typical applications are transparent assemblies and housings, bottles, tubes and vessels, automotive lenses and light guides, lighting diffusers, fluid-flow visualization models and clear functional prototypes with an acrylic appearance. Its PMMA-like clarity lets engineers see internal features, check fluid paths, or present a see-through appearance model. It prints with good dimensional accuracy and needs minimal finishing for form and fit checks; for optical-grade clarity, parts are post-cured and then polished or clear-coated after printing.
Can you match a specific clarity, tint or certification?
Yes — tell us the target and we will discuss a custom SLA formulation with our material partners. We do not formulate resin ourselves; we are a print center that sources and proves materials. If stock KS158T is close but you need a particular tint, higher toughness, a different post-cure window, or documentation for a regulated application, describe the requirement and a materials engineer will scope whether a custom or alternative grade fits. Reply is usually under four hours and we work under NDA as standard, so you can share part details safely.
