Save on Tooling Costs and Time with Direct Production Plastic Parts
Figure 4® Tough 60C White is a versatile, biocompatible-capable production-grade white material with good impact strength, elongation, and tensile strength. It provides long-term environmental stability and long-lasting white color with an injection molded-like surface quality. This material is recommended for high mechanical load-bearing batch production medical parts that remain functional and stable for years.
This resin features a 65˚C heat deflection temperature and 23% elongation at break and is excellent for brackets, snaps, and clips due to a 7.1% elongation at yield. Fast print speeds and simplified post-processing speeds enable exceptional throughput.
Figure 4 Tough 60C White is tested to 8 years of indoor and 1.5 years outdoor mechanical performance per ASTM D4329 and ASTM G194 methods, ensuring that printed parts remain functional and stable for long periods in real-world conditions.

Material Properties
The full suite of mechanical properties is given per ASTM and ISO standards where applicable. All parts are conditioned per ASTM recommended standards for a minimum of 40 hours at 23 °C, 50% RH. Material properties include physical and mechanical properties and thermal, UL flammability, and electrical (dielectric strength, dielectric constant, dissipation factor, and volume resistivity).
-
Isotropic properties
Figure 4 technology prints parts that are isotropic in mechanical properties meaning the parts printed along either the XYZ axis will give similar results. Parts do not need to be oriented to get the highest mechanical properties, improving the degree of freedom for part orientation for mechanical properties.
-
Long Term Environmental Stability
Figure 4 Tough 60C White is engineered to give long-term environmental UV and humidity stability and long-lasting clean white color. This material has been tested for its ability to retain a high percentage of its initial mechanical properties over a period of time. This test data provides real performance conditions to consider for the application or part.
The charts show a sampling of the dataset. The full data sheet includes indoor and outdoor stability data for tensile strength, elongation at break, tensile modulus, and impact strength. The actual data value is on the Y-axis, and data points are a % of the initial value.
