Tough74 resin is a wear-resistant, tough material with excellent surface quality, making it ideal for producing durable action figures. It offers good notched impact strength and elongation at break, while also maintaining impressive rigidity. The material has a smooth, wear-resistant surface. Movable dolls printed with Tough74 exhibit exquisite surface quality and playability comparable to traditionally manufactured products. The joints maintain tight engagement even with prolonged friction, and thin structures do not break unexpectedly during assembly or play.

▌ Attention
-
Please fully post-cure the parts at the joint engagement positions. Ensure that these parts are exposed to UV light without obstruction in the post-curing chamber to achieve the required wear resistance
-
If the post-curing time is too long, it can cause warping of the printed parts and make them hard and brittle
-
Immediately after post-curing, the printed parts is fragile. It is not recommended to apply force to the prints. It is advisable to wait for a period of time for the prints to cool naturally to release internal stresses and restore its intended mechanical properties
▌ Descriptions
- Rigid and Tough, Wear-resistant, Durable
- Fine Surface, Easy to Clean
- Good Rigidity During Printing, Reducing Failures
- Ideal for Drop-resistant Tabletop Game Miniatures
Its durability, good detail, and high surface finish make Tough74 an ideal material for 3D printing tabletop game miniatures. When painting and handling models, you don't have to worry about them being damaged from accidental drops, greatly enhancing the gaming experience. However, we recommend using a layer height of 0.05mm instead of 0.02-0.03mm for miniatures to avoid significantly increased printing difficulty.
- Especially Suitable for Sturdy Action Figures
The wear resistance, durability, and low shrinkage characteristics, along with excellent surface quality, make Tough74 an ideal material for manufacturing articulated figures. Joints printed with it remain tight over long periods without loosening, with just the right amount of damping, allowing for free posing of figures, significantly enhancing their playability and fun.

Customer Reviews
good price, and excelent quality
I have been waiting for a long time for a better Resione resin than the TH72, so I was finally able to test it recently to compare it to the Ameralabs TGM7 and the Phrozen RPG. The positive points: - It prints easily with supports as thin as a classic resin, moreover even during printing the resin is much firmer than the RPG or the TGM7. - It is less expensive than the RPG Phrozen for exactly the same mechanical properties. - The resin is very aesthetic with a matte satin finish. The negative points: - The MAIN PROBLEM is that the resin is loaded with heavy pigments, which after a few hours, settle at the bottom of the tank and form a film which despite mixing with a spatula can cause failures on the following prints. - The resin is very viscous, like honey, even more than TH72, you have to adjust the printing parameters well and do not hesitate to heat it to make it more fluid. - The resin is not as resistant as TGM7, it is at the same level as RPG, you can bend a 1mm rod to about 170 degrees before it breaks. TGM7 never breaks.
I bought this stuff to print some hero ball jointed dolls. I TRIED to break it and couldn't. I am not exaggerating. The Batman ear withstood the force. I dropped everything multiple times. No breakage. Incredible. I have bought 3 more liters since!
Love the product works as advertised, I would love the product more if it was produced in white and a peach flesh tone. if that happened this product would be perfect!
The resin prints well and has amazing detail. Heat setting articulation parts take a bit longer than Anti-Impact/M58 mix, but once set, parts moves well and hold true.
I don't know if this is a single resin formula for my figures, but it is certainly a tough solution and I will be testing it for scene parts and accessories for the figures. All-in-all, I love it!
