Soft-touch precision — flexible SLA parts with a smooth surface.
KS198S is Kings' flexible SLA resin at around Shore 82A: it prints smooth, detailed rubber-like parts that SLA's surface quality makes cleaner than filament TPU, suited to seals, grips and ergonomic form studies. It tears under aggressive elongation and drifts under prolonged UV.
This flexible resin is used for soft-touch and ergonomic parts — grips, seals, gaskets and wearable shapes — where a rubber-like feel is needed with fine SLA detail.
Smooth, soft-touch surface off the printer; cleaner detail than filament TPU but difficult to sand.
Available translucent, per manufacturer.
