Material Description
LOCTITE ® 3D MED412 by Henkel is a flexible and stiff resin compatible with Stratasys Origin One 3D Printers. MED412 is intended for the healthcare and medical industry, meeting ISO 10993-5/-10 standards when following validated workflows. This material is suitable for autoclave steam and ethylene oxide sterilization. MED412 has unique mechanical properties – high durability and impact resistance, good tensile strength, high flexibility and 110% elongation at break. This material is ideal for applications that require moderate stiffness and wear resistance.
Consider when replacing medical-grade polypropylene.
Color options for MED412 are Clear and White.

Case Studies and data sheets
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, so did an urgent need for large supplies of personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare providers and nasopharyngeal swabs for COVID-19 testing. Origin (acquired by Stratasys in early 2021) collaborated with Henkel and other 3D printing leaders to develop a one-piece, FDA-compliant, sterile, 3D-printed NP test swab.
LOCTITE 3D MED412 is a strong, durable material with excellent elongation, impact strength and surface finish. It been designed to enable the manufacture of medical devices and their component parts that require good stiffness and wear resistance.
This material processing guide provides information about support tips, printing, part removal, cleaning, postcure, and general material best practices for LOCTITE 3D MED412 material.
