Formlabs Form 2 Resin Tank
Please note: The standard Resin Tank is not compatible with Elastic Resin, Grey Pro Resin, or Rigid Resin. These materials require Resin Tank LT.
Compatible with: Form 2
The resin tank is an essential component of the Form 2 3D printer, and it is absolutely vital that it is in perfect condition for you to get the most from your Form 2. The Resin Tank blocks light and is made from shatter-resistant polycarbonate. It comes with a reusable lid and wiper, making it easy to stack tanks and store resin outside of the Form 2.
Unfortunately, it isn’t a matter of if the Form 2’s resin tank will need replacing but when, because over time the polydimethylsiloxane silicone (PDMS) layer covering the base of the tank where the resin sits wears out. When this happens, you must replace the tank. If you do not, then your prints will start to get less and less detailed and consistent, and they may even fail completely. And with 1L resin cartridges costing a fair amount, this isn’t an option.
You will also need to replace your resin tank if the silicone or optical window is scratched or gauged. Working with a damaged resin tank will block the laser, and cause prints to fail.
The good news is that a new resin tank doesn’t cost all that much and it will typically last you through 2-3 bottles of resin, or 2000-3000ml. So home users should get good use out of a resin tank, although industrial users will naturally get through tanks quite quickly.

Can I reuse resin?
Yes. You can reuse resin that is in your tank after a print, please do not return resin to the resin cartridge to avoid potential contamination. The Form 2 orange cover protects unused resin from ambient light.

Can I store unused resin in the resin tank?
Outside of the printer or resin cartridge, resin can be stored in the standard Resin Tank with the lid on for up to one month and in Resin Tank LT with the lid on for up to two months. Empty or use any excess resin before storing resin tanks for longer than this. Do not pour liquid resin back into the original container.

PALLETS DON'T SHIP VIA DPD - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Some units can only be shipped safely on a pallet due to weight and/or size. Cut off time for orders shipping by pallet is 1.30pm, that’s because we need to book the job before 2pm.
Pallets are big and they ship on big lorries! If there is any problem with a dustbin-lorry size vehicle accessing your property, you need to let us know and we can request delivery by a smaller 7.5T lorry. If this is the case, then PALLET NEXT DAY may not be available.
Depending on your postcode your options at checkout will include PALLET NEXT DAY, PALLET 2-3 DAYS, PALLET COLLECTION HG4 2RN (organise your own pick-up). Some postcodes will show “PALLET 5-6 DAYS” etc.
Pallet deliveries are between 09.00 and 17.00 and we are unable to give you the ETA in advance.
We use a very reliable local supplier, and the pallets go in to the “Palletforce” network. Currently the network don’t use tracking numbers and you can't track online (coming in 2026). Call or email us to check on a delivery or collection.
