Description | 3D Printing is by no means an exact science, and unfortunately requires alotof different criteria to be met in order to produce the results that areseenin YouTube videos. However, with that being said, it is certainly a loteasierthan it was only five years ago, and there are now a variety of productslikethese 254x254mm PEI Sheets with 3M Tape pre-applied, which help toimprovefirst-layer adhesion and make it far easier to achieve great 3DPrintingresults. These PEI Sheets are made of Polyetherimide, a plastic polymer withimpressiveabrasive qualities, which is a very unique material that offerseffectivestickiness while maintaining high durability and hardness. Thiscreates abuild surface that not only offers great adhesive characteristics,but willalso keep the original shape without stretching or breaking from minortomoderate forces. This is a far easier method than “ABS Juice”, Kapton Tapeandother Adhesion Aids, as it can be easily maintained and cleaned withisopropylalcohol, and is capable of lasting a long time without needing anykinds ofreplacements or repairs. As an extra word of caution, it’s important to remember that these PEIsheetsare made from a plastic polymer, which means “ABS Juice” or any formsofacetone will damage the sheets and result in reduced printing quality.Toclean your PEI Sheets effectively without damaging them, use isopropylalcoholwith a clean cloth to rub off any remaining plastic as well as any oilsthatmay have come from your hands. This will keep it in the bestpossiblecondition for continuous printing, without negatively affecting any ofyourfuture prints on those same sheets. 254x254mm PEI Sheets with 3M Tape - Technical Specifications:

| – 250 x 250mm (±5mm Tolerance) Typical Applications for these Sheets of 254x254mm PEI with 3M Tape:These 254x254mm PEI (Polyetherimide) Sheets are an excellent choiceforimproving the adhesion qualities on the build surfaces on 3D Printers, andareprimarily stocked to fit the Heatbeds on our Gearify Prusa i3printers.However, they can be cut down to size if you have a 3D printer with asmallerprintbed, and can either be cut to size before application, or can betrimmedto size once the application is done. If you are still using Adhesion Aids like ABS Juice, hairspray, painterstapeor Kapton tape, but are looking for a better or more permanent solution,these254x254mm PEI Sheets are not only an effective option, but are alsorelativelyinexpensive for the value that they offer. * _Please Note_* : These PEI sheets are cut to a universal size,allowingyou to cut it down to whatever size you need it to be. As such, thissheet iscompatible with almost every 3D Printer we stock, as long as the bedsize is254x254mm or smaller. |
