Gizmo Dorks Kapton Tape (Polyimide) for 3D Printers and Printing, 12 x 12 inches, 10 Sheets per Pack Description Kapton tape is the perfect accessory to cover your build platform during a 3D print. Kapton tape is made from a thin layer, 1 mil thick, of Polyimide film. The tape also has a 1 mil thick layer of silicone adhesive. Kapton tape is widely used because of it's ability to withstand the heating and cooling of a build platform. Certain plastics such as ABS filament adhere particularly well to Kapton tape making it perfect to use when a heated build platform is required. ABS filament will have full adhesion to the Kapton tape at the high build plate temperature required, but it will also release the printed part when the bed cools. The print will be easy to peel or pop right off making Kapton tape the practical choice for any 3D printer build plate.Dimensions: 12 inches wide by 12 inches wide1 mil thick Kapton layer1 mil thick silicone adhesive layer2 mil total thicknessComes in a pack of 10 sheetsEach sheet comes on a removable protective linerThe tape can be cut down easily to fit any size shapeOther sizes ranging from 6 to 12 inch widths are availableDry Application The dry method involves using a flat edge such as a ruler or a credit card to slowly peel and apply the tape while using the straight edge to keep the tape free from bubbles.Wet Application The wet method is similar to the dry method but involves spraying some soapy water underneath the Kapton tape. Remove the liquid by squeegee or a straight flat edge such as a ruler. This will also remove any air bubbles. The biggest benefit to the wet method is that you can re-position the tape while it is wet because the liquid allows you to easily slide the tape around. Let the Kapton tape fully dry before printing. Features: Superior quality Kapton polyimide tape for 3D printingResistant to high temperatures making it perfect for plastic filaments requiring heated build beds such as ABS3D prints adhere very well especially under high heat but release cleanly when cooledGreat durability for multiple print cycles without needing to change the tapeDimensions of 12 x 12 inches, can be cut to size easily Product Details: Product Dimensions: 12 x 12 x 0.1 inchesShipping Weight: 1.6 ounces#226 in 3D Printer Accessories Payment We accept Paypal payments only.
