Creality K1 MAX PET/PEI (Carbon Fiber Pattern) Magnetic Flex Build Plate

ONE SIDE CARBON FIBER TEXTURE PET, THE OTHER SIDE TEXTURE GOLD PEI COATED.

THIS LISTING IS FOR THE K1 MAX

Note that this flex plate will come with the notches at the back to accommodate the locating screws for the K1 MAX

This flex plate also comes without the magnetic adhesive sheet since you will not need it for the K1 MAX.

This listing is currently being shipped directly from my supplier and will be shipped separate from any other items you place in your cart. Shipping for this item is FREE.

Make your prints stand out with texture transfer flex plates! These sheets feature one side with PET coated surface textured to look like carbon fiber. This texture will transfer to the printed surfaces touching the flex plate for a very unique carbon fiber weave pattern. 

When using the PET coated side you may find that you will have to increase your build plate temperature by 5-10 degrees Celsius to achieve the same adhesion as regular PEI.

PET is compatible with PLA / TPU /PETG

AVOID FINGERPRINTS and OILS on PET surface. CLEAN PET WITH SOFT WET CLOTH. AVOID ALCOHOL AND AGGRESIVE SOLVENTS. WAIT FOR PLATE TO COOL BEFORE REMOVING YOUR PARTS TO AVOID DAMAGING THE MICROTEXTURE.

The back surface is the tried and true textured gold PEI surface. It is like getting two plates in one.

PEI coated flexible magnetic build plates are one of the best upgrades you can make to any 3D printer to ensure reliable first layer adhesion.

Most 3D printers use glass print beds with or without a special coating to act as an adhesion promoter when hot and will easily release when cold. These generally work well, however, there are some drawbacks to these print beds. One of the biggest issues is that they are often fastened to the print bed carriage using clamps / clips. These components exert force on the glass at the edges and are often the culprit of glass build plates appearing to be bent or bowed. Glass is inherently very flat but it is the fixation system that causes problems. 

The magnetic build plates do not have this issue as the magnetic sheet is attached to the print bed carriage using the 3M adhesive backing. Therefore it is uniformly attached without clamps pressing on the corners. The spring steel flex plate uses the magnetic force to adhere itself to the print bed. Again, this is a uniform force across the entire build surface resulting in a very flat surface.

Additionally, removing prints is very easy and is performed with the flex plate removed from the machine. Therefore there is little chance of disturbing the bed level between prints.
