Octave Borosilicate glass platform for Afinia and UP! 3D Printers
Can be used with our Kapton Tape, purple glue or Blue Painters Tape for a professional print surface.
Advanced users of Afinia and UP! printers really appreciate the ability to print models without raft and with a base that has a very smooth mirror-like finish.
* Borosilicate is a very high temperature glass. It has a melt temperature of about 800° C.
* It has a very low thermal expansion coefficient.
* Resistant to thermal shock compared to regular glass.
* Has an extremely flat surface.
* Used instead of perf board on Afinia and UP! printers.
* Can be used with purple glue, Kapton tape or Blue Painters Tape (available separately).
* Prepare a second plate and quickly switch plates when a model finishes printing. This significantly reduces printer idle time between prints.
* Reduces warping, however platform has to be properly leveled as is the case with any platform on a 3D printer.
* 5.5" x 5.5" x 0.08" (140mm x 140mm x 2mm).
Octave's Borosilicate glass plates are specially manufactured for use as print platforms on Afinia and UP! 3D Printers. The plates have smooth ground edges for safer use and ease of handling.
