Description
BuildTak is a thin, durable plastic film that adheres to the printing bed of FDM / FFM 3D printers.
It provides a perfect surface and replaces the traditional blue tape or Kapton tape.
BuildTak consists of high-quality, heat resistant raw materials and allows for clean and easy removal of the component.
The surface of the component BuildTak adheres the component to the surface, minimizing distortions.
BuildTak offers the following advantages:
- Works great with PLA, ABS, Wood, PET, flexible filaments, and more ...
- No pre-treatment required (applying hairspray, etc.)
- Easy installation and clean detachment with no adhesive residue
- BuildTak is very durable
- Optimal bond between print object and surface
The patent heat-resistant composition was developed to withstand the typical temperatures of heated beds (110-125 °C).
More information
When using the BuildTak Print Surface the board must be calibrated again. The components may adhere to the print bed if the distance is not correct. Please find the instructional video below. BuildTak recommends using a nozzle height of about 0.2 to 0.25 mm. If the first layer does not adhere well, gradually reduce the distance.
Once the correct distance is found, you can use the BuildTak printing surface for hundreds of hours.

Review written by Lawrence
Rated with 4 out of 5 stars.
It is a good surface, however including an advertisment for an upgraded product, i.e the removable flexible magnetic surface was a a bit of annoying as I had invested in multiple sheets, a trail sample would have been more conciderate and not felt like a bit of an insult.

Single use
Rated with 1 out of 5 stars.
So I installed it on top of my worn out ultrabase, and calibrated to 0.2mm. as instructed. And this is what I found out.
No, PLA prints don't pop off when cooled down.
No, it isn't durable when you have knock a metal spatula with a hammer just to get the said PLA print off, alongside with some of the buildplate material fused to the first layer. (by the way, it can get scratched if you use a feeler gauge for calibration)
No, it does require pre-treatment in form of a buildplate adhesive as separator(!!!).
And even the latter didn't help when I got to printing PETG. Some parts of the first layer fused with the buildplate permamently.
As a result, surface texture is ruined in a single evening of printing.Was this rating helpful? (3) (1)

Because of the Prusa's unique design (like those 2 screws at the back of the bed) it is difficult to get the perfect build surface for it. The Buildtak flexplate has a spring steel sheet with which PEI or textured surface can be attached.
