Brand New Gizmo Dorks PEI Sheet 12" x 12" (305mm x 305mm) 1mm Thick 3D Printer Build Surface Ultem 1000, Made in The USAManufacturer model:
GD-POLYPEI-12x12
MADE IN THE USA: Single 1mm thick sheet installs quickly on top of existing flat build platforms (e.g. borosilicate glass)
ABS and PLA filaments (along with many other materials) print directly on to PEI surface without the need for additional adhesives, tapes, or slurry.
REMOVE FILM FROM BOTH SIDES BEFORE USING: Blue protective film guards against scratches during shipping and handling.
Reuse for multiple prints, just wipe down with isopropyl alcohol between prints for best results
Sheet can be easily cut down to desired size by scoring with a utility knife

Product Description
PEI (Polyethermide)
High strength and heat resistance (up to 340° F) allows the polymer to perform consistently in high temperature environments. When used in a 3D printing application, PEI is excellent because it can withstand the numerous heat cycles that a 3D print bed goes through from print to print.
Polyetherimide has a natural Amber(yellow-orange) color and comes in different grades. Ultem 1000 is the standard, unfilled grade. It is inherently flame resistant and low in smoke production.
TABLE TOP FLAT
Best practices for 3D printing is to have a build platform that is level and flat. Many manufacturers cut their PEI sheets from larger rolls. This causes the sheets to have a bow and curve to them, which isn't ideal for printing.
Gizmo Dorks PEI is cut from large flat sheets of PEI, this allows for the dimensional sheets to be table top flat.
The best methods to attach the sheet to a 3D print bed is to use 3M 468MP adhesive transfer tape. The adhesive is heat resistant and provides a strong bond. This method provides the most level print surface.
The other method is to use small binder clips (2 per side minimum). This method provides the flexibility to remove the print bed.
PROTECTIVE FILM
Be aware that there is protective film on both sides of the PEI sheet. These need to be removed prior to use. Film is colored blue for your convenience.
BEST PRACTICES
PEI can be cut down to size by scoring with a blade. Wipe down the surface with isopropyl alcohol, methyl alcohol, or soap between prints to have a clean surface. Light sanding with 5000 grit sand paper will also give the PEI sheet more life. For certain plastics, including ABS and PLA, a heated bed is required.
