FAQs:
What is T-Grip?
T‑Grip is a temperature‑activated bed adhesive polymer designed for FDM 3D printing. It ensures strong first‑layer bonding between the print and the build plate, reducing warping and improving print success.
How does T‑Grip work?
T‑Grip contains a special wax polymer that activates when heated between 60°C – 130°C. At printing temperature, it forms a strong bond with the filament. Once cooled to room temperature, the bond releases, allowing prints to pop off easily.
Which build plates are compatible?
T-Grip works on a variety of surfaces, including:
- PEI
- Glass
- Aluminum
- FRP
- Magnetic build plates
Which filaments can I use with T‑Grip?
T‑Grip is suitable for:
- PLA
- PETG
- ASA
- ABS
- Nylon (PA6/PA12)
- PC
- PPS
- Carbon Fiber composites of the above materials
What is the recommended activation temperature for different filaments?
- PLA: 60°C
- PETG: 80°C
- Nylon PA6/PA12: 80°C
- ABS/ASA: 90°C
- PC: 110°C
- PPS: 120°C
How do I apply T‑Grip?
- Shake the can well.
- Hold upright about 20 cm from the build plate.
- Spray a thin, even layer.
- For slightly warped or uneven plates, apply a thicker layer.
Is T‑Grip safe to use?
Yes, T‑Grip is safe on skin but should be kept away from eyes. It is water‑washable for easy cleanup. However, it is extremely flammable — do not use near open flames and store below 50°C.
What is the net weight of T‑Grip?
Each can of T‑Grip has a net weight of 175g.
How should I store T‑Grip?
Store in a cool, dry place under 50°C. Do not puncture the can, even when empty.
What are the main ingredients?
