Overview
- 3D Print Specific Features:
- Greatly improves print bed adhesion and prevents Warping - Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks greatly improve adhesion of NYLON, ABS, ASA, PETG and other materials (Note: Heated bed is mandatory for most materials).
- Easy removal of 3D prints - Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks cause most 3D printed parts to pop off when the print bed cools down. For removal of other more stubborn prints minimal effort is required.
- Without mess - Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue can be applied locally, without any mess, unlike using hair sprays. Can be applied easily - only where needed; no product goes to waste.
- Easy cleanup - Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks are water-soluble - can be easily removed from 3D printed objects or print bed using regular tap water.
- No toxic fumes or danger - Unlike hair sprays and acetone that are combustible and extract toxic fumes, Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks are non toxic and perfectly safe to be used on a heated plate - hot bed.
- Prevent damage to glass - 3D Prints made from PETG can damage regular or borosilicate glass by sticking too well. Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks prevent permanent adhesion of PETG.
- Instructions for use:
- 1. Clean the print bed, to remove any oils or debris, before applying the glue.
- 2. For best results apply glue sticks sparingly, in a cross-hatch pattern, to a cold print bed (at room temperature). If applied to a hot print bed, glue gets wasted and is not as effective.
- 3. Optional - Use a dump cloth to better distribute the glue over the platform. This way a very thin layer of glue will be left on the plate. Avoid removing the glue from the plate by doing gentle strokes.
- 4. Heat the print bed to the temperature recommended by the filament manufacturer.
- General Use Features:
- - Everyone's favorite for easy, no mess bonding
- - Goes on purple and dries clear so you can see where you are gluing
- - Smooth for easy application
- - Acid free, photo safe and non toxic
- - Washes easily off hands and out of clothes
- - Pack of 3 glue sticks
Description
The Ultimate Adhesive for 3D Printing and Crafts
Discover the versatility of Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks, available in a convenient pack of three. While known as a staple school adhesive, this product has gained immense popularity within the 3D printing community for its remarkable performance. Each 7 gram (0.24 OZ) stick offers a simple, effective solution for a wide range of applications, from classroom projects to complex additive manufacturing tasks. This pack is an essential item for hobbyists and professionals looking to purchase a reliable bonding agent that is both effective and easy to use.
Superior 3D Print Bed Adhesion
Achieve flawless first layers and eliminate frustrating print failures. Elmer's glue sticks greatly improve print bed adhesion, providing a strong bond that prevents warping, especially with challenging materials. It is highly effective for filaments such as NYLON, ABS, ASA, and PETG. For optimal performance and to ensure the material sticks properly throughout the printing process, using a heated bed is mandatory for most of these advanced filaments. Get the perfect foundation for your prints every time with this trusted solution, which is in stock and ready for your next project.
Effortless Print Removal and Surface Protection
One of the biggest challenges after a successful print is removing it without damaging the part or the build surface. Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue creates a unique interface layer that causes most 3D printed parts to simply pop off the build plate once it cools down. For more stubborn prints, only minimal effort is required. This feature is particularly beneficial when printing with PETG, which can permanently bond to and damage regular or borosilicate glass surfaces. This glue acts as a protective barrier, ensuring your equipment remains pristine.
Clean and Mess-Free Application
Say goodbye to messy alternatives like hair sprays and adhesive slurries. Elmer's glue sticks offer a clean, controlled application without any overspray or mess. You can apply the adhesive precisely where it is needed on the print bed, ensuring no product goes to waste. This targeted approach keeps your printer and work area clean. The solid stick form is easy to handle and store, making it a far more convenient and tidy option than liquid or aerosol-based adhesives. You can order this mess-free solution for a cleaner workflow.
Safe and Non-Toxic Formula
Safety is paramount, especially in a home or workshop environment. Unlike hair sprays and acetone-based solutions that are combustible and release toxic fumes when heated, Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks are completely non-toxic and odourless. This makes them perfectly safe to use on a heated print bed without any risk of fire or inhaling harmful chemicals. The formula is also acid-free and photo-safe, confirming its suitability for delicate craft projects and archival purposes, providing peace of mind for any user.
Simple Instructions for Optimal Results
Using this adhesive for 3D printing is incredibly straightforward. For best results, start by cleaning the print bed to remove any oils or debris. Apply the glue stick sparingly to a cold build plate (at room temperature) in a cross-hatch pattern to ensure even coverage. Applying to a hot bed is less effective and wastes the product. For an ultra-thin and perfectly smooth layer, you can optionally use a damp cloth to gently spread the glue across the platform before heating it to the temperature recommended by your filament manufacturer.
Versatile for Everyday School and Craft Use
Beyond the world of 3D printing, this is the classic school adhesive everyone loves. It is designed for easy, no-mess bonding on paper, cardboard, photos, and more. The magic of the disappearing purple formula is that it goes on purple so you can easily see where you are gluing, then dries completely clear for a clean finish. It applies smoothly and is washable, easily coming off hands and out of clothes with regular water, making it a favorite for parents and teachers. You can shop for this versatile product for all your bonding needs.
