Reliable School Adhesive and 3D Print Solution

Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks are a staple for both classroom crafts and advanced 3D printing projects. This pack of three 7g (0.24 OZ) sticks provides a dependable bonding solution. Known for their distinctive purple color that dries clear, these glue sticks allow for precise application, ensuring you can see exactly where the adhesive is placed. They are designed for easy, no-mess bonding, making them a favourite for users of all ages and skill levels seeking a straightforward adhesive experience.

Superior 3D Printing Bed Adhesion

For 3D printing enthusiasts, Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks significantly improve print bed adhesion. This is crucial for materials like NYLON, ABS, ASA, and PETG, preventing common issues such as warping and ensuring successful prints. A heated bed is mandatory for most of these materials, and this glue stick works in tandem to create a stable foundation for your 3D models, leading to higher quality outcomes and fewer print failures, saving both time and filament resources.

Easy Removal of Completed 3D Prints

One of the standout benefits for 3D printing is the easy removal of completed parts. Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks are formulated so that most 3D printed objects simply pop off the print bed once it cools down. For prints that might be more stubborn, only minimal effort is required for removal. This feature reduces the risk of damaging your prints or the print bed surface during the detachment process, streamlining your post-printing workflow efficiently and safely.

Mess-Free and Targeted Application

Say goodbye to messy adhesive applications. Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue allows for targeted placement without the overspray or drips associated with liquid glues or hair sprays. You can apply it easily and precisely only where needed, ensuring no product goes to waste and your workspace remains clean. This makes it ideal for intricate projects where precision is key, whether you're working on detailed crafts or preparing a specific area of a 3D print bed for optimal adhesion.

Water-Soluble for Easy Cleanup

Cleanup is a breeze with Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks. Being water-soluble, any residue can be easily removed from 3D printed objects or the print bed using regular tap water. This hassle-free cleaning process means you spend less time scrubbing and more time creating. The ease of cleanup also makes these glue sticks particularly suitable for use in schools or homes where tidiness and quick maintenance are important considerations for craft and project supplies, ensuring a clean working environment.

Non-Toxic and Safe for Various Uses

Safety is paramount, and Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks deliver. Unlike hair sprays and acetone, which are combustible and can release toxic fumes, these glue sticks are non-toxic. They are perfectly safe to be used on a heated print bed (hot bed) without any danger. This makes them a responsible choice for classrooms, homes, and workshops, especially where ventilation might be limited. The acid-free and photo-safe properties further enhance their versatility for various crafting needs.

Prevent Glass Bed Damage with PETG

When 3D printing with materials like PETG, there's a risk of damaging glass print beds, including regular or borosilicate glass, due to excessive adhesion. Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Sticks act as a protective barrier, preventing PETG from sticking too well and potentially chipping or breaking the glass surface upon removal. This simple precaution can save you the cost and inconvenience of replacing your print bed, ensuring its longevity and consistent performance for future projects using challenging filaments.

Application Guide and Product Specifications

For best results, clean the print bed thoroughly to remove any oils or debris. Apply the glue stick sparingly in a cross-hatch pattern to a cold print bed at room temperature. Optionally, use a damp cloth to evenly distribute a thin layer. Heat the bed to the filament manufacturer's recommended temperature. Each pack contains three 7g (0.24 OZ) purple glue sticks that dry clear. Please note the warning: Choking hazard due to small parts; not for children under 3 years.
