Octave Borosilicate glass platform for Afinia and UP! 3D Printers
Can be used with our Kapton Tape, purple glue or Blue Painters Tape for a professional print surface.Advanced users of Afinia and UP! printers really appreciate the ability to print models without raft and with a base that has a very smooth mirror-like finish.* Borosilicate is a very high temperature glass.  It has a melt temperature of about 800 C.* It has a very low thermal expansion coefficient.* Resistant to thermal shock compared to regular glass.* Has an extremely flat surface.* Used instead of perf board on Afinia and UP! printers.* Can be used with purple glue, Kapton tape or Blue Painters Tape (available separately).* Prepare a second plate and quickly switch plates when a model finishes printing. This significantly reduces printer idle time between prints.* Reduces warping, however platform has to be properly leveled as is the case with any platform on a 3D printer.* 5.5" x 5.5" x  0.08" (140mm x 140mm x 2mm).Octave's Borosilicate glass plates are specially manufactured for use as print platforms on Afinia and UP! 3D Printers.  The plates have smooth ground edges for safer use and ease of handling.
