Prusa XL PP Print Sheet (PP powder-coated Print Sheet)

Product Description

Prusa XL PP Print Sheet (PP powder-coated Print Sheet) is an original double-sided flexible steel sheet with a special PP powder-coated surface designed exclusively for the Original Prusa XL 3D printer. It is optimized for printing polypropylene materials (PP), which typically have poorer adhesion on standard textured or satin sheets.

Thanks to the special surface treatment, this sheet offers significantly higher adhesion for PP filaments (such as Prusament PP, PP CF, PP GF) and enables reliable printing of even large-volume parts without the need for glues or separation layers.

Key Features

• Designed for Original Prusa XL – fits the XL magnetic heatbed exactly
• Special surface for PP – surface optimized for polypropylene filaments
• Double-sided flexible steel sheet – easy print removal by bending the sheet
• Excellent PP adhesion – ideal for Prusament PP, PP CF, and PP GF
• No separation layer needed – usually no need to use glues or tapes
• Also suitable for PLA, PETG, and TPU (limited) – however, standard PEI sheets are better for these materials
• Easy maintenance with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) – simple surface cleaning
• Warning: never clean with acetone! – acetone can permanently damage the surface

Recommended Use

Ideal Materials

• Polypropylene filaments (PP)
• Filled PP filaments (PP with carbon or glass fibers)

Recommended Procedures

• Clean the sheet with IPA (isopropyl alcohol) and let it dry before printing
• For PP materials, follow the nozzle and bed temperatures recommended by the filament manufacturer
• After printing, let the print cool down, then slightly bend the sheet for easy model removal

Materials for which another sheet is suitable

• For PLA, PETG, ASA/ABS, PC, PA, and other common technical materials, a smooth, textured, or satin PEI sheet is generally more suitable. On the PP sheet, these materials may hold poorly during printing or become detached.

Maintenance and Cleaning

• Recommended cleaning:
  • Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and a soft, lint-free cloth
• Prohibited agents:
  • Acetone – partially dissolves the surface, leaves stains, worsens adhesion, and reduces sheet lifespan
  • Coarse abrasive sponges or metal scrapers

The print sheet surface is a consumable item. Over time, visual changes may occur (print marks, shinier areas, small scratches). These cosmetic changes usually do not affect print quality and are not considered a defect.

Compatibility

• Compatible:
  • Original Prusa XL (all configurations)
• Incompatible:
  • MK2 / MK3 / MK4 series
  • MINI / MINI+
  • SL1 / SL1S, other resin printers
  • Other printer brands (without modification)

The sheet is designed for the XL magnetic heatbed with integrated high Curie temperature magnets. This ensures firm attachment of the sheet during printing even at high temperatures.

Safety and Warnings

• Always ensure the sheet is sufficiently cooled when handling
• Do not use sharp metal tools to remove prints – risk of surface damage
• Do not use acetone or other aggressive solvents
• When replacing the sheet, ensure correct orientation and seating on the magnetic bed

Technical Parameters

Who is this sheet suitable for

This print sheet is ideal for Original Prusa XL users who:

• frequently print technical parts from PP (e.g., tanks, covers, functional prototypes)
• need reliable adhesion and minimal warping of polypropylene
• want to limit the use of glues, tapes, and separation layers

For universal printing from common materials (PLA, PETG, ASA…), we recommend also keeping standard PEI print sheets in stock and changing the print bed surface according to the material.

Key Features:

• Original PP powder-coated print sheet for Original Prusa XL 3D printer
• Optimized for polypropylene filaments (PP, PP CF, PP GF) with high adhesion
• Double-sided flexible steel sheet for easy print removal by bending
• No separation layer or glues needed for most PP prints
• Suitable for printing large-volume PP parts without significant warping
• Can be cleaned with IPA, simple and fast surface maintenance
• Warning: never clean with acetone, risk of permanent surface damage
• Compatible only with Original Prusa XL – exact fit on the magnetic bed
