Flexi Plate with Carbon Fiber - Creality K1 and K1C - 235 x 235 mm

Upgrade your Creality K1, K1C, and compatible 3D printers with the Wham Bam Carbon Fiber Flexi Plate (235 x 235 mm). Engineered for extreme durability and high-performance smooth finishing, this build plate combines an authentic 0.4mm carbon fiber composite panel bonded to a high-chromium spring steel sheet with high-temperature 3M adhesive.

Unlike traditional thermoplastic surfaces like PEI or PEX, carbon fiber is a thermoset polymer cured via chemical reaction. This unique property prevents over-bonding with high-temperature filaments—including PETG, ASA, PEI, and PEEK—ensuring easy print release without surface degradation or damage.

Key Features

• Authentic Carbon Fiber Composite: Layered 3k woven carbon fiber impregnated with epoxy resin, cured under autoclave vacuum and heat for maximum strength and flatness.
• Ultra-Smooth Finish: Delivers a clean, smooth bottom surface on prints without leaving harsh pattern transfers found on imitation sheets.
• High-Temperature & Wear Resistant: Virtually indestructible build surface that withstands rigorous printing environments without chipping or cracking.
• Flexible Spring Steel Core: Allows rapid, effortless part removal by gently flexing the plate.
• Thermoset Chemical Stability: Eliminates excessive bonding risks associated with high-temperature polymers.

Printer Compatibility

• Direct Fit: Creality K1, K1C, Ender 3, Ender 3 Pro, Ender 3 V2, Ender 3 S1, Ender 3 S1 Pro, Ender 3 V3 SE/KE, Ender 5 S1, Elegoo Neptune 2/3/4 Series, Flashforge Adventurer 5M/5M Pro, Sovol SV06, AnkerMake M5C, and other 235 x 235 mm bed sizes.

Technical Specifications

• Overall Dimensions: 235 mm x 235 mm
• Spring Steel Thickness: 0.4 mm
• Carbon Fiber Panel Thickness: 0.4 mm
• Usage Note: Designed for single-sided use only (flipping the plate shields magnetic attachment). Requires an existing magnetic base.

Maintenance & Best Practices

Routine Cleaning: Clean the surface before printing using 90%+ Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) with a clean paper towel, or wash with warm water and mild dish soap to remove oils.

Thermal Considerations: Carbon fiber plates may take slightly longer to heat up. Preheating the bed for 5 minutes prior to printing ensures optimal first-layer adhesion. Keep initial layer hot end temperatures at or below 270°C and nozzle touch-leveling below 140°C to preserve surface integrity.

Adhesives & Enclosures: Compatible with Vision Miner Nano Polymer, Magigoo, or glue stick for challenging filaments. Use an enclosure (like the Wham Bam HotBox) when printing high-shrinkage materials like ABS and Nylon.
