Product description

Bambu Dual-Texture PEI Plate, part number FAP011, is a genuine reversible build plate designed for Bambu P1 and X1 series 3D printers. It combines a gold Textured PEI surface with a charcoal grey Smooth PEI surface on a flexible metal plate, offering two distinct first-layer finishes across a 256 × 256mm usable print area.

⭐ Two build surfaces in one plate: Textured PEI for reliable first-layer adhesion and a textured finish, and Smooth PEI for a smooth matte underside and improved Z-axis precision.


✅ Compatible Bambu printers:

✅ P1P ✅ P1S ✅ X1 ✅ X1C ✅ X1E

🔹 Designed for the 256 × 256mm build plate size used by P1 and X1 series printers.

🔹 Not suitable for the smaller A1 Mini build platform.
