Our take on the MakerBot 900-0040A Build Plate Tape Performance Grip Surface Sheets 3-Pack

These are replacement grip surface sheets for the spring steel build plate of the MakerBot Method and Method X 3D printers. Each sheet is a black, textured build surface that holds parts down during printing and releases them once the plate cools and flexes. They are a consumable: the surface wears out after repeated prints and scrapes, so a three-pack keeps spares on hand. Compared with printing straight onto bare steel or using glue stick and tape, the sheets give more consistent first-layer adhesion and less edge curling, but they are a proprietary fit for the Method platform rather than a universal surface.

Best forMethod and Method X owners who print oftenUsers fighting warping and corner curl on large flat partsKeeping spare surfaces ready for quick swaps
Pros
  • Textured grip holds first layers without glue or tape
  • Flexible steel plate releases parts when bent
  • Three sheets per pack covers wear over time
  • Cut to fit the Method build plate exactly
  • Black surface makes light-colored filament contrast easy to see
Cons
  • Fits only the MakerBot Method line, not other printers
  • Surface is a wear item and needs periodic replacement
  • Adhesion can be too strong for delicate or low-fill parts
  • No Ethernet or USB relevance here; it is a passive sheet

Questions and answers

Which printers do these sheets fit?
They are made for the spring steel build plate of the MakerBot Method and Method X. They do not fit other printer brands or the Replicator line.
Do I need glue or tape with these?
No. The textured grip is meant to hold prints on its own. Adding adhesive can make parts stick too hard and shorten the sheet's life.
How often should I replace a sheet?
Replace it when adhesion drops or the surface is visibly worn or gouged. Print volume and material decide the interval; the three-pack covers several swaps.
Will it work with high-temperature materials?
The sheets are designed for the Method's heated chamber and common Method materials. Check MakerBot's material guidance for abrasive or high-temp filaments, which wear surfaces faster.
What is in the box?
Three black grip surface sheets. The steel build plate itself is not included.
Where is the MakerBot 900-0040A Build Plate Tape Performance Grip Surface Sheets 3-Pack cheapest?
At Staples, for $69.00, as of our latest check.
