Elmer's Disappearing Purple Glue Stick (40g)
Elmer’s Disappearing Purple Glue Stick is a safe and non-toxic adhesive that can be used to improve bed adhesion on some 3D printers with a glass build plate. This glue adheres to your printer’s build plate and provides a stickier surface that parts attach to.
This is the glue stick that Markforged recommends you use when printing with the Mark Two 3D printer. Elmer’s Disappearing Purple Glue Stick should be applied to the glass build plate to form a thin but consistent layer. The glue will remain sticky, which is useful if you are printing larger parts or if you are printing parts that are very thin at the bottom. And perhaps best of all, this glue just peels off the build plate afterwards, with very little cleaning needed, and the glue can be stored away for over a year without degradation.
This is a very high quality product, with it being the only third-party glue stick that’s recommended by Markforged. However, this glue stick can be difficult to get a hold of in the United Kingdom. Thankfully, we have a new batch in stock ready to go, so there’s no need to purchase yours from the US and have it imported into the UK.
This glue is also a great alternative from Bambu Lab Glue sticks for you to use on the Bambu Lab Build Plates.

Depending on your postcode your options at checkout will include DPD NEXT DAY, DPD 12:00 and DPD 10:30 options. Some postcodes will show "DPD TWO DAY".
Shipping to Ireland (Northern or Republic of) is a “DAP” service which means you have to pay any Duty and Taxes. Business customers must email us their EORI and UKIMS numbers.
PALLETS DON'T SHIP VIA DPD - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Some units can only be shipped safely on a pallet due to weight and/or size. Cut off time for orders shipping by pallet is 1.30pm, that’s because we need to book the job before 2pm.
Pallets are big and they ship on big lorries! If there is any problem with a dustbin-lorry size vehicle accessing your property, you need to let us know and we can request delivery by a smaller 7.5T lorry. If this is the case, then PALLET NEXT DAY may not be available.
Depending on your postcode your options at checkout will include PALLET NEXT DAY, PALLET 2-3 DAYS, PALLET COLLECTION HG4 2RN (organise your own pick-up). Some postcodes will show “PALLET 5-6 DAYS” etc.
Pallet deliveries are between 09.00 and 17.00 and we are unable to give you the ETA in advance.
We use a very reliable local supplier, and the pallets go in to the “Palletforce” network. Currently the network don’t use tracking numbers and you can't track online (coming in 2026). Call or email us to check on a delivery or collection.
