Optimised for UV Resin Printers
Tailored specifically for use in UV resin printers, these FEP sheets provide a flawless release layer, enhancing the quality of your prints.
Easy Installation
Follow our straightforward general directions for a hassle-free installation, ensuring a perfect fit and tension for optimal printing.
Durability and Clarity
Crafted for durability and clear visibility, these sheets maintain their integrity and transparency over multiple prints.
Maintenance Simplicity
Easy to clean and maintain with a simple wipe using a lint-free cloth and Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA), keeping your printing process efficient and spotless.
Genuine FEP – The Reliable Standard
Genuine FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) film excels in various applications, mainly 3D printing. Known for its smooth surface, chemical resistance, and high insulating properties, it offers a robust solution for industrial and home-based printers. Its ability to maintain clarity under high temperatures and provide easy model release makes it affordable for producing detailed models. This makes FEP film a cost-effective and reliable choice for various printing projects.
Our Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) sheets are a trusted choice for resin 3D printing, offering:
• Exceptional durability for prolonged use.
• Smooth resin release, reducing the likelihood of failed prints.
• Compatibility with a wide range of UV 3D printers.
Available in various sizes, Monocure3D’s FEP sheets are the go-to solution for standard release layer needs.
PFA (NFEP) Film – Enhanced Performance
PFA (nFEP) Film is a high-performance release film engineered explicitly for 3D printing, particularly suitable for light-curing technologies. Produced via a hot neck extrusion casting process, it features ultra-high purity PFA (nFEP) resin—a complex copolymer blend that offers exceptional non-stick properties and high-temperature resistance, crucial for the demands of 3D printing.
Polyfluoroalkoxy (PFA), also known as nFEP, offers a next-generation solution for resin 3D printers, providing:
- Superior Release Properties: Reduces adhesion issues, ensuring smoother and more consistent prints.
- Increased Durability: Resistant to higher temperatures and harsh chemicals, making it ideal for demanding applications.
- Extended Longevity: Outlasts traditional FEP films, providing reliable performance over extended use.
Choose PFA for a versatile, robust release layer that excels in challenging printing environments.
Genuine FEP – The Reliable Standard
The ACF (Advanced Copolymer Film) is a high-end elastic separation film explicitly designed for bottom-up MSLA 3D printers. ACF offers excellent release properties and is made from a distinctive blend of FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) and PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) resins. It is softer and more flexible than traditional films, requiring careful handling. This film is particularly effective due to its significantly reduced peeling force and superior optical clarity, which boost printing success rates and minimize failures, especially with larger models or objects with extensive flat surfaces on the build plate.
Our Advanced Clarity Film (ACF) is designed for those who demand the highest level of performance from their resin release layer, offering:
- Exceptional Release Properties: Ensures effortless detachment of prints, even for highly detailed designs, reducing failed prints and improving consistency.
- Highly Flexible Design: Requires precise installation with a taut, drum-like tension for optimal performance.
- Delicate Material for Expert Use: Softer than FEP or PFA, ACF is more easily damaged and must be handled with extreme care. Avoid sharp objects in the vat to prevent tearing or puncturing.
Ideal for experienced users seeking precision and detail, ACF delivers unparalleled performance when used with care and expertise.
FEP, PFA & ACF | Release Layer Masterclass
Release Film Change: QUICK GUIDE
- Prepare: Set up a clean surface with a lint-free cloth and grab a new FEP sheet.
- Remove Old Sheet: Detach the vat, unscrew the frame, and discard the old sheet.
- Install New Sheet: Peel protective layers, align the sheet, and tighten screws evenly.
- Check Tension: Ensure the sheet is taut and sounds like a drum when tapped.
- Clean & Reinstall: Wipe the sheet clean, then reinstall the vat into your printer.

How to Replace a FEP Sheet – Step-by-Step Directions
Replacing a FEP sheet is a straightforward process when done with care. Follow these steps to ensure a successful installation:
1. Prepare Your Workspace
•Set up a clean, stable area free from dust and debris.
•Place a non-scratch, lint-free cloth on the surface to protect your printer parts and new FEP sheet.
2. Remove the Old FEP Sheet
•Detach your printer’s vat according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
•Carefully unscrew and remove the frame securing the old FEP sheet.
•Gently peel away the used FEP sheet, avoiding sharp tools that could damage the vat or frame.
3. Prepare the New FEP Sheet
•Take one FEP sheet from its packaging and peel off the protective layers on both sides.
•Inspect the sheet for dust or particles, and clean if necessary using a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol (IPA).
4. Install the New FEP Sheet
•Align the FEP sheet over the vat or frame, ensuring it covers the opening completely.
•Reattach the securing frame or screws, gradually tightening in a crisscross pattern to distribute tension evenly.
•The sheet should be taut and produce a drum-like sound when tapped lightly.
5. Final Checks
•Inspect the FEP sheet for wrinkles or uneven tension, adjusting screws as needed.
•Ensure the vat and FEP sheet are clean before reinstalling into your printer.
Tips for Best Results
•Avoid sharp objects near the FEP sheet to prevent scratches or tears.
•Replace your FEP sheet regularly to maintain print quality and avoid failures.
•Always handle the sheet by its edges to minimise contamination.
By following these steps, you’ll keep your printer running smoothly and ensure consistent print results.
