Stuck On It: The Magigoo Adhesive Guide for Every UltiMaker & Tectonic Filament

A warped first layer is still the #1 reason a print fails before it's even started. We just brought in the full Magigoo build plate adhesive lineup — 17 products covering everything from everyday PLA to PEKK. Here's exactly which Magigoo goes with which filament we sell, so you stop guessing.

💡 Why bed adhesion still breaks prints

Every filament chemistry releases from a build plate differently. A PEI sheet that holds PLA perfectly will let a nylon part pop loose mid-print, and the reverse is just as true — an adhesive dialed in for engineering filament can leave PLA welded to the plate. Magigoo builds a separate formula for each material family instead of one "do everything" glue, which is why picking the right bottle matters as much as picking the right filament.

🧴 The Magigoo lineup at 3D3

Magigoo Original & Magigoo Supergrip — the everyday pair, for standard filaments on standard or coated/flex plates.
The PRO line — PP, PC, PPGF, PA, Flex, HT, and Metal — single-material formulas built for engineering filaments, plus the PRO Kit bundling PA, PC, PP and Original.
The Glide system — the Glide Roller applicator plus 250ml refills (Supergrip, PA, PC, PP, HT) for print farms and multi-printer shops, plus the Glide Kit with Supergrip starter bundle.

📊 Filament compatibility chart

This maps every Magigoo product to the specific UltiMaker filaments and Tectonic-3D filaments we stock — not a generic materials list. If a filament isn't linked under a formula, we don't currently carry a match for it (see the special cases section below).

Magigoo adhesive → compatible UltiMaker & Tectonic filaments sold at 3D3 Technology
Magigoo product Formulated for Compatible filaments in our catalog
Magigoo Original PLA · ABS · PETG
Magigoo Supergrip PLA · PETG · ABS/ASA · TPU

Best for coated, satin, or flexible build plates specifically — same materials as Original, different plate type.

Magigoo PRO PP & Glide PP Polypropylene
Magigoo PRO PC & Glide PC PC · PC alloys
Magigoo PRO PA & Glide PA PA6 · PA6/66 · PA12 & filled nylons
Magigoo PRO Flex TPU · TPC / TPE elastomers
Magigoo PRO HT & Glide HT PEEK · PEKK (up to 150°C bed)
Magigoo PRO PPGF Glass-filled polypropylene No current 3D3 filament match — see special cases below.
Magigoo PRO Metal Metal-filled (e.g. BASF Ultrafuse 316L) No current 3D3 filament match — see special cases below.
Magigoo PRO Kit PA + PC + PP + Original The four formulas above, bundled — covers nylon, polycarbonate, polypropylene, and everyday filaments in one kit.
Magigoo Glide Roller Applicator tool Not chemistry-specific — pairs with any Glide refill above. Compatibility follows whichever refill you load.
Magigoo Glide Supergrip Same as Supergrip 250ml roller refill — same filament list as Magigoo Supergrip above.
Magigoo Glide Kit with Supergrip Same as Supergrip Roller + 250ml Supergrip + cleaning cloth — same filament list as Magigoo Supergrip above.

⚠️ Special cases & what's not covered yet

CPE and CPE+ (UltiMaker CPE, UltiMaker CPE+, AURA CPE) don't get a dedicated PRO formula. Magigoo's own guidance is to use Magigoo Original with a slightly higher build-plate temperature, since CPE and PET-family materials can warp otherwise.
UltiMaker PPS-CF is an ultra-high-temperature engineering filament that Magigoo doesn't explicitly list in its compatibility documentation (its PRO HT sheet names PEEK and PEKK specifically). PRO HT is the closest formulated match for a high-temp engineering resin, but run a test tile before committing a full job.
Support & soluble materials — UltiMaker Breakaway, UltiMaker PVA, PROTEOS Breakaway, and PROTEOS PVA print alongside your primary material rather than needing their own bed adhesion — prep the plate for whichever structural filament you're pairing them with.
PPGF and metal-filled filaments — PRO PPGF and PRO Metal are in our lineup ready to go, but we don't currently stock a glass-filled PP or a metal-filled filament (like BASF Ultrafuse 316L) to pair them with. If that's in your queue, ask us — sourcing is easy to add.

🎯 Which Magigoo do I need?

You're printing… Grab this
Standard PLA, ABS, or PETG on a PEI plate Magigoo Original
Same materials, but on a flex or coated plate Magigoo Supergrip
Nylon or nylon-CF (PA) Magigoo PRO PA
Polycarbonate or PC-ABS Magigoo PRO PC
Polypropylene-CF Magigoo PRO PP
TPU or TPC flexibles Magigoo PRO Flex
PEKK-A or another PEEK/PEKK-family resin Magigoo PRO HT
Running a print farm or multiple printers Magigoo Glide Kit + refills
Not sure yet / want the essentials in one box Magigoo PRO Kit

✅ Get set up

Every one of these pairs a specific Magigoo formula to a filament we actually stock — no guessing which glue stick to grab off a generic compatibility chart. If your material isn't listed above, or you're not sure which formula fits your setup, our team will match you to the right bottle before you waste a print.
