Description
Upgrade your 3D printer’s thermal platform with the RepRap MK2B PCB Heat Bed. Designed for versatility and reliability, this dual-power heat bed is compatible with most 3D printers that accept the RAMPS MK2B standard. Its dual-power capability allows for seamless integration with both 12V and 24V power supplies, consistently outputting 144W regardless of the voltage configuration.
The MK2B features an intuitive three-point mounting system, which simplifies the bed leveling process compared to traditional four-point setups. Constructed with a 35μm copper layer and large, durable solder pads, this board is built for long-term thermal stability. For the best printing results and maximum surface rigidity, we highly recommend pairing this heat bed with a glass plate.
Key Features
- Dual-Power Flexibility: Operates at 12V or 24V with stable 144W power output.
- Three-Point Mounting: Centralized hole configuration allows for easier, more precise bed leveling.
- High-Quality Construction: 2-layer, 35μm copper PCB design with copper-plated holes for excellent thermal distribution.
- Uniform Heating: Double-sided design with a dedicated wiring-free side ensures smooth, even heating across the entire 200x200mm active area.
- Easy Wiring: Non-polarized terminals allow for flexible wiring connections.
Connection Guide
- 12V Setup: Connect one cable to terminal 1 and the other to terminals 2 and 3 simultaneously.
- 24V Setup: Connect one cable to terminal 2 and the other to terminal 3 (leave terminal 1 disconnected).
Package Includes
- 1 x RepRap MK2B PCB Heat Bed (214x214mm)

Important Safety Note: While the solder pads are large, we strongly recommend using proper strain relief for your power cables to prevent fatigue and potential disconnection. Always ensure your power supply can handle the required current draw (approx. 9.8A at 12V, 5A at 24V).
