Creality 3D Printer Extruder Kit, Ajustable Extrusion Force, High Quality Metal Extruder Feeder Kit, for Ender-3/Ender-3 Pro/Ender-3S/Ender-3 V2/Ender-3 Max/CR-10/CR-10S (Red)

Great

Upgraded my Ender3 V2 with this head, the supplied new thermistor and an uprated 60W heater (stock heater is 40W).Fitting was pretty straightforward (though the heater wires were a bit shorter than stock).On the one I received, the heater and thermistor can be inserted from either side and the silicon cover has cutouts on both sides so its pretty easy to go with stock heater/thermistor and stock cable arrangement.My CRTouch didn't need any mods, other than a slight change in Z offset.Heats fast (thanks 60W heater) and I'm now able to print faster than the 50mm/s I was getting from the stock hotend/heater. Currently testing with good results at 150mm/s with PLA so will probably do some more tests in 200mm/s-300mm/s range (did get some stringing, but slight temp drop fixed that)I also used the included thermistor which improves max temp to 300c for printing other materials. The 300 max temp requires you to compile a modified firmware... which I do anyway to get CRTouch and the Z Offset Wizard without all the issues with stock Creality firmware.

The media could not be loaded. Creality Metal Extruder Kit (Red)This is a replacement extruder gear assembly for a Creality Ender 3 and others. It comes with all the bits and bobs, including replacement screws and gear. It appears to be well-engineered being aluminium and powder coated in red paint.Fitting is reasonably easy, I copied from the reverse of removing the standard assembly, although I had to refer to the images on the listing for some of the assembly details for the spring and Bowden tube fitting.A few notes or issues.This does not use the standard screw-in, push fit for the Bowden tube, it uses a tiny plastic push fitting. There is no mention of the lifespan of this tiny plastic insert, it would have been nice to include a few extras as it can very easily be broken during fitting.The gear has a much finer tooth pitch than the original, although if needed you could always keep the original installed.When compressing the spring to feed more filament, only one side has a lever, this was a problem with my original plastic extruder as the fixed side broke off, with the new one, there isn’t a fixed side to begin with, so I did not gain anything in that respect, and it remains difficult to compress the spring to feed the filament.There were no instructions at all supplied, now it’s not a difficult job but a few aspects of the assembly were slightly different to the original, so an instruction leaflet would have been nice. Luckily, I figured it out from the images on the listing.So far it works well, no apparent slippage of filament but I will have to calibrate the extruder, or at least check it, as the gear wheel is slightly different.Overall, I’m quite pleased with this extruder assembly.

For those that have 3d printers, one of the 'consumable' items is the nozzles. If you print high temperatures or abrasive materials then you will start to wear a hole in the end of your nozzle that is larger than the intended specification. This means that slowly prints will become less and less well defined and other artefacts will start to appear.This set contains a range of nozzle sizes from 0.2mm to 1mm, with the majority of the nozzles being the more commonly used 0.4mmThe number of replacement nozzles will keep the average amateur printing for years

I bought this to "upgrade" my Ender 3 V2 Neo. Fitting is a doddle and the whole thing looks much neater and professional. However, I noticed, the 1.75mm filament just slips though the feed rollers, I can push it through and pull it out effortlessly and of course, it will not feed at all. It appears I have been sent a 2.85mm extruder by error. No problem, I'll just buy 2.85mm filament. The problem is that the feeder that takes the filament off the rollers is for 1.75mm filament. Really bad QA by Creality! looks like I'm putting back my old (working perfectly) Neo hotend and extruder. Really poor QA.

As usual Creality has blown it out of the water. Really impressed with this bit of kit. Works exactly as expected and was easy to interchange. Recommended.

Kit was good but the connector for the cl touch didn't work i ended up using the ribbon that came with the cl touch

Had very high hopes given the first print worked perfectly and ran faultless.By the 3rd print the heater couldn't reach temperature and each time it tried the temperature point of failure was lower, eventually wouldn't reach even 150 degrees.Wouldn't waste your money, opted for the spider 3.0 instead and working much better.
