Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Enhanced Titanium Thermal Heatbreak Upgrade for Creality: Improved Performance and Heat Efficiency by Michael Vargas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Accidentally upgraded to full metal. Use heat sink paste or copper nonstick for best performance

I didn't realize there were two versions and accidentally bought an all metal hot end for my Ender-3. Rather than canceling the order, I investigated the difference between hot ends and the only thing I saw was a thermal open. Since I was considering switching to all-metal anyway, I kept the ones I ordered. During installation I noticed that there was nothing but a grub screw to thermally connect the heatsink to the heatsink (to be honest this caused my nerdy resentment) so I used some automotive copper nonstick thermal paste to seal the to increase heat transfer efficiency. It was a very cheap hot upgrade and the product was immaculate, polished and worked great. Be a little careful with that. The (obligatory) thin neck can be bent and I'm sure it will be broken with rough handling. Do not tighten the hotend screws with the heatsink unevenly. By the way, these propellers also work on my trigger. Unwanted heat transfer from the hot end to the heatsink.

Pros
  • Additive Manufacturing Products
