Description of Creality 3D Silicone Aluminum Stainless

3D printer parts aluminum heater block extruder hotend kit is replacement parts for Ender 3 /Ender 3 Pro / Ender 5 /Ender 5 Pro /CR10 /CR10S /S4 /S5. 3D Printer Ender Silicone Covers are great replacement for the easily worn and torn kapton tape and heat resistant cotton that come with most 3D printers. This silicone sock is much more durable and functional when compared to typical stock soloutions for hotend insulation. These Ender 3 Series hotend socks will greatly help to stabalize the temperature of the hotend regardless of the surrounding environment temperatures. With this sock you can safely print more exotic materials such as PETG at higher temperatures while also using the cooling fans at full speed. Actively keeping the hotend very hot and cooling the PETG much quicker before it is laid onto the hotbed can help with success rates on more prints. 3 sets =3X Aluminum Heater Block +3X Stainless Steel Extruder Nozzle Throat+3X Silicone Covers.

Faulty Material Causes Printer Errors

As a result of my tests, I determined that this product is made from subpar materials that caused my printer to malfunction. The silicone wears out quickly, while the aluminum and stainless steel parts easily warped under heat.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Faulty materials led to printer errors

I need to replace these parts in my Ender 3 as the cheap bowden cable materials are permanently burned into the inside of the threaded barrel. I tried acetone and other solvents to remove the residue, but there was enough burnt material left that I wanted to replace it. seep into the gaps between the threads. This is a poorly tolerated product and I will be returning it.

Pros
  • . This sock allows you to safely print more exotic materials like PETG at higher temperatures and keep the fans running at full speed. Actively keeping the hot end very hot and allowing the PETG to cool faster before placing it on the hot bed can help increase the number of successful prints.
Cons
  • Wrinkled

The sock smokes like crazy

tldr; WARNING! THESE ARE NOT 100% SILICONE SOCKS - BURNING/BURNING. Installing the block and neck was easy. Everything seemed to fit. I used screws from a scrapped old print/heatsink assembly. I increased the temperature to 260 and greyish smoke is clearly visible. "Silicone" sock smokes (burns) like crazy. At first I thought I installed the heating element/thermistor poorly and it might be the insulation of the wiring, but I took off the sock and heated to 260. There is no smoke when the…

Pros
  • These Ender 3 hotend socks will help a lot to stabilize the temperature of the hotend regardless of the ambient temperature
Cons
  • disappear
