Excellent thermal performance

I was experiencing heat creep issues with my old plastic holder. Switching to this aluminum fixing block solved the problem instantly. Highly recommended for high-temperature filaments.

Good quality control

No burrs or rough edges on the aluminum. Installation took less than 10 minutes. Deducting one star only because the instructions were just a small diagram, but it's intuitive enough.

Perfect fit for my dual extruder setup

This aluminum block replaced my worn-out part perfectly. The machining quality is excellent, and it holds the MK8 throat securely without any wobble. My print quality improved immediately.

Durable and precise

The precision of the holes aligns perfectly with the extruder assembly. It feels much more robust than the original part. Great value for the price.

Saved my printer

My dual extruder was misaligned due to a cracked holder. This Bugaite block fixed the alignment perfectly. Prints are back to being crisp and accurate.

Solid upgrade, minor screw issue

The block itself is very sturdy and dissipates heat well. One of the included screws was slightly stripped, but I had spares. Overall, a great accessory for Makerbot users.
