Perfect for engineering filaments
I use this primarily for printing Polycarbonate and Nylon. The water cooling keeps the thermal barrier effective even during long prints. Highly recommended for advanced users.

Good product, tricky setup
The hardware itself is high quality, but setting up the water loops was more complex than I expected for a beginner. Once running, it works well, but be prepared for some trial and error.

Great performance but needs a pump
The hotend works fantastic once you have a proper water circulation setup. Just remember this kit does not include the water pump or reservoir, so plan accordingly. Prints are very consistent.

Solid upgrade for E3D clones
Fits perfectly on my modified printer frame. The water fittings are standard size which makes sourcing tubing easy. Deducting one star because the included thermal paste quantity was a bit low.

Stable temperatures under load
Temperature stability is impressive. I monitored the thermistor readings during a 20-hour print and there were virtually no fluctuations. The machining on the aluminum block is precise.

Excellent cooling for high-speed prints
This water-cooled extruder kit solved my heat creep issues completely. I can now print at much higher speeds without clogging. The build quality is solid and installation was straightforward.
Q: What is the thread size for the water fittings?
A: The water fittings use a standard G1/8 inch thread, which is compatible with most common PC water cooling tubing and connectors.
Q: How do I prevent condensation on the cold block?
A: To prevent condensation, ensure your water temperature is not too low relative to the ambient room temperature. Using distilled water and insulating the cold block slightly can also help in humid environments.
Q: Does this kit include the water pump and radiator?
A: No, this kit includes only the water-cooled hotend assembly, nozzle, and mounting hardware. You will need to source a water pump, tubing, and a radiator or reservoir separately.
Q: Is this compatible with 24V power supplies?
A: Yes, the heater cartridge in this kit is designed to work with both 12V and 24V power systems. Please ensure your firmware settings match your voltage before heating.
Q: Can I use this with flexible filaments like TPU?
A: Yes, you can print TPU with this hotend. However, because it is a direct drive style setup often used with water cooling, ensure your retraction settings are tuned correctly to prevent jams.
