CCTREE 3D Printer Hotend Silicone Sock Heater Block Silicone Cover for Creality Ender Series, CR Series, Anet A8, MK7/8/9 Hotend, Brown,3 Pcs

A must have for 3d pritners!

Its never stated in the description, so I didnt realize that you have to remove all of the insulation that Creality wraps around their heater blocks in order for these socks to fit as intended. Im not sure Ill be doing that to my CR10 and Ender-3, so Ill keep this set of CCTREE socks I just bought in the drawer until I decide whether or not its worth it. A custom sock covers all but the very tip of the nozzle so curling filament wont stick and melt to it. Thats the main benefit for me - that and the minor heat stability improvement the covering provides. Considering the Creality hot-end is already insulated and considering that this sock leaves the nozzle completely uncovered, there really doesnt appear to be much benefit after all.

Does what it is to do

The Mk9 Silicone Sock seems to be a bit small for my hot end. While it does hold on and doesnt interfere with my printing, the four corners droop down because the lip on the sock wont catch the top of the hot end.

My only regret is that I hadnt installed this upgrade when I first set the printer up...fits perfectly with my Creality Ender 3, so happy with this purchase.

works

great for your 3d printer, makes cleaning easy in the case of a gunk up.

These worked great on my elEnder 3 pro.

Works ok, but wont stay on heat block unless tapped on with kapton tape strips

Works great with my ender 2 and cr10 with the Swiss hotend.
