CHPOWER CR10 Supporting Rod Set for Creality CR-10/CR-10S/ CR-10 V2/V3, Upgraded 3D Printer Accessories

Im using this with the Fysetc Z Height 2040 aluminum extrusions for my ender 3 pro to have a Z height of 400 mm and with this Z Brace/stabilizer im losing 15 to 20 which isnt a big deal at all since the Z height is more that what i currently need atm. My only wish is that the rods where a single piece and used a right and left hand treads in stead of using 2 right hand threads. Only reason reason being as you tighten the rod youd be pulling the button head screws in and then youd use the jam nuts to secure it. Other than that I enjoy upgrade alot.

Parts seem sturdy and it didnt take long to install. THis was the replacement to a DIY set of brackets Id been using for several years and the quality is there.

I did a DIY support kit on my other printer and decided to avoid all the headache and pay more to get these. This is by far the easiest rods to install. It holds the printer pretty solid so now i can printer super tall prints and not worry about the frame moving. Making the holes were super easy and all the parts fit perfect. I would buy it again if I ever needed another on. It is a little pricer then if you were to do it yourself by buying all the parts but to me it was wroth it because of how easy it was. I would recommend it to others.

This might seem like a small nit, but I love the fact that every type of hardware came in its own labeled pouch. Nothing drives me nuttier than getting a dump of hardware that I have to sort out.

I had no issues installing on a TronXY X3S, CR10 clone. I did have to remove two screws in the base to tap the extrusion holes for bottom mount. Be careful when taping the extrusion. Back out the tap often to remove aluminum cuttings. If you are not careful, aluminum cuttings can jam the tap and you can break the tap off into the extrusion hole. I also used right angle corner brackets to better hold extrusion together. I highly recommend the additional corner brackets before the interfering bottom screws are removed.

Would like to give 4.5 stars but since thats not allowed it gets 5 let me start by saying I was going to print my own brackets and make one but honestly the hours and material that go into it would just take way to long. This is an all metal construction including the L brackets very strong. The reason why I would give 4.5 is both ends of the rods are right hand threaded and it should have on end right and one end left hand to just be able to turn the center rod to adjust the push/pull of the gantry. But over all its a great product and does what its supposed to add rigidity to your printer.

This brace.is the easiest to install no tapping involved, nice thick metal attachment plates and it bolts to the cr 10 perfectly. I wish everything I bought for my printer fit right out of the box like this item.

Looks great, best I have seen. It just needed instructions. I tapped the first hole without issue but the second hole I did not think about the bolt behind the hole and i broke the tap. So I had to make a bracket. Probably should avoid the tapping and have 4 brackets.

Excellent

product is well made. fast shipping.
