Creality Official 5pcs MK-HF Nozzle with 2pcs Sprite Extruder Silicone Sock, Copper Alloy Nozzles for Ender 3/V2/Pro/Max/Ender 3 S1/Pro/Plus/Neo Series/Ender 5 Series/Ender 6/CR-6/CR-10/Sermoon D1/V1

This is a great replacement upgrade for the original nozzle on my Creality Ender 3. It is a very quick and easy installation. It works as intended and is exactly as advertised.

I used this kit to upgrade a hotend on an Ender 5 Pro. I received a bad cable but the seller was quick to remedy the problem. Things of note if upgrading an Ender 5 - This is not for the faint of heart. 1. The original carriage assembly must be trimmed and merged with the included carriage. (The ears for the timing belt are located side-side instead of top-bottom) This involves cutting off the ears on the new carraige, trimming the old, and merging the two. The included bolts are long enough to handle the additional thickness. 2. The X-stop needs to be moved further backwards to compensate for the rather extreme offset difference from the original extruder head assembly. I trimmed the OEM bracket and redrilled the hole to accomplish this; there may be options available on the common 3d print repositories to accomplish this without fabrication. 3. The cooling fan and its shroud will hit the front-most aluminum extrusion of the frame. I lowered that piece by about 1 using some 90 degree angle brackets commonly available on Amazon. It prints fine with the piece simply removed, YMMV. 4. Youll need to mix up your own firmware and set offsets if you want to use CRTouch. I set the probe to nozzle offset at -30, -40mm offset, and utilized 3 point leveling with a 30mm buffer on the table and it worked flawlessly first try. You will also need to set extruder motor steps in the firmware as detailed in the documentation provided with the extruder. Settings - As I switched from a bowden to direct drive, settings were obviously different. The first prints I made were excellent, but needed a little fine tuning to prevent over-extrusion zits. The settings Ive found work well to start with (Simplify3D) Retraction Distance - 0.70mm Retraction Speed - 40mm/sec Coasting Distance - 0.40mm Overall Im extremely impressed with this head; the cooling fan works well enough to nearly print sideways without support, and the temperatures at the nozzle are the most stable ive ever seen after a lightning-quick heating time. Very well done, Creality.

I have quite of printers that have the sprite pro on them and all have the same nozzle. This kit makes it to be able for me to change the tip. There are different sizes and have not printed other than the .4 This ranges from .25 upto .8 and looking at the hole the .8 is huge. I have not used them before and now opens the door to other options. Since this is steel the hotend will have the option with other upgrades to have the ability to print hotter too. Glass hot. Dont think so but other things. Got 2 new socks incase 1 rips or something. It will keep the temp there and not cause a fault because its missing. Well extra ends is always nice to have. Hope you have Good Luck printing and get these nozzles where they done cost that much.

I got these for my Ender 3. They fit perfectly and work great! I love the different sizes that allow me to print faster or in finer detail when needed.

I got a used Ender 3 V2 for a reasonable price but the previous owner had wrenched on the hot end something nasty and it was all banged up. It intermittently worked fine but was prone to clogging and I wasnt sure what the issue was. Curious about being able to print with different filaments, I bit the bullet and ordered the Sprite Pro. I was a little intimidated about updating firmware and changing settings that Ive never dealt with before but Im a tinkerer and figured the worst case is I can always go back to what I had before. Im happy to say that the installation went smoothly by referencing the videos by Creality, and with a little help from BV3Ds youtube (I didnt know what to do with the extra two connectors on the wiring harness). I also installed a CR Touch with it so that required new firmware anyway. The programming was all straightforward, just make sure to note the existing settings prior to flashing the new firmware. Adjust it all to what it was before except what the documentation notes on e-steps. Adjust the retraction in the slicer and were off to the races. It prints beautifully and nearly silent. I cant wait to try some TPU or other high temp filaments.

Be warned! This is not, as creality makes it sound, an easy thing to upgrade too! It took me months and multiple FB group help posts and a friend to get this installed and proper firmware installed!!!! Know what youre doing

Great replacement part for anyone with an Ender 3 S1 or S1 Pro. This one is a drop in replacement for the S1 Pro, and for the S1 its an upgrade due to the all-metal (bimetal) heatbreak. You get a preassembled package containing the heatblock, bi-metal heatbreak, nozzle, and silicone heat sock. Just drop it in and heat tighten and its good to go.

Arrived fast, didnt have any issues. Worked fine how it was shipped, but Ive since replaced the throat tube with a Copper + Titanium one because at the time, the titanium only throat tube was the only option. I did this out of personal preference, not out of necessity. I still use the stock Sprite Cooling set up right now, as I havent done much higher temp printing yet, but I have no doubts that this unit should perform well for higher temp printing. The nozzle that came with it works fine, but I did need to tighten it once I got the whole unit installed and heated up (while PID tuning). I have close to 100 hours print time with this unit and its nozzle installed without issues so far. If you are considering upgrading/replacing your Heat Block with a kit like this, just remember: 1- Be careful of the Thermistor and Heat Cartridge wires. 2- Be sure to tune your PID with the Silicone On 3- Make sure to heat the unit up and tighten the nozzle. 4- Readjust your Z offset. You may need to adjust your flow settings too, but I didnt have to.

I bought this for my ender3 pro and the only problem I had was that my printer didnt save the E step value I put in as directed by the little book that comes with it. After hours of trying to figure out what the problem could be, I went through all the settings and found that it had reverted back to the original E step value. TLDR: make sure to double check ur E step value BEFORE you print!

Depending on the system your using and your knowledge and ability this can turn into a rabbit whole of issues. The potential is there do your research and pay attention to the details. Like compatible the ender 3 Max the Max Neo is not listed different motherboard and screen cr touch although compatible no available firmware compiled for this combination at this time that Ive been able to find. New Neo firmware has just been released but dont see anything regarding the sprite. Will be uploading a cr touch/ sprite bracket for the Neo soon will try to fine tune a little more before uploading. Should resolve some offset issues with a simple small print.
