Creality Official Upgrade Extruder, MK8 Extruder Alloy Block Bowden Extruder 1.75mm Filament for Ender 3 Series, Ender 5/5 Plus/Pro, CR-10 Series 3D Printer

This is a great upgrades and it was easy to install. I highly recommend. It feels durable.

Much better than original unit that came with the printer, all metal and fits good on my Creality CR 6 SE, The diagram sheet is printed backwards to the extruder front, so a little annoying to figure out, but it was my second unit I had bought for 2 printers. excellent quality and should last, I dont know why the company didnt use it in the first place as the original was all plastic and lasted 3 months.

Installed onto an Ender 3 Pro and have to say the difference on my prints is night and day. No more under extrusion problems and actually feeding new filament into this is so much easier than the stock one it came with. No more fiddling with the end of the filament trying to find the hole that goes into the bowden tube after the gear. Slides right through and down the tube. Paired this with some capricorn bowden tubing which also makes a difference compared to the white stock tubing. So far well worth the money.

Fixed my problem the plastic one that came with my ender 3 v2 had a crack and stopped working correctly this one has worked flawlessly since I installed it.

A great upgrade over the stock extruder ... easy to install, feels more robust, and the feed hole actually lines up properly over the stock extruder ... the only downside is the Capricorn upgrade bowden lock fitting wont fit into this extruder, and youre stuck with the stock sized one (no issue, but just be aware).

What else can I say about Creality product but fantastic? I was having a problem with extruding so I upgraded this and the problem was gone. Actually my problem could be fixed with just changing the wheel gear but might as well upgraded the whole thing to this beautiful metal extruder. Look great.

Worked great on my ender 5plus

It helped with my 3D prints. It’s worth the upgrade.

I have an Ender 3 V2, and this extruder being aluminum was perfect after the original extruder smashed to bits on me. I also was not a fan of all the red anodized versions of this, and wanted something that didnt stand out so much, and this fit the bill perfectly! Pluses: Its aluminum, should last longer than the old one It has an upgraded hardened steel pneumatic connecter for the tubing It looks less clashy with the Ender 3v2 I cant knock stars off because the original extruder literally exploded on me, but suffice it to say this extruder should just be standard on all Creality 3D printers.

So as cheap as all the creality brand upgrades are, why tf arent they just included already when you buy the printer. I have had to upgrade this, the build plate, the board, add bl touch and I would have gladly just paid an extra $75 and not have wasted 7 days of print time and $40 in filament from failed prints due to sub par parts. This product was ok, but didnt come with all the screws, I had to go to the hardware store to get it together and get back up and running.
