Creality Official Ender 3 Extruder Upgrade Metal Drive Feeder 3D Printer Parts for Ender-3 Pro/3S/3 V2/3 Max CR-10/10S Gray Aluminum 1.75mm Filament Extruder

I installed a metal extruder on my Ender 3 Pro to replace the stock plastic one, and it’s been a great upgrade. The installation was easy — it bolted right up using the original hardware, and the filament path lined up perfectly without needing any modifications. The metal design feels way stronger and more durable than the stock plastic extruder. With the old plastic one, I had issues with the arm wearing out and slipping over time. Since upgrading to metal, extrusion has been much more consistent, and I haven't had any problems with skipping or under-extruding. The tension adjustment is smooth and firm, and it holds filament securely without grinding it down. It’s a simple, affordable upgrade that just makes the whole system more reliable. If you're still using the original plastic extruder, I definitely recommend swapping to a metal one — it’s an easy fix that makes a big difference over time.

Very simple to install and it works great. Definitely a higher quality upgrade from the factory extruder.

Works great. When installing this you may want to watch the you tube video. The screws have to be installed in a certain order. Also the one screw that the spring goes on is an adjustment for the tension between the lined wheel and the curved wheel that the Filament feeds through. Generally you turn this screw out about 2 turns.

As expected

It's a very good product but comes with no instructions and in some cases -like in my Ender 3 Pro- the gear was not removable so I had to keep the original.

This is, in my opinion, a great replacement for the plastic extruder that comes with the Ender 3 3-D printer. It is very simple to install and it works great. Not only does it work great, it looks great as well. I certainly would recommend it as a great replacement for the original, plastic extruder.

Most of these 3D printers are copies of the commercial ones and pretty generic. I took one look at it and knew it would fit, as it's aligned on the drive axis of the stepper motor (like 99% of them). My bowden mount on my Aurora A5S failed and broke. What can I say? it's plastic and Aurora does not sell the part that broke! I like the tension adjustment on this one, no more sore thumb, and less dust. It has a firm grip on the tube now, and I'm back in business! The instructions could would be better if they were steps. There's definitely an order to putting it on. I tried putting it together on my desk, had to take it apart again! Install the lever last.

I have an Ender 3, non pro, non v2. The motor i have has.a shorter stem, so I had to flip the gear upsidedown in order for the material to feed properly. You won't be able to figure this out unless you try extruding 100m with the bowden tube removed. I followed the youtube video from Irvine3d on how to calibrate my e-steps. I would have never figured out my extruder was slipping off the material until I did this. Before this, my print came out brittle and was having a hard time adhering to the bed surface. Also, another person on Amazon posted their gear flipped as well.

Jala genial se lo recomiendo mucho este producto ya lleva dos día activo y ya no se atora

Adequada e de ótima qualidade e resistência.

Yes this made a difference over the stock plastic one. No more separation layers! Installed in only few minutes on my Creality Ender 3 Pro. which has a 15mm motor shaft- no issue. Remember to redo your e-steps and flow calibration after replacement.

Easy to install and great quality

I had the original feeder arm break on my but even before it broke there was a lot of slippage. I think the originals have more flex because they are plastic. This one is solid and the tension can be adjusted very precicely. Game changer for me.
