Creality Official Upgrade Ender 3 V3 KE Hotend Kit with 2 Pack 0.4mm Nozzles, 300°C High Temperature Heating Block, 3D Printer Parts All Metal High Thermal Conductivity Extruder Hot End

This is a great upgrade from the stock hotend it’s build quality and fit and finish is great, went on very easily and works well, heats up significantly faster and has stable temperatures compared to the stock hotend while the stock one is completely fine it’s worth the money if you print often or print at higher temps because the nozzle pushes the teflon tube higher up away from the heating element so the teflon doesn’t deteriorate and cause clogs or release toxic fumes, print quality honestly seems about the same as stock but mainly bought for the teflon issue and the faster heating.

My K1 clogged up and had a massive build up of leaked out filament from the hotend which ruined my extruder and the hotend. I struggled to remove the old one but once I got that out I got this screwed in and up and running in a few minutes so the installation was easy.printed good so far!

Do not buy this if you have a newer K1C. They will not fit the K1C. I have seen other K series have this problem. The PCBA tool board that comes with the machine has a different. Upgrading isn’t fun because thecreality 400103014 Is this one that works mit had the clips. Seems like the line who put together the wrong JST male. The thermistor jst connections band they don’t fit. So now to find the correct you will need to find the connection board or you need to find hot tend with claws. I think the line decided to install the wrong connection board. Finding this hot end isn’t easily and finding the correct board is even more challening. They put the wrong jst and it doesn’t fit.

Very durable hot end, improved my print quality in my v3se. The value for what you get is insane. It’s very easy to install and fit perfectly. Hasn’t clogged yet in a couple Months of use.

Worked okay for 3or4 test prints, but the Teflon tubing formed a clog that melted into a balloon shaped mess and every new Teflon tubing I replaced does it ever since.since

Well, doesn't fit the k1 SE I bought it for to replace a damaged hot end.Everything about it is compatible except for the thermocouple terminal. They used a different style that can't fit into the clip attachment female side on the SEs PCB.But not really the products fault. It's good quality, has all the tools needed and machined well. Very easy to install. If it actually fits.

A lot easier to swap out than expected. Had a blob of death and decided to replace hot end. Glad I chose the one with heat fins

Easy to install and replacement of the old nozzle. My old nozzle got so clogged up that I had to use a Dremel cutting wheel to remove it. This was any easy replacement as it included all the extra pieces like the heat sink that I had to cut through. If you need a replacement, I found this one to be more than suitable but wouldn't have replaced a working nozzle just because this is a new version.
