Bambu Lab Hardened Steel Extruder Gear Assembly

The hardened steel extruder gear assembly is an essential internal part of the extruder unit. It consists of a driven gear and an active gear that cooperate seamlessly to feed filament into the hotend. Crafted from heavy - duty materials, this gear assembly offers long - lasting performance. If wear or clogging happens after extended use, it can be easily replaced. Thanks to its hardened steel gears, the extruder can print with tough engineering filaments such as carbon fiber nylon and glass fiber nylon. You can upgrade the P1P stainless steel extruder to a hardened steel one just by replacing this gear assembly. It's compatible with Bambu X1 - Carbon, X1 Series, and P1 Series. The reduction ratio is 9 : 53, it supports a 1.75mm filament diameter, and a wide range of filaments like PET - CF, PAHT - CF, etc. Made of plastic and metal, it comes in a 60*60*30 mm package weighing 50g. Each package includes 1x Hardened Steel Extruder Gear Assembly.

Using this Bambu Lab Hardened Steel Extruder Gear Assembly is straightforward. First, make sure your 3D printer is turned off. If you're upgrading from a different extruder, remove the old gear assembly according to the instructions on the Bambu Lab Wiki. Then, install the new hardened steel gear assembly carefully. When printing, you can use various filaments as listed, but always start with a test print to ensure proper settings. For maintenance, keep an eye on the gears. If you notice any signs of abrasion or clogging, replace the gear assembly right away. It's also a good idea to clean the gears regularly with a soft brush to prevent debris build - up. This will help keep your 3D printing experience smooth and efficient.
