Silicone Sock
Silicone Sock
This handy silicone sock will keep your 3D printer running smoother for longer.
Silicone socks offer small but significant changes to make 3D printing even easier, cleaner, and faster. They cling tightly to the heater block and last longer than ever before!
Made of a heat-resistant, non-stick silicone material these socks will repel build-up of molten plastic. This really helps with sticky materials like Co-Polyesters and filled materials that like to build up on nozzles.
These also offer a huge boost in temperature stability, particularly if you use high airflow cooling around the nozzle to cool the print. The additional cooling combined with reduced radiation of heat from the block and nozzle to the print really boost the ability to print great overhangs and bridges, all while keeping the HotEnd temperature extremely stable.
