Creality Sprite Metal Extruder Body – Direct Drive

With the new Creality Sprite Direct Drive Extruder comes a new Extruder Body that must meet the quality of this fantastic hotend assembly. The Sprite Extruder comes stock standard on Creality Ender 3 S1 series printers, with two different versions – one for 260°C printing and the other for high temperature printing up to 300°C on the S1 Pro. The Sprite Extruder has turned our head and its gorgeous metal body allows for smooth direct drive operation. This Official Creality Spare is the Sprite Extruder Body itself that features dual drive gears and smooth filament feeding.

It is in fact only the Sprite Pro Extruder that sports this smart silver-grey body, providing a sturdier material than plastic to withstand the constant flow of filament as you print. The extruder is one of the most used parts within an FDM printer, and it’s not surprising that the gears might wear over time. If the gears or lever on your extruder body become too worn, its hold on the filament will loosen and no longer extrude properly. The results are disastrously poor prints with under extrusion marks and multiple hotend clogs. Fortunately, your extruder getting old is the perfect opportunity to upgrade it. This metal Extruder Body will protect from scrapes and provide a direct drive path for feeding your filament from the top.

The replacement Creality Sprite Metal Extruder Body provides a quick fix to your under extrusion problems, offering an easy-grip lever and dual gears with incredible grip strength. The kit includes assembly screws and exact specifications to easily replace the previous extruder body on your Sprite Extruder. Fortunately, Creality is a brand that considers the end-users before anyone else, which means this part is relatively inexpensive to replace, so if you are having trouble with your Creality Ender 3 S1 series extruder, this Creality Original Spare is the perfect option to keep your 3D Printing adventures in full swing with little to no downtime.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
