The Copperhead Heat Sink - Groove Mount

If you’ve been keeping an eye on all the exciting new goods that we get in stock each month, you will have definitely noticed the arrival of The Mosquito Hotend from Slice Engineering, which is a true masterpiece that delivers premium print quality at amazing speeds due to the unique ultra-low-weight design. However, you may have also noticed that the price of the Mosquito Hotend also tends to waver towards the premium side, and this is why, when we saw the development of The Copperhead DIY Hotend from Slice Engineering, we just knew that this was an ideal hotend solution for Makers who love the premium quality of the Mosquito Hotend, but don’t love the premium price tag.

The Copperhead Heat Sink is one of the three key components that make up the Copperhead DIY Hotend, and works in conjunction with The Copperhead Hot Block and Copperhead Standard Heat Break variant. However, because of the cool modular style of the Copperhead Hotend, you don’t have to buy all three parts at once, and can instead choose to upgrade specific parts as and when you need to. This makes the premium quality of the Copperhead Hotend far more affordable for average Makers, ensuring the premium print quality and high speeds are accessible for everyone who really wants (or needs) it.

This particular Copperhead Heat Sink features a Groove Mount to accommodate Direct Drive Extruders, allowing you to simply swap out previous Cooling Towers and connect up direct drive up directly into the top of this unit. However, if you have a Bowden Style Extruder, or plan on changing to Bowden during your upgrade process, then be sure to check out the Copperhead Heat Sink Screw Mount variant, which is equipped with a built-in screw mount for easy Bowden connector compatibility.
