We are Australian Distributors of the infamous E3D-Online high performance full metal Hot Ends.
A pack of 3x high temperature non-stick silicone socks for the E3D Volcano and other HotEnds also using a Volcano-style heater block with thermistor cartridges. They will not properly fit the older screw-washed clamped thermistor-style Volcano heater block.
These socks will keep your heater block clean and free from burnt and blackened plastic. They don’t just keep the block clean, but also keep heat inside the HotEnd and off your print.
Made of a heat-resistant, non-stick silicone material our socks will repel build-up of molten plastic. This really helps with sticky materials like co-polyesters and filled-composite materials that like to build up on nozzles.
These socks 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 heat radiation from the block to the print really boost the ability to print great overhangs and bridges, all while keeping the HotEnd temperature extremely stable.
The covers simply push onto the front of the HotEnd with no disassembly - they will be a tight fit when first pushed on cold. When hot the silicone will expand to the correct size to fit the hotend snugly. The elastic material will fit all nozzle sizes in the range from 0.4mm to 1.20mm.
These Volcano socks come in a pack of 3 because while they are durable they don’t last forever. Depending on what materials you print and how much abuse they get they eventually wear away, although this design has a much improved life expectancy than the first generation. Even with sticky abrasive materials and a bit of abuse they should easily last 100+ print hours. With less sticky materials like ABS and gentler use you can get almost infinite life. Your mileage may vary.

The best printer (third) have ever had. Seamless prints with very user friendly soft ware. Would thoroughly recommend for anyone starting out in 3D printing. 👌
i love this filament
Exactly what I needed and exactly what the staff at 3D had explained to me. Very prompt return phone call to be sure I understood what I was getting, and at a good price. Thanks 3D
I used to own printers that either I have assembled myslef (Prusa Mendel) or localy made (Mendel 90) . This is my first enclosed printer and already after playing one day it look to be the one, well for time being :-) QIDI Plus 4 suits me well as it combined open software and well made printer suitable for large range of filaments. Adding later QIDI Box (AMS unit) will make chanfing filaments easy.
The support I received for my out of warranty UP BOX printer helped me make the cost efficient purchase that solved my heat issue. They pre-bent the cable to fit my printer specification which is helpful since if i did it wrong it could fail to work properly. All up great experience working with 3dprintersuperstore and FFC Extruder cable working as expected.
