While this is a DIY kit, it's essential to understand what you're doing before purchasing. Mechanical proficiency is required, This kit includes a base made of PU (80 shore D) and an arm made of PU (80 shore D) for extreme rigidity. It's important to note that this is a handmade product, so the surface quality may not be as smooth as a mass-produced part. However, it performs perfectly. The one-piece arm has a stainless steel holder and ball bearing, which eliminates worries about wear on the bearing holder after a few hours of use. The expanded base also prevents the stepper motor from contacting the aluminum block, which enhances the cooling process. Additionally, an aluminum bushing has been replaced with a 3D printed plastic pivot, ensuring greater durability. If you've been experiencing print failures with new filaments, the issue is likely the existing plunger on your extruder, which cannot adapt to the diameter tolerance of cheaper filaments. Even some Makerbot filaments can cause issues. However, this kit can solve the problem with its Makerbot Delrin Plunger replacement kit/Extruder Upgrade kit. The kit includes a spring-loaded ball bearing assembly that replaces the Delrin plungers on your Makerbot Replicator 2X. It comes fully assembled, and this revised version features a manual cast polyurethane (PU) construction, which can withstand higher heat than PLA or ABS (up to 120 degrees Celsius). Designed to prevent melting and warping in long extrusions, this polyurethane kit is a manual cast that replaces the existing plunger on your Makerbot Replicator 2. While it is also compatible with Replicator 1 (single extruder), it's suitable for any RepRap direct drive extruder setup. The kit comes with a gray and red swing arm and base, but you can choose the color for $4.99. If you're not satisfied, returns are accepted within 14 days. This product will ship within four business days, but international shipping may take around 2 to 3 weeks. There's no return or free exchange policy for international orders. The RepRap/Makerbot Replicator 2 Extruder Upgrade Kit, also known as the Bearing - PU cast kit, is a second-generation (MKII) product that was introduced in December 2014. This innovative kit incorporates improved materials and a new design to increase the durability and effectiveness of your extruder.
