Want quicker heat up times? Having trouble keeping your hotend at temp when your layer fan kicks on? This is the upgrade for you.
You can hit over 300C with these on an all metal hotend but most 100K thermistors will not read this high. If you want to exceed 300C you need a PT100 thermocouple (sold separately).
- Reduce heating times
- Quick installation – just install and splice wires
- 12V AND 24V available – Select Voltage Below
- Wattage and Voltage Laser Engraved on Cartridge
- 2 METERS of wire attached
- High Quality Stainless Steel casing
- Works with most hotends that use a cartridge type heater
- E3D Hotends (Authentic and Clones)
- Creality Hotends
- Tevo Hotends
- Anet Hotends
- See picture for size and format
DIY Part Fitment/Installation/Wiring
This is a universal DIY 3D printer part. That means it will work on almost any 3D printer, but you must know what you are doing.
Our technical support does not cover selecting/designing/assisting in firmware setup and/or 3d models to install this part on your printer. If purchased as part of a kit from TH3D for a particular printer, then it will be covered under the kit when using our firmware package.
Electrical replacement parts usually will require you to splice wires into your existing ones for the part you are replacing (soldering and heat shrinking wire splices is recommended for proper connection).
Some of our universal electrical parts come with bare wire ends or plugs on them. These ends may or may not directly plug into your 3D printer. If they do not, you will need to splice the wires into the existing ones on your 3D printer.

I don’t think I can go back to using a 40W heater ever again. Heat up times are always under a minute. I also watched Tim’s youtube video titled “How To Video – Replacing Your 3D Printer Hotend – Complete with Fans” to understand how to correctly splice wires which made the install pretty easy.

I replaced one of the common “red tail” heaters on my Ender 3 after it quit working with one of these. The old one would get to temp by jumping a degree or two every second or so. So to get to 200C from 30C would take about 2+ minutes. For bed leveling, I had to set the recovery at 20 seconds to make sure I was back at temp. This monster heats at 3-4 degrees a second and I am at temp in less than a minute. Recovery during EZABL bed test is easily in 8 seconds. Sure, a couple minutes isn’t a lot of time for 3D printing, but when you are waiting to watch the first layer go down on the bed, it is great to be printing ASAP.

I print at 250C constantly. I can heat up faster, and maintain temp a little better compared to the stock 40watt heater, and fits perfectly in my Ender 3 pros MK8 Hotend. There is PLENTY of wire – probably more than you will need. but it works nicely.

Well, before I got this heater cartridge my life must’ve been so boring, I mean you spend like two minutes just waiting for the parts to heat up. Well, this heater cartridge heats up in about 20 seconds, and is actually very good at handling the temperature.
IF ANYBODY is skeptical before getting this all I’m going to say is Don’t be, the quality of this heater is phenomenal and makes heating times about twice as fast, and if you think you don’t need it, believe me you do, plus the price is not one that you can argue about.
To the makers of this: Thanks a lot for creating this, and keep up the good work, I love your work here and make sure to have a great day.

Put this into my Ender 3 heater block and noticed an immediate improvement in how quickly my nozzle could get up to temp. Only using it for PLA right now and I still think it is worth the upgrade from stock for such a reasonable price.

Top quality cartridge and heats up much faster than the stock 30w and 40w cartridges.
