Designed To Be Flexible
The Bondtech LGX™ Shortcut includes a reversible heat sink that can be installed on the left or right hand side of the cold block. The heat sink also includes a hole pattern for attaching 40×40 fans.
Cooling down the heat break
Bondtech's tests suggest a 4010 fan is enough to cool down the cold block and the cold zone of the heat break, even with such a small contact surface to the heat sink. In case you have an application where additional cooling is required, try using a 4020 fan or 2 LGX heat sinks, one on each side.
Compatible nozzles
The hot block included in this product is compatible with Rep Rap style nozzles, such as:
Note: To use the Direct Drive Interface Plugs with the Slice Engineering® Hotends, it is recommended to use a PTFE tube between the extruder and the heat break. Below is some useful additional information:
PFTE Tube Lengths:
Old Mosquito/Mosquito Magnum : 10 mm
New Mosquito/Mosquito Magnum : 11 mm
Copperhead screw mount : 30 mm
PTFE tube should be cut straight on both ends
Slight chamfer inside is recommended, but not mandatory
