Slice Engineering Mosquito for Creality Hotend

The Mosquito for Creality by Slice Engineering is a modular, high-performance all-metal hotend designed with complete integration, precise temperature control, and ease of use in mind. Its remarkable thermal efficiency and reliable structure with patented features, such as effortless one-handed nozzle change, make the Mosquito for Creality a powerful solution against heat creep issues, such as jamming, poor heat control, etc. 

It is a limited edition available only for the Creality CR10S Pro and Ender 3 3D printers. Please note that it does not fit the Bondtech DDX extruder. Also, the hotend is designed for the stock Bowden extrusion setup and is meant to be used with the stock 40 x 40 x 10 mm Radial Fan.

The Mosquito hotend series uses the manufacturer’s proprietary Bimetallic Heat Break technology that implies efficient heat conduction and diffusion. As such, these devices are designed for high-performance applications due to the ability to effectively eliminate heat creep. 

Alongside enhanced 3D printing precision, universal mount options, and improved noise reduction, the Mosquito for Creality hotend features advanced high-temperature capacity with heating up to 500 °C. This covers a full scope of currently available thermoplastics, including PEEK, Ultem (PEI), ASA, PC, Nylon, and more.

Highlights

Reliable against heat creep

Similar to the popular Copperhead hotend by Slice Engineering, the Mosquito series makes use of the manufacturer’s innovative technology — Bimetallic Heat Break. It involves the application of the lightweight, adaptable heat break produced from ultrathin, cold-worked stainless steel surgical tubing and sheathed in hardened copper alloy. Thus, the Mosquito for Creality hotend conducts 85% less heat than a standard threaded heat break, which allows it to effectively prevent heat creep, reduce jamming, and improve printing resolution.

Compact and lightweight design

Due to a compact, reasonably organized structure, the Mosquito for Creality provides more vertical build volume, while its low mass leads to maximum X-Y acceleration.

Simple one-handed nozzle change

With its rigid construction, the Mosquito for Creality hotend ensures enhanced protection of the heat break from crashes and other abuse. Moreover, the hot block remains completely stationary, which allows for a much faster and easier one-handed nozzle change.

Wide variety of supported materials 

The Mosquito for Creality hotend can heat up to 500 °C, which basically allows it to print with all major thermoplastics available on the market.

Always ready for use

The device comes with everything one needs to start 3D printing right after receiving the package. Due to the quick installation process, the Slice Engineering Mosquito for Creality hotend provides smooth and streamlined user experience.
