    Ender 3 Pro Flex Coupling

    Posted by Doc' on Nov 19th 2022

    I wanted to say thank you for the BEST 5 to 8mm flex coupling I have found and used to date. I used this coupling to replace the original Creality ones on all my Ender 3 and 5 printers. In addition I used these to replace the flex coupling that use just the set screws. Because of the closer bore tolerances for the 5 & 8 mm openings and because this coupling uses a clam shell style clamp that will not miss align the lead screw or the stepper motor shaft. This coupling functions perfectly with a T8 - Tr8x2 leadscrew. This set up allows for even step per 0.2 layer settings without using micro-stepping for a near perfect wall layer. This coupling has a great price as well. To date there is not a better one that I have found. My makers thought. Thanks again Doc'

    Coupler

    Posted by Matthew on Aug 27th 2022

    I purchased this for a DIY CNC project machine. It arrived faster then anticipated and the packaging was very nicely done. I haven't used the product yet but close inspection gives away that it surpasses similar products via. Amazon. This is one of many I need.

    really nicely machined

    I wanted to replace the stock couplers on my CR10s, these were recommended on a vlog I watch as being good quality. I'm very happy with them. They're more flexible that the stock ones and they are beautifully machined. Happy with my purchase.
