About this model

This is a sleeve that fits over the CR10 extruder preloader that locks the preloader open so you can freely load and unload filament without needing to squeeze the extruder open the whole time. No post processing required, just slide it over the stock preloader and you're good to go. (need to unload the filament to feed it through a hole in the new part) Leave a comment or a pic, let us know how it fits up. NOTE >> THERE ARE DIFFERENT STOCK ARMS FROM CREALITY THAN MINE AND THEY ARE NOT COMPATIBLE. MAKE SURE YOU EXTRUDER ARM LOOKS CORRECT BEFORE PRINTING. CROSS CHECK AGAINST THE DIMENSIONED OUT PICTURE.
