About this model

This is an upgrade to make the extruder fan quickly detachable/attachable. Instead of using magnets, this design uses 'hooks/clips' to lock tightly into place. This was originally designed to fit the ANET A6 without having to modify the stock screws that keep the extruder stepper motor in place. This design still utilizes the stock heat sink, and has space dedicated for airflow from the fan. After market parts needed for installation: 4 - Countersink screws (1" in length) with nuts (used to attach the fan to the thinner quick connect plate). NOTE: If you are looking for the Batman fan cover it can be found here:
