Overview
The hardened steel extruder gear assembly is one of the internal components of the hardened steel extruder unit. It consists of a driven gear and an active gear; together, they work to feed the filament towards the hotend. Made from durable materials, this gear system ensures long-lasting printing performance with challenging engineering filaments such as PAHT-CF and PET-CF. In cases of wear or clogging from prolonged use, users can replace only the gear assembly instead of the entire extruder unit.
Note
The P1 Series extruder unit comes with stainless steel gears. Users can upgrade these gears to hardened steel gears for higher wear resistance against engineering filaments.
Installation
For more information on replacing the hardened steel extruder gear, please refer to the Bambu Lab Wiki.
