MK8 Remote Printer Head (Right Hand) with Brass Pneumatic Push-In-Fittings
MK8 remote printer head for Bowden extrusion systems
The MK8 Remote Printer Head (Right Hand) is a high-performance extruder assembly built for Bowden-style 3D printing setups. The design supports precise filament control and smooth extrusion, making the assembly well suited to high-speed and high-precision printing applications.
This Bowden extruder assembly is configured to improve filament handling while reducing moving mass on the printer. The result is more efficient filament feeding and improved print quality in compatible Bowden systems.
Key features of the right-hand MK8 extruder assembly
- Designed for Bowden-style setups to support remote extrusion and controlled filament delivery
- Brass pneumatic push-in fittings provide a secure and reliable connection to the Bowden tube
- Reduced filament drag helps maintain consistent feeding during printing
- Right-hand orientation suits specific printer configurations that require this layout
- Pre-assembled main unit simplifies replacement or upgrade installation
- Tension adjustment hardware allows filament pressure control
- Pre-installed spring and idler arm assembly supports smooth operation
What is included in the kit
- 1x MK8 Remote Printer Head (Right Hand) — pre-assembled
- 2x Brass Pneumatic Push-In Fittings — for secure Bowden tube attachment
