    Kapton SuperWide Tape 120mm x 22m

    A "SuperWide" roll of our classic Kapton tape! 120mm wide by 22 Meters long! It's all the great features of Kapton tape in an extra-wide roll that will cover build surfaces in a flash. It's the exact horizontal width of the MakerBot® Heater Board v1.1, so with just two cuts, you've got a fresh Kapton surface and you're back to printing. Easy! Great for heated applications, and insulating electrical joints and heating elements. It has tons of uses and is easy to clean up when you remove it. We know MakerBot® Operators really like our regular Kapton tape sizes, so this is just more of a good thing! This tape is 120mm wide, and the roll is 22 meters long.

  1. MK5 Drive Gear

    MK5 / MK6 Drive Gear Upgrade Kit

    This is a new stainless steel machined pulley for the MK4 thru MK6+ extruder. It is more robust and provides a significant (100%) increase in push strength for the filament drive of the MK4 Plastruder! This means more reliable extrusion, better feeding, and less stripping of the plastic filament when printing. Now made of machined stainless steel (304), instead of aluminum, the pulley will last significantly longer, and give users of the MK4 Plastruder a much improved extrusion experience! The MK5 Drive Gear also comes with a new spacer rod, specially sized, so you can reset your idler wheel and plastruder so you achieve maximum push! The newly redesigned, smaller teeth grab and push the filament better than ever.

  2. MK5 Themal Barrier Tube

    MK5/MK6 Thermal Barrier Tube

    We have worked long and hard to develop the magic bullet for MakerBot® extruders, and if there is a component that embodies this research, its the custom machined stainless steel of the MK5/MK6 Thermal Barrier Tube. With precision machined screw teeth, it locks into the body of the MK5/MK6 Thermal Core, sealing tight and completely removing the possibility of heater barrel-to-thermal barrier leakage. Not only is stainless steel an extremely strong and beautiful metal, but it also has one of the lowest thermal conductivities for a metal. This keeps the heat in the thermal core and keeps it away from your filament drive system. The MK5 and MK6's custom machined components are all tapped to 3/8"-24 thread pitch.

  1. Kapton Tape 6mm

    Kapton Tape 6mm

    Basically the best tape ever. Good up to 500F (260C). Kapton aka polyimide is a really excellent space-age material. This material is incredibly strong and has excellent heat handling characteristics. Its also radiation resistant, which is rad. We use Kapton tape for attaching the Nichrome wire to the heater barrel among other things. Its a fantastic bit of gear that everyone should have hanging around. This particular tape we sell is 1/4" x 36yds. This roll of tape is enough to do 10 or more extruders. Very handy.
