Bondtech LGX Shortcut
The Bondtech LGX™ Shortcut is a special hotend that mounts to the side of the LGX™ extruder. With the LGX™, it forms a printhead that will excel at printing ALL most common materials and especially the soft and flexible. This add-on comes in two variants: Copperhead® and Mosquito® Looking for the LGX Shortcut Printhead? Click here! The LGX Shortcut only supports 1.75 mm filament. Designed To Be Flexible The Bondtech LGX™ Shortcut includes a reversible heat sink that can be installed on the left or right hand side of the cold block. The heat sink also includes a hole pattern for attaching 40×40 fans. Cooling Down the Heat Break Bondtech's tests suggest a 4010 fan is enough to cool down the cold block and the cold zone of the heat break, even with such a small contact surface to the heat sink. In case you have an application where additional cooling is required, try using a 4020 fan or 2 LGX heat sinks, one on each side.
