Features

  • Upgrade Creality x BEN2C Nautilus Fan Duct with 360 Circular Cooling Flow: Creality x BEN2C Nautilus Fan Duct generates a tornado-liked air flow to eliminate all cooling blind spots and maximize the flow cooling efficiency, which has obvious improvement on the printing of ABS, PETG, PC and other materials large-size overhanging models than PLA limited by the cooling fan power
  • Better Overhang Printing Quality: Creality x BEN2C High Performance 360 cooling Fan Duct can facilitate your prints to achieve better overhang structures than the original fan duct under the same settings, reducing the use of supporting materials and printing time
  • Smooth Extrusion without Clogging: The carefully designed fan ducts eye of the tornado flow creates a high-speed flow free-zone to reduce the cooling flow directly cooling upon the nozzle, avoiding any low-temperature nozzle clogging
  • Lightweight Fan Duct, Better Print Surface: Creality 3d printer fan duct weight 20-30% lighter than the previous one reduces 3D printing resonance during hotend acceleration, also providing more lifespan to your 3D printer structure
  • High Temperature Resistance: Upgrade Creality x BEN2C Nautilus Fan Duct is made by Multi-Jet Fusion technology with PA12, featuring a smooth surface, lightweight, high strength engineering materials and high temperature resistance
  • No Cooling Auxiliary Fan is Required: Less noise you can hear and no cooling auxiliary fan is required to achieve high cooling efficiency, greatly reducing printing noise. To achieve same overhang print quality as the original, new fan ducts require lesser part fan power, which will also reduce printing noise
  • Nautilus-Honeycomb Structural Design: BEN2C Fan Duct Upgrade is naturally designed into a spiral flow generator, forming a shell-like corridor to channel the airflow. Honeycomb structural body design brings lighter weight and Sci-fi elements

  • 360° cooling.
Style: Creality x BEN2C FAN DUCT-C
The product fits well, though you must remove the fan from your old shroud and install it in the new one. Verifiable air flow all around the nozzle. Easy to install, looks and feels well made. Very satisfied!

  • 3D Printed in Nylon
Style: Creality x BEN2C FAN DUCT-C
I thought I might be able to fit this to my Aquila but haven't had the time and went another route. The head is very lightweight and really cool. I love printed parts for 3d printers, it just makes sense. Even some of the packaging was 3d printed. The description say the material is "PA12" which is a nylon and seems durable but they use a very odd wording to say it is 3d printed, "Multi-Jet Fusion technology with PA12". In fact, they do not mention anywhere that it is 3d printed in the description. ?? For that I deducted a star because it seems a bit dishonest, especially since all the pictures are 3D renders and not of the actual product. Come on Creality... ... show more

  • K1 Max version fits both K1 and K1 max

Works great. Good overhand quality. Blob of death killed two of my stock fan ducts. Solid replacement.

  • Not sure if it fits the K1 correctly.
Style: Creality x BEN2C FAN DUCT-C
The fan seems to work some of the time despite the settings not changing. I do like the idea but I'm wondering if this fits the standard K1 print head correctly.

  • Much better than stock - Just not a great value
Style: Creality x BEN2C FAN DUCT-C
Installed on my K1C the BEN2C cooling duct is much better than the stock duct. It is lighter and has an attractive design. Installation is simple and you can instantly have significant improvements in overhangs. It does quite well up to 80 degrees in my testing. It prints 70 degrees perfectly and starts to show some degradation around 75 degrees. Regardless, it does a very good job compared to stock. The duct held up well when printing ABS and there was no warping of the duct even though it is right up against the hotend sock. Unfortunately, the high cost ($36 on sale right now) makes me question the value and ultimately keeps me from fully recommending the BEN2C. I ran the overhang test against the $5 tbmaker MK7 skeletor cooling duct (self printed) with identical print settings (printed in PLA with fan at 100%). The MK7 had a cleaner 80 degree overhang. The BEN2C came close, but didn't perform as well. If you really care about the look of your printer then the BEN2C might be worth it to you as a drop-in replacement. If you mostly care about overall performance then you are better off using the money for upgrading the hotend and installing the MK7 skeletor duct which is hands down the best duct for the K1C printers. ... show more

  • Better Air Flow
Style: Creality x BEN2C FAN DUCT-C
The media could not be loaded. I guess I'll start off with the fact that Creality changed the listings AFTER I selected the correct part for my printer, a K1 Max. I didn't notice that they had changed the description until after it had already been shipped. Because of that, I held off on the review as I wasn't even sure that what I had received would even be usable. Then a week later Creality created 2 brand new listings, so again, I ordered the correct part from my other K1 Max. A long story short, I do not know what the difference between the 2 parts is. I did contact Creality to find out why they did what they did. I told them what happened, and they said that I need to order the correct part. Under the Vine program that is not an option, which I expressed to them, and they stopped responding. On this first printer I needed to replace some other parts as well, so I wasn't looking forward to the upgrade and put it off until today. The good thing is that the information that Creality gave me was wrong, and the K1C/K1 SE part appears to work fine on the K1 Max. The only thing that felt a little off is that the screw under the LiDAR sensor didn't want to go in, but I was able to get it in, in the end. I powered up the K1 Max and everything appeared to be fine. I turned on the fan at 100% and it seemed just slightly lower in volume. When I placed my hand under the nozzle, at first I couldn't really feel anything. Then I tried moving a finger around the edges and learned that the air is definitely moving differently. The air is now moving in sort of a vortex manner, where I could feel an equal amount of air movement in the entire 360° around the nozzle. With the original shroud, there is no movement of air at all in the back, with the most air coming from the front, and lesser equal amounts from the left and right. This should produce a more equal cooling affect for all prints. Does it change the amount of air needed from the auxiliary side fan? Maybe? The reason that I say this is because I stopped using Creality Print a very long time ago, switching to custom profiles that I created. Creality Print either had the fan OFF, or ON at 100%. The profiles that I created used a maximum speed of 75%, where I had it auto-controlled based on the type of filament. For PLA, it would spin up to 75% once the main fan was fully on. For ABS & ASA, the auxiliary fan would not turn on. I used the bed to heat the chamber as well. Will this eliminate, or reduce the use of, the auxiliary fan? No. If you need the auxiliary fan, you will still need to use it. However, if you are controlling the speed of the auxiliary fan, then you may be able to use a slightly lower speed. I do use the part cooling fan when printing ABS & ASA, but at lower speeds. When you heat soak the chamber to 42°C or higher, you won't see warping or curling. I added the video for a filament that I am also reviewing, as this is the first print that I made after installing the Shroud/Fan Duct. It came out absolutely perfectly. The filament cooled exactly as it is supposed to, which can sometimes be a problems with the original Shroud. TLDR; it is useful, and I do recommend using it. BEST ... show more
