CR-10S filament adapter for Hatchbox Filament

thingiverse

This is a custom filament adapter designed specifically for the CR-10S printer, tailored to accommodate Hatchbox 1.75mm PLA filament. After experimenting with various adapters and taking on the challenge of designing my own, I'm pleased to share the results. The inner hole diameter measures 33mm, while the outer ridges extend 50mm from the center, culminating in an outer retaining ring that spans 60mm in length and a total height of 78mm. This adapter seamlessly integrates with the original spool holder, requiring no additional modifications to secure it in place - simply slip it onto the existing flange, ensuring it's aligned towards the front of the control unit, then fasten it using the original nut. To minimize friction between the spool and core, I've incorporated a series of ridges into its design.
