Slice Engineering Prusa I3 Upgrade Kit - Mosquito

Unlocking the full potential of your Prusa i3 printer has never been easier with the help of the Slice Engineering Mosquito Prusa i3 Upgrade Kit. Designed for use with the MK3S+.

The Mosquito® Hotend features our patented ‘roll cage’ design that connects the heat sink to the hot block with surgical tubes. This unique construction permits the use of a very thin Bimetallic Heat Break™ that eliminates heat creep, reduces clogging, and improves printing resolution. The Mosquito® Hotend conducts 85% less heat than a standard threaded heat break and has increased structural rigidity, allowing for a One-handed Nozzle Change™.

The Mosquito® version of the Prusa i3 Upgrade Kit comes with printed parts to make the installation process as simple as possible. These parts are printed with black ASA (ASA is used for its high heat deflection temperature), but files are available to print your own parts in whatever color or material you prefer.

Kit includes:

Mosquito® Hotend

BridgeMaster® Nozzle - 0.4 mm

Mosquito® Silicone Boot

3D Printed Mounting Enclosure (Black ASA)

Capricorn Premium PTFE Tube (Pre-Cut)

Boron Nitride Thermal Paste

Dowel pin (For filling in the extra space in the thermistor slot on the hot block)

Hotend Wrench Set

Compatible with:

Prusa MK3S+

To use this kit on an MK3S printer, your printer must have the red PCB IR-Sensor (the black PCB IR-Sensor may not function properly with this kit) and you will need to print the following parts:

Printer Adapter

FS Lever

Extruder Idler

Print Fan Support
