About this print
A cable management chain designed to organise and protect the wiring on a Creality Ender 3 printer. It mounts to both the heated bed and the gantry, routing cables through a series of hinged links that flex as the print head and bed move during operation. PETG is a good choice for this part, as it handles the mild heat near the print bed and resists repeated flexing better than standard PLA.

Printing Ender 3 Cable Chain
For Ender 3 Cable Chain we would normally reach for PLA — it is the easy, economical default and suits the majority of models. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material?
