3D Printer Fan 40x40x10mm DC 12V with Steel Cover Plate

The 40mm 3D printer fan with a steel cover is an excellent cooling solution for 3D printers that generate heat during printing. With dimensions of 40mm x 40mm x 10mm, this fan fits perfectly into 3D printer designs with limited space, ensuring efficient cooling during printing. It can also be wired directly to any 12v power source. The fan can also be used for other general cooling options and also operates at variable and lower voltages, + – 6 volts upwards.

Using a brushless fan, it operates silently and consumes less power than traditional brushed fans. The sleeve bearing design ensures smooth operation. The steel cover provides excellent protection against accidental contact, which is particularly important for 3D printing enthusiasts who work closely with their machines.

This fan is a popular choice for 3D printer enthusiasts and professionals, as it extends the lifespan of electronic components and ensures efficient and reliable printing.

This 40mm 3D printer fan is compatible with several 3D printers, including popular models such as:

Creality Ender 3
Prusa i3 MK3S
Anycubic Photon
Anet A8
Monoprice Select Mini
FlashForge Finder
Ultimaker 2+
Printrbot Simple Metal
Robo R2

For extended compatibility, you can use a ruler to measure the fan needing replacement.

By using this fan, 3D printer enthusiasts and professionals can enjoy the benefits of high-quality, reliable printing without the risk of overheating or component damage.

The orientation of the fan is a factor to consider. Generally, it’s best to position it so that the air blows in a horizontal airflow position, rather than a vertical position. This is because the weight of the fan’s rotor can put additional stress on the sleeve bearing when it is oriented for the fan blowing upwards or downwards, which can cause the bearing to wear out more quickly over time.

It is also worth noting that when looking at the 3D printer, the fan oriented on the X carriage should be facing towards or away from you.

In summary, the DC 12V brushless fan with a steel cover is an ideal cooling solution for 3D printers, providing efficient and reliable cooling in a compact and quiet design. With its sleeve bearing design, low power consumption, and excellent protection, this fan is a must-have for any 3D printing enthusiast or professional.
