Fix for Small Spools Not Fitting on the FlashForge AD5X
This adapter is designed to solve a common issue with the FlashForge AD5X: many 43mm inner diameter spools don’t fit properly on the factory spool holder.
This model allows smaller spools to mount securely and rotate smoothly, preventing feeding issues and improving print reliability.
✅ What it does
Adapts the stock AD5X spool holder for 43mm inner diameter spools
Ensures a stable, centered fit
🔧 Why you might need this
If your spool:
Won’t fit onto the stock holder
This adapter fixes that issue quickly with a simple print.
⚙ Print Settings (recommended)
Layer height: 0.2mm
Infill: 15–25%
Supports: May be needed depending on print orientation. I recommend printing on the end so the number is facing up. This gives it the most strength.
Material: PLA / PETG
📦 Notes
Designed specifically for the FlashForge AD5X
Optimized for standard 43mm spool inner diameters
Snug fit—no additional hardware required
