In stock, ready to ship.
New version with IDGA and new white plastic main gear and integrated drive gear for lower run-out, as of 5/10/23.
The Bondtech BMG extruder combines high performance and resolution with low weight. Together with its proven and highly celebrated Dual-Drive technology you can expect problem free material feeding.
The BMG works in both bowden and direct driven applications. Built in fitting for the E3D HotEnd and fits nema17 stepper motors.
The housing parts are professionally SLS printed in nylon for maximum strength and precision. Note: this extruder is sold without motor, bracket, or bowden adaptor. We do sell motors and groove mount bowden adaptors separately.
For 1.75 mm size filament only.
The Bondtech BMG utilizes an internal gearing ratio of 3:1 together with precision cnc-machined hardened steel drive gears to give you a compact powerhouse for all your applications. Whether you require high resolution prints with small nozzles or high-flow prints with big nozzles the optimized gearing ratio combined with our industry leading drive gears provides unparalleled pushing power and lightning fast retractions in a lightweight and compact package.
Bondtech Dual-Drive
The unique Dual-Drive technology delivers uninterrupted material flow without fear of grinding or slipping in even the most demanding conditions. Bondtech users the world over will attest that even in prints with thousands of retracts our extruders perform flawless, with unmatched precision, and zero damage or degradation to the filament.
Multi-material capability
The new BMG extruder feeds all material with high reliability, from slippery nylons and soft TPU/TPE filaments to highly rigid and sometimes brittle carbon-filled high-strength materials. The extruder is designed for 1.75 mm filaments, but has been tested to ensure performance of filament from 1.5mm up to 2.0mm allowing for high reliability regardless of the tolerance of the filament used. The filament path is fully guided throughout the extruder body and the housing maintains tight tolerances to the drive gears mitigating the chances of Filament Misfeed when the hotend experiences increased backpressure or highly flexible filaments are used.
Adjustable tension
The thumbscrew tensioner allows the user to fine-tune the pressure exerted by the drive gears onto the filament. This gives you the power to adjust according to your preferences and to optimize for the type of material you are using.
Quick-Release
To be able to do material changes in a snap, simply activate the Quick-Release lever to release the tension and pull the material to be changed out of the extruder, keep it activated and insert the new material.
Multi-application design
This new extruder can be used in a Bowden or direct setups and gives you the flexibility to choose what works best for your application. In addition it features an integrated hotend retention method compatible with the E3D-V6 hotends or others using the GrooveMount standard. Mounting your hotend is simple, secure, and wobble free by means of just two bolts.
Flexible mounting options
We have designed a standard mounting bracket, both in CNC and as a 3D printable part that you can download from our stl-archive for free. Our standard mount is CNC-machined in 3 mm aluminum for maximum stability. Please see below for available mounts.
The extruder can use any Nema17 motor with a standard 5 mm shaft. For suitable motors please select one of the below or use your own motor.
Weight without motor: 75g
E-step value: 415

Not bad, not great either.
Color: Blue/Grey/Royal Blue/Black
The towels were just ok, but for the price not bad. They definitely were not as impressive as the advertising and reviews made them seem though. I followed all the directions exactly, washed them in cold water, even stored them in the freezer next to ice packs, then used one during my normal walk/jog at the park on a hot, humid day today. The towel did feel cold initially, but that “cooling” sensation faded pretty quickly once it stayed against my neck for a few minutes. Literally after about 10 mins, I kept having to remove it and shake it back out to supposedly “reactivate” the cooling effect and every 10-15 mins after that, and honestly, who wants to keep stopping in the middle of a workout or outdoor activity every few minutes just to make a towel feel cold again? If a product is marketed as staying cold for hours, I don’t think it should require constant reactivation to maintain that effect. To me, it felt more like a lightweight towel soaked in cold water than some advanced cooling product. That said, I do still like that they are lightweight, breathable, and more comfortable than wearing a bulky neck fan like I currently use while walking, jogging, or while my son is playing basketball. I think these towels work better for that. They did help me stay a little cooler overall, especially because the damp material around my neck helped with the heat, but again I mean anything wet on your body in the hot son helps you stay cool, thus a pool, water hose etc. I personally think the “stays cold for hours” claim is very exaggerated. I’ll still keep and use them though because they’re convenient, I liked the individual packaging and clips they come with as it makes it easy to grab on the go and hold on to, and easy to throw around your neck on hot days, but I would not purchase them again because I don’t think they perform much differently than a regular lightweight towel with cold water.

Easy to use! Loved being cooler on the course!
Color: Dark Blue/Green/Black/Pink
Used this yesterday on the golf course! My sister in law had a little neck cooler that dried up right away and did nothing. She used mine to wet her scarf as I had the package! Mine did drip on my shirt a bit but it's only water and dried up quickly. Towel stayed wet through 9 holes of golf, happy I have them! I'd keep a larger zip lock bag for transportation to and from the course as if you don't get the zip lock perfect, it could leak. Lightweight, mine didn't have an odor, is longer than I thought and worked great!

Better quality than the no-name brands
Size: 3 Pack, Color: Optic Yellow
I’ve played with quite a few different pickleballs over the past couple of years, including several cheaper “no-name” brands, and these Franklin X-40 balls consistently perform better for me.
The biggest difference is durability. These seem to hold up much better to hard hits and regular outdoor play without cracking as quickly as many lower-cost balls I’ve tried. Even after multiple games, they maintain their shape and playability better than most bargain options.
I also really like the bright optic yellow color. They’re easy to track during fast rallies and remain very visible in different lighting conditions, which makes a noticeable difference during competitive games.
Performance-wise, they have a very consistent feel and bounce. There’s a reason these are used so widely in organized play and tournaments—they simply play reliably from game to game.
While they may cost a little more than generic brands, I’ve actually found them to be a better value over time because they last longer and don’t need replacing nearly as often.
Overall, these are my go-to outdoor pickleballs now. Durable, highly visible, and consistent on the court. Definitely worth it if you play regularly.

The Indispensable Standard for Outdoor Play
Size: 12 Pack, Color: Optic Yellow
As someone who genuinely lives on the pickleball court, having reliable equipment isn't a preference—it’s a necessity. The Franklin Sports X-40 Outdoor Pickleballs are the gold standard for a reason. From the moment you serve, the flight is true, offering predictable speed and a consistent, high-bounce off the court face, making every rally feel authentic and competitive.
The 40 precision-drilled holes ensure that they cut through the wind effectively, minimizing drift on those breezy days that are inevitable in outdoor play. I’ve hit these with powerful serves and vicious third-shot drops, and they maintain their shape and integrity beautifully, far outlasting many other brands I’ve tried.
However, let’s be honest about the one thing every dedicated player knows: you can never, ever have enough pickleballs. Even with the durability of the X-40, balls get lost in the bushes, occasionally crack under extreme force, or are simply needed for high-volume drilling. If you’re serious about the game, stocking up on these is essential—not just because they're great, but because having a full inventory is the only way to ensure the game never stops. If you’re looking for a ball that delivers official, tournament-level performance and holds up play after play, the X-40 is the one to get.

Bright, Smooth, and Worth the Price
Size: 12 Pack, Color: Optic Yellow
These pickleball balls are excellent quality and absolutely worth the price. I was hesitant at first because they cost a little more than other options for the same quantity, but the difference is obvious once you use them. They glide smoothly, feel like high‑end material, and the bright color is a huge plus especially in low lit areas where visibility can be an issue. They’re easy to spot on the court and stand out even when multiple games are going on.
The color is noticeably brighter than most pickleballs I’ve seen, which makes them easy to identify and retrieve. The overall quality and size really speaks for itself. I highly recommend them.
