The dial gauge bracket setup for the Bambu Lab P1 and X1 series printers is a great addition for enhancing the quality of your projects. This kit is specifically designed to be printed with Polymaker Polymide PA612-CF, which is known for its superior rigidity and durability1. The chosen material ensures that the bracket will have the necessary strength to hold the dial gauge with security and stability to avoid false readings.

The WEN tools dial gauge indicator is an affordable option that fits well with this setup. It attaches to the bracket using an M3x18 socket head screw and a corresponding M3 nylon lock nut. The design allows for easy installation, as the bracket slips into place just like a normal hotend using the original hardware. For proper fitment, the rear cover plate of the WEN dial gauge needs to be removed. A replacement cover can then be installed using the factory hardware from the dial gauge.

This project has been pre-sliced with settings optimized for Polymaker Polymide PA612, ensuring high-quality results when printed1. The material’s excellent rigidity and ease of printing make it an ideal choice for this application.
