Creality SPARKX i7 3010 Hotend Cooling Fan – 24V Ball Bearing – Genuine OEM Replacement
The Creality SPARKX i7 3010 Hotend Cooling Fan is a genuine OEM replacement fan designed specifically to provide continuous and efficient cooling for the hotend heatsink of the Creality SPARKX i7 3D printer.
Unlike the 5015 part cooling fan, which cools freshly printed layers, this 3010 fan cools the hotend itself, helping prevent excessive heat from traveling upward through the filament path. Proper hotend cooling is essential for maintaining stable extrusion and reducing the risk of heat creep, filament softening, and hotend clogs.
The fan uses a ball-bearing design, selected for reliable operation in the higher-temperature environment surrounding the hotend. It operates at 24V DC and is designed as a direct replacement for the original SPARKX i7 hotend cooling fan.
Product Function
The hotend cooling fan directs airflow across the heatsink to remove excess heat and maintain the required temperature separation between the hot and cold sections of the extrusion system.
Proper hotend cooling helps provide:
- Stable filament feeding
- Reduced risk of heat creep
- Prevention of premature filament softening
- Reduced likelihood of hotend clogs
- Consistent extrusion during long prints
- Reliable high-speed printing performance

Important Notes
This is the 3010 Hotend Cooling Fan and should not be confused with the 5015 Part Cooling Fan Assembly. The 3010 fan cools the hotend heatsink, while the 5015 blower directs air toward the printed model.
Always power off and unplug the printer before replacing toolhead components.
