Best Filament for the Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro
The loaded 2022 Ender: all-metal 300C hotend and a 110C bed, held back only by a brass nozzle and open frame.
Last updated: June 2026
The Ender 3 S1 Pro was Creality's fully-loaded 2022 Ender, with a Sprite full-metal direct-drive extruder rated for 80N of force, an all-metal 300C hotend, a 110C heated bed, CR-Touch leveling, and a PEI plate. That all-metal hotend plus the hotter bed drives the filament story: a 300C nozzle and 110C bed give it more high-temp range than most Enders of its era, enough for ABS, ASA, and nylon if you manage the open frame.
What the Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro prints well
Recommended materials for this printer:
No enclosure, so ABS, ASA, PC and nylon will warp and crack. Stick to PLA, PLA+, PETG and TPU for reliable prints. Carbon- and glass-fibre composites also need a hardened nozzle first.
The limit is the stock 0.4mm brass nozzle. It's fine for PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, and ASA, but brass wears fast on carbon-fiber and glass-fiber blends, so abrasives need a hardened-steel nozzle you buy separately. The 80N Sprite extruder is strong and feeds TPU very well. As with every open-frame Ender, ABS and ASA on larger parts want an enclosure since there's no chamber heat to hold them.
Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro specs that affect filament
It's an older machine now, slower than the V3 line and not Klipper-native, but the 300C all-metal hotend and 110C bed still make it capable. Worth it on a discount if you want the Sprite extruder and high-temp range. For speed and a stock hardened nozzle, the newer V3 models edge it out.
Filament notes for the Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro
- All-metal 300C hotend plus a 110C bed handles PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, and ASA.
- Stock brass nozzle is not for abrasives, so add a hardened-steel nozzle for carbon-fiber or glass-fiber filaments.
- The 80N Sprite direct-drive extruder feeds TPU and flexibles very well.
- 110C bed gives better ABS/ASA adhesion than Enders capped at 100C.
- Open frame, no chamber heat, so enclose for large ABS/ASA parts.
- Dry nylon and PETG before printing for cleaner results.
- Slower than the V3 line, so high-flow filaments won't show their full benefit here.
