Despite being labeled as a replacement for the K40 on the Cloudray website, this is not a direct fit. The first mirror mount is much too tall and will require complete re-mounting of the laser tube to match the new height. The second mount is a good direct fit. The laser head will require a custom mounting plate as it both longer and of a different diameter than the stock K40 head. The new head will also reduce Z depth by ~10mm.
Other than the poor description concerning K40 fitup the parts are well made and of good material. Once fitted mirror alignment was significantly easier than with the stock mirror heads. Mention of needing a custom head mounting plate and/or warning that parts will not be a direct fit would be nice.
Update: I was contacted by the seller and offered recompense for the miscommunication and an update to the description to confer that this item is compatible with the K40 style lasers but not a direct bolt in replacement. Review changed to 4 stars for excellent customer service. The items are otherwise of excellent quality.
My laser head came damaged but I've purchased so many times from cloudray lasers and this is the first time that this has happened... They have already sent me a new one.
very useful for making a laser cnc cutter
