When I tighten the set screw that holds the hot end in place the screw walks on the tubular part of the hot end. This brace (the red part in the photo) keeps the screw centered on the hot end so it can be snugged up tight. The screw hole is tight so you will want to run a 3mm screw through it before you install it. The brace should not be touching the hot end. It works great but adds one more step to removing the hot end. Only time will tell if the PLA brace will deform from heat on a long print
