Description

These nozzles are engineered for ultimate high temperature performance. Made from a special high temperature copper alloy with a softening point of well above 500°C, and with much-increased thermal conductivity, these copper nozzles are perfect for high temperature applications, while working perfectly with everyday filaments like PLA, ABS and spoolWorks EDGE. In addition to high temperature performance these nozzles have an advanced nickel-based plating, considerably reducing the adhesion of plastic to the nozzle. This is great for everyday filaments keeping things clean and shiny, but is particularly important at temperatures above 300°C where a silicone sock can't be used. Copper has more than 3x the thermal conductivity of brass, and the copper alloy used by E3D has been hardened and treated to reduce the oxidation that occurs in copper at high temperatures. The higher thermal conductivity will also slightly increase your heat-up times, and can provide tighter temperature control. This copper-alloy is very temperature resilient, and will not start to soften or anneal until way beyond 500°C, making it perfect for the high-temperature printing that other nozzles can't handle.

Description

Compatible with any 3D printers that use the E3D V6 ecosystem (M6 thread), including Prusa i3 and i3 MK2 3D printers. The internal geometry of V6 Nozzles is optimised to reduce back-pressure, ensuring a smooth, easy flow of filament while improving the effectiveness of retraction. The flat surface tip of the nozzle which flattens down the layer is custom machined to each nozzle size. A small nozzle tip gives you high precision, and a wide nozzle tip assists in the smooth printing of larger layers. All nozzles in the series are now individually identifiable with markings on the flats of the hex head making them even more convenient to work with. See the table for identification.
