Micro Swiss MK10 All Metal Hotend Kit .4mm Nozzle for WANHAO, FlashForge
Description
This is an all metal hot end upgrade for MK10 style extruders. This upgrade
includes a modified thermal barrier tube and modified nozzle. Thermal barrier
tube is made from 2 different materials. The lower thermal break is made from
stainless steel and the colder upper part is made from aluminium. Stainless
steel was used for thermal break because it offers low thermal conductivity
and aluminium was used for the upper portion because it has a lot better
thermal conductivity, to carry away any heat from the filament. All metal hot
end will let you print at much higher temperature then possible with original
PTFE lined one. Another benefit of an all metal hot end design is more
consistent melt chamber control. During slow extrusion rate, in PTFE lined hot
end, transition zone from solid to molten plastic tends to creep upward
creating more stringy prints. With all metal design a transition zone is
always constant, being located right at the heat break. With fast extrusion
rate, PTFE tube doesn’t have enough thermal conductivity to properly melt all
the plastic coming out. On MK10 extruders that limitation happens around 60
mm/s, depending on nozzle size. All metal hot end solves this problem, plastic
is surrounded by thermally conductive nozzle throughout its length. Kit
includes 1 nozzle and 1 thermal tube.
