Micro Swiss All Metal Hotend with Slotted Cooling Block for Wanhao i3 w/.4mm Nozzle

Description

This is Micro Swiss All Metal Hot end kit with redesigned cooling block for
Wenham i3, Wenham i3 Plus and all other i3 clones with the following
improvements: Slotted Clamping system No set screw to ding and damage thermal
tube Significantly better heat transfer (this is a big one!!!) Easier
disassemble and adjustments Precise control on bore diameter Micro Swiss All
Metal Hot end Kit Features: All metal hot end upgrade for MK10 style
extruders. This upgrade includes a modified thermal barrier tube and modified
nozzle with modified cooling block. 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 than 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. Orifice size
