Nozzles & Heat Breaks

M6x1 thread, E3D V6 style -- they drop into the 22 IDEX, Creality and most common hotends.

Pick by what you print

Same M6x1 thread on all three -- swap between them as the job changes.

M6x1 · Standard length

Hardened Steel

Fillers chew through brass fast. Hardened steel holds its size, so print #50 comes out like print #1.

Best for carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal-filled, glow-in-the-dark

M6x1 · Standard length

Brass

Better heat transfer than hardened steel. Your everyday nozzle for anything without a filler in it.

Best for PLA, PETG, ABS, PC, nylon, PEEK, PPSU, ULTEM™

M6x1 · Volcano length

Volcano Plated Copper

A longer melt zone for Volcano-style heater blocks, in plated copper -- the highest heat transfer we sell. Push more plastic per hour, up to 1.2mm.

Best for high-flow printing and big nozzle sizes. Keep abrasive filaments out of it.

Made by Vision Miner · 22 IDEX v2, v3, v4

Hotend Heat Break

The part between the cold side and the hot side of your hotend. It decides where the filament melts -- so when it clogs, the whole hotend stops.

Made by us

We make this heat break ourselves, so we control the supply -- and we know exactly what goes into it.

Fits v2, v3 and v4

The same heat break goes in every 22 IDEX hotend since v2. One spare covers the whole fleet.

Keep one on the shelf

A clogged heat break looks just like a jammed nozzle. Swap both and you're printing again.

Vision Miner · 10cc syringe

Boron Nitride Thermal Paste

Air is a lousy conductor. Any gap around your heater cartridge or temperature sensor means slower heat-up and a sloppier temperature reading -- this paste fills it.

Heater cartridges & sensors

Coat them before they go in the block. Heat gets where it's going, and the sensor reads what the block is actually doing.

Won't short anything

Boron nitride doesn't conduct electricity, so squeeze-out around your heater and sensor wiring is no problem.

Easier teardowns

It keeps parts from seizing in the block, so your next hotend rebuild doesn't start with a fight.

Comes out thick

A thick white paste that goes right where you put it.

Cap it between jobs

The luer cap goes back on, so the rest of the syringe is ready for the next rebuild.

Three tips for your tips

Always check your nozzle

Most bad prints we troubleshoot come down to a worn or dirty nozzle. They're cheap -- swap them often.

Tip #1

Tip wear

Abrasive filament can open up the hole with as little as 100g through it, and a worn-down tip drags across the layer below. Wider lines, rough surface, banding -- swap it.

Tip #2
