All-Metal Hotend Conversion Kit for MakerBot Replicator Style 3D Printers with MK10 Hotends Using a hotend without a PTFE liner allows printing of materials that require higher temperatures than the PTFE can handle. This kit includes the 2 sets of the 3 parts shown - The nozzle and heater block connection are stainless steel, while the shaft that goes into the cooling block is aluminum (this is for better heat dissipation -- you want the filament to stay solid here). Also includes a tube of thermal grease for installation Compatible with the Micro Swiss hardened and coated nozzles. The included nozzle is a stainless steel, 0.4mm nozzle. If you currently have MK8 extruders (as our CTC printer did) you will need a dual MK10 cooling block as well, otherwise these won't fit. MK10 Heater Blocks are also differ from the MK8 style - be sure to pick up a 2 pack if you need them (and note the cartridge heater diameter - ours fits 6mm, but others are available) Adjustments to your slicer settings are often a good idea if upgrading from standard (lined) hotends, especially a reduction in retraction length.
