For MakerBot and RepRap Hotends with M6 threadsThese premium nozzles offer low friction and improved hardness to improve reliability and reduce down-time when printing with highly-abrasive filaments. Starting with precision-turned 360 Brass alloy bases machined on a Swiss-style lathe, these upgrade nozzles are hard-coated with a specially formulated electroless nickel plating composite process. This coating forms a very hard and abrasion resistant surface with high lubricity (very low friction), improves plastic flow, and reduces the likelihood of clogging. Unlike solid stainless steel nozzles, these coated nozzles retain most of the excellent thermal properties that come from using brass. We highly-recommend these nozzles when printing with "filled" filament which are often abrasive (ones that are filled with metal, carbon-fiber, or glow-in-the-dark aluminate compounds) or when printing with "fiber filled" filament that is more prone to clogging (filled with wood-fiber, PVA). This nozzle has an over-sized opening of 0.6 mm for thicker extrusions and increased flow, and will require adjustments to the print settings. For direct replacement of stock nozzles, please get the MK8 0.4 mm nozzle. Compatible with the MakerBot Original Replicator (wooden), Replicator 2, Replicator 2X Compatible with RepRap Hotends with M6 threads (5mm thread length)
