Titanium vs. Stainless Steel
When looking to upgrade your heat break for the standard E3D V6 HotEnds, the new Grade 5 Titanium heat breaks are the way to go. Titanium is strong material that is resistant to corrosion which is why it is often preferred in manufacturing industries. Grade 5 Titanium is even better as it is one of the best Titanium alloys due to is high strength coupled with its light weight. Since it is also less thermally conductive, it makes for a better metal for a heat break which calls for an improved extrusion experience.
Beautiful, Resistant Surface
Not only have these newer heat breaks been manufactured with a stronger material, it is also aesthetically pleasing as it has an improved surface finish. The improved finish is not just a visual choice though, because it also reduces extrusion force which further improves reliability. The manufacturing processes for all E3D HeatBreaks has been overhauled to achieve a better internal surface finish than ever before. The improved internal surface finish helps to reduce extrusion force and improve reliability on retractions which means they are less likely to break.
Questions
When it will be Available ?
Does this fit the V6 Stainless steel heater block?
The Prusa MK3/S heatbreak has a different bore than the standard V6 heatbreak. The bore is 2mm on the end that goes into the heatblock and 2.2mm on the end that goes into the heatsink. This is for better operation with the MMU (multi-material unit) retractions. Is this heatbreak compatible with the MK3/S heatbreak?
I am buying this as the 2.2mm bore is causing jams for me. Hopefully it still works with my MMU...
