Review on πŸ”₯ NozzlePrint Hardened Filament for High-Quality Nozzle Printing by Joe Fulce

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Prints beautifully, great price

Bought these a while back for the filled filaments thinking the price was worth it. The red thread showing through in the photos was clogging my plated copper nozzle, so I replaced it with one of these hardened steel nozzles. The difference in overall print quality is extremely noticeable. I've had all sorts of issues, even with standard PLA sticking to my coated copper nozzle (which is exactly what I bought to prevent it), corners were sloppy, and even with properly adjusted retract settings, there was some tension with every print. Prints with these nozzles are crisp and I haven't had any issues with clogging even when using 0.4 instead of 0.6 with full filaments. Less tension even at standard retraction settings. And I have a silicone sock on my hot end, but I've heard I didn't need to raise the temperature with it because of the poorer heat transfer properties of hardened steel. Very satisfied and worth at least a try for the price.

Pros
  • 3D printer parts and supplies
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
