Micro Swiss brass plated nozzle

Micro Swiss Silver Brass Nozzles are wear-resistant components available for a myriad of 3D FDM printers (MK8, CR-10S Pro, Ultimaker 3, Ultimaker S5...). Micro Swiss is an American brand that designs, develops and manufactures components for FDM 3D printers, specialized in nozzles and reinforced hotends.

This nozzle is manufactured from 360 brass alloyed with silver and a TwinClad XT coating applied after machining. Brass is the largest thermal conductor for nozzles, allowing to make parts of high surface quality. Silver is the component responsible for improving the most unfavorable point of the brass, low wear resistance.

But what really makes this nozzle remarkable is the TwinClad XT coating. TwinClad XT is a nickel compound developed to offer a very low coefficient of friction (0.08), lower than even PTFE nickel alloy. On the other hand, adding this nickel layer causes an increase in abrasion resistance, increasing the manufacturing power of the 3D Printer FDM and the lifespan of this nozzle.

The MK8 version of the nozzle is compatible with a wide variety of 3D printers and hotend: MakerBot Replicator (1, 2, 2x, 5th Gen, Mini, z18), CraftBot 2 and PLUS, BQ Witbox, BQ Prusa I3 Hephestos, Creality CR-10 (S5, S4, S, MINI), Ender 2 and 3, TronXY X5S, Tevo Tornado, Anet A8, Alfawise U20 and U30, Snapmaker 3-in-1 3D Printer, Geeetech (A10, A20, A30), Micro Swiss All Metal Hotend for CR-10 (M2583-04) and Micro Swiss All Metal Hotend for CR-10s Pro (M2591-04)

In addition to the nozzle types available, there are many other nozzles compatible with the following 3D printers: RepRap 1.75 mm, RepRap 2.85 mm, MK10 PTFE Lined M7, LulzbotHexagonHotend, Robo3D HexagonHotend, Wanhao i3 Mini,Wanhao MP Select Mini, High Flow 1.75mm, High Flow 3 mm, Afinia, Zortrax, AfiniaAll Metal Hotend, ZortraxAll Metal Hotend, UP Box, Afinia H800, Wanhao D5, PrintrbotUbis and MK9.
