Bambu Lab X1E Hotend Assembly
Description
Complete Bambu Hotend Assembly includes:
- Hotend with Nozzle
- Hotend Cooling Fan
- Silicone Sock
- Ceramic Heater
- Thermistor
- Retaining Clip
If you need to swap your nozzle, you can either replace the Hotend with Nozzle on your original complete hotend assembly or replace the whole Complete Hotend Assembly. The 0.4mm nozzle is widely recognized as the standard nozzle diameter for modern 3D printers due to its optimal balance between print quality and print speed.
Note
- Filaments with carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal, or other inorganic particles are prone to clog a 0.2 mm nozzle.
- For filaments containing carbon fiber or glass fiber, it is highly recommended to use a hardened steel 0.6 mm nozzle to minimize the risk of clogging and abrasion.
- Bambu PLA-CF and Bambu PETG-CF have been extensively tested and proven to have a low risk of clogging when printed with a hardened steel 0.4 mm nozzle, while also achieving higher print quality.
