0.4mm Micro Swiss FlowTech Nozzle – Heatbreak In-Built

Changing your nozzle is a bit time-consuming, especially when you want to get to the next print as fast as possible. Sometimes, a different nozzle size will make all the difference. Or if your nozzle needs a replacement, the fresh start does wonders for your print quality. Micro Swiss is a leading designer dedicated to refining and improving this aspect of 3D printer components, and they have actually garnered an impressive reputation for providing some of the highest quality 3D printer nozzles in the world. This quick-swap 0.4mm Micro Swiss Long Nozzle is designed to fit their specialised Micro Swiss FlowTech hotends.

The 0.4mm Micro Swiss FlowTech Nozzle has a unique design with an integrated heatbreak that gives this nozzle its high-flow and quick-change features. These nozzles are fit for any version of the Micro Swiss FlowTech hotend, including for the K1/K1 Max, CR-10 SE, and Ender 3 V3 KE 3D printers. The FlowTech boasts a fast nozzle replacement process, as well as high filament flow and ensures no nozzle leaks. These amazing benefits are thanks to the Micro Swiss FlowTech Nozzle and its integrated heatbreak at the top, making sure that your filament has no chance to leak out. You can switch your nozzle while the hotend stays cold and with only one hand.

Despite using simple brass as a base material, the 0.4mm Micro Swiss FlowTech Nozzle is plated for extra durability even when printing some of the toughest materials and exotic filaments like carbon fiber. This greatly extends the lifespan of the nozzle, and also helps to reduce failed prints and wasted time and money, while also saving money on the plethora of brass nozzles that would typically be required to match the lifespan that these plated nozzles offer.

Note: This is a Micro Swiss Original Plated Brass Nozzle, supplied directly by the industry leaders in nozzle R&D and Production. This ensures premium quality and lasting durability, even when dealing with high-corrosion filaments like Carbon Fiber and MetalFill.

Typical Applications for The 0.4mm Micro Swiss FlowTech Nozzle:

These premium-quality Micro Swiss nozzles are 0.4mm in size, which is often considered to be the common standard in 3D printing, offering a great balance of printing speed and precision detail. However, if you are wanting to print larger objects at a faster rate, then you should certainly consider a larger output nozzle, while if you love to print smaller, highly-detailed objects like jewellery designs, personalised keyrings and other goodies, then a small nozzle like a 0.2mm or 0.3mm nozzle is ideal. For standard printing though, this 0.4mm size is perfect, and many Makers simply stick with this size as it offers the best of both worlds with very few drawbacks.

Within 3D Printing, there are a few brands whose hard work has made them stand out from the rest, with real innovation and the ability to not only refine old designs, but actually redesign from the ground up to offer more comprehensive upgrades for 3D printing enthusiasts and Makers throughout the world.

Micro Swiss is one such brand that perfectly fits this description, and since their founding back in 2015, the Micro Swiss brand has garnered world-wide attention for the quality, material composition and precision of their hotends, nozzles and other all-metal components. With a core focus on TwinClad XT Plated Brass Nozzles and All-Metal Hotend Upgrades for some of the most popular 3D Printers on the market, it’s no surprise that one of the easiest and most effective upgrades available to Makers are Micro Swiss Replacement Parts and Upgrade Kits.

In addition to the amazing 3D Printing components and upgrades that they produce, Micro Swiss also specialise in Swiss Turning, which is capable of precision CNC machining outer diameters as small as 0.0127mm, as well as CNC milling, tapping and post machining finishing for prototyping. These service offerings and correlating skillsets ensure that the Micro Swiss team is more than just capable of producing consistently high-quality parts, but also capable of identifying precisely where each part could use improvements.

As manufacturers and end-users of everything they produce, Micro Swiss is one of the most impressive brands we’ve had the pleasure of dealing with, and we look forward to all of the exciting refinements and developments that they are bound to bring out in the future.
