V6 All-Metal HotEnd 1.75mm Direct 12V Original E3D

The V6 is our flagship HotEnd featuring an all-metal design with high-temperature performance. The V6 is an incredibly versatile HotEnd allowing a wide variety of filaments to be used as standard. Whether you’d like to experiment with more advanced materials or print at different resolutions and sizes, our V6 ecosystem is suited for every application.

High-temperature performance:
The benefit of an all-metal design means the V6 can comfortably reach 285°C with the supplied thermistor. If you’d like to print at higher temperatures (up to 500°C) then you can simply swap the thermistor with a PT100 or thermocouple (may require additional electronics). This allows you to print standard materials such as PLA, PETG and ABS as well as high-temperature materials such as Polycarbonate, Ultem, Nylon and PEEK.

Easy to use:
The V6 features a cartridge-style heater block, enabling a no-fuss approach to replacing both heater cartridges and temperature sensors. Replacement thermistors, PT100’s and thermocouples can be slid into place and secured with a grub screw, ensuring maintenance is simple and painless.

Precise:
Our all-metal heatbreak maintains a sharp thermal break to provide better control over filament output; improving start and stops when extruding, as well as more effective retraction, combating oozing and stringing. The all-metal heatbreak features a refined internal surface finish to reduce extrusion force and improve the reliability of retractions.
