Slice Engineering Vanadium Nozzles
Slice Engineering Vanadium Nozzles are engineered for extreme durability, offering professional-grade abrasion resistance for users printing with carbon fiber, glass-filled, or other abrasive filaments. Hardened all the way through the substrate, these nozzles are designed to maintain internal geometry over thousands of hours of printing.
Key Features
- Extreme Hardness: Hardened and tempered to a minimum of 64 Rockwell C (Vickers HV 910) throughout the entire nozzle, not just a surface coating.
- Superior Hot Hardness: Maintaining mechanical integrity at high printing temperatures where other metallic nozzles often soften.
- Plastic Repellent Coating: Features a specialized surface coating to reduce plastic buildup and prevent "blobbing" or dragging through prints.
- High Visibility Marking: Orifice size is clearly engraved on three sides for easy identification without needing to uninstall the nozzle.
- Abrasion Warranty: Backed by a manufacturer's lifetime warranty against abrasion from filled filaments.
- Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured in the United States by Slice Engineering.
