Are you in Australia and seeking top - notch E3D Pro Socks? This pack of three original high - temperature, non - stick silicone socks is perfect for E3D V6 and other HotEnds that use the E3D V6 style heater block with thermistor cartridges. If you're looking for the standard version, we've got you covered. Uncertain about this design? Try our new and improved socks! While we believe the new style suits most customers, we've kept this design for specific needs, especially when full insulation of the heater block and nozzle is desired. We suggest using these socks with our 0.15mm nozzles. These socks are a game - changer. They keep your nozzle spotless, free from burnt plastic. Not only do they clean the nozzle, but they also retain heat inside the hotend and away from the print. Made of heat - resistant, non - stick silicone, they repel molten plastic build - up, which is great for sticky materials like Co - Polyesters. They also enhance temperature stability, especially when using high airflow cooling around the nozzle. This combination allows for excellent overhangs and bridges while keeping the hotend temperature stable. The covers are easy to use; just push them onto the front of the hotend without disassembly. They fit tightly when cold and expand to the right size when hot, fitting all nozzle sizes from 0.25mm to 0.80mm. These v6 socks come in a pack of 3 as they don't last forever. Their lifespan depends on the materials you print and how you use them. With sticky, abrasive materials, they'll last over 100 print hours, and with less sticky materials like ABS, they can last almost indefinitely. All our E3D products are genuine, sourced from E3D in the UK. We're a print farm of over 35 printers, so we know our stuff! If you're confused or need advice, chat with us live.

Using these E3D V6 silicone socks is easy. Just push the covers onto the front of the hotend without taking it apart. They'll be a tight fit at first when cold, but when the hotend heats up, the silicone will expand to fit snugly. As for maintenance, since these socks are made of heat - resistant and non - stick silicone, they can repel molten plastic build - up. However, over time, depending on the materials you print and how much you use them, they'll start to wear away. If you're using sticky and abrasive materials, expect them to last over 100 print hours. With less sticky materials like ABS, they can last much longer. When it comes to which nozzle to use, we recommend the 0.15mm nozzles, but these socks fit all nozzle sizes from 0.25mm to 0.80mm. And remember, all our E3D products are genuine, so you can trust their quality. If you have any questions or need advice, don't hesitate to reach out through our live chat.
