What this nozzle is for

The Micro Swiss CR-10s Pro Plated Wear Resistant Nozzle 0.4mm is a replacement nozzle for the Creality CR-10S Pro and CR-10 MAX original hotend only. It is designed to provide longer service life when printing with abrasive materials that wear standard nozzles more quickly.

This version uses fine M6 x 0.75mm threads and is not compatible with the CR-10 Smart Pro. The nozzle is made from a 360 brass base material and plated with TwinClad XT.

Key features of the TwinClad XT plated nozzle

• TwinClad XT nickel composite coating is designed for very low friction.
• Low coefficient of friction is stated to be better than nickel with PTFE co-deposit.
• Hard, abrasion-resistant surface helps the nozzle stand up better to wear.
• 360 brass base maintains the core brass nozzle construction.
• Made in USA by Micro Swiss.

Why this nozzle is useful for abrasive filaments

This plated nozzle is intended for users printing materials that can erode a standard nozzle over time. If you are working with abrasive carbon fibre, stainless steel, wood filled, or other metal filled filaments, the wear-resistant coating can greatly improve nozzle life.

Where a 0.4mm wear resistant nozzle makes sense

A 0.4mm plated nozzle is a practical choice for everyday printing when you need compatibility with filled and abrasive filaments without moving away from a common nozzle size. It suits makers and small production users who want to keep using speciality composites on a compatible CR-10S Pro or CR-10 MAX original hotend.
