ZODIAC Bi-METAL Heatbreak (Hemera)
What the ZODIAC Bi-METAL Heatbreak (Hemera) Does
ZODIAC Bi-METAL Heatbreak (Hemera) is a titanium heatbreak for Hemera-based extrusion setups that helps keep the melt zone controlled and consistent. The low thermal conductivity of titanium supports precise, defect-free extrusion by helping filament melt only where it is meant to.
ZODIAC heatbreaks are designed to complement the brand's nozzle range. The combination of low heat transfer, wear resistance, and a polished internal channel is intended to improve filament movement through the hotend while reducing the chance of clogging or blocking.
Key Features and Benefits
- Made of titanium: Titanium provides very low thermal conductivity and strong wear resistance for demanding 3D printing use.
- Low thermal conductivity: Rated at approximately 22 W/mK-1, the heatbreak helps isolate heat so the extrusion process remains more controlled.
- Polished filament channel: The internal channel is precision drilled and polished to create a smooth internal surface.
- Precision-made construction: The heatbreak is manufactured for accurate filament guidance through the hotend.
- Reduced clogging risk: Smooth internal surfaces are intended to prevent clogging or blocking during extrusion.
- 100% quality control: Each part undergoes full quality control and is delivered only in perfect condition.
Use Cases for Hemera Hotend Performance
This heatbreak is suited to users who want more reliable thermal separation in a Hemera hotend or extruder assembly. The low-conductivity titanium construction helps maintain a better-defined transition zone, which is useful when print consistency and cleaner extrusion are priorities.
The polished internal filament path also makes the ZODIAC heatbreak a practical choice for setups where smooth filament travel matters. For users troubleshooting clogging, blocking, or inconsistent melt behaviour, a precision-drilled and polished heatbreak can help improve the extrusion path.
