- Heartbreak with an ultra-thin wall thickness as thin as Olmm, realizing excellent thermal insulation.
- Increased rigid support structure guarantees the heatbreak remains intact under the impact of external force.
- Integral frame rigid structure makes nozzle replacement more convenient without grasping the heat book
- The inner hole roughness of nozzle and heartbreak Ra04, which allow amore smooth movement of filament, resulting higher resolution prints. Standard hotel and high flow hotend have the same overall dimension, which realizes a zero barrier for interchangeability.
- The hotel is mainly composed of copper alloy material which has the advantage of faster heating and better heat dissipation.
Standard all metal kit, with overall high-temperature resistance up to 500’C.

Assembly Steps
-
Embed the M2.0*6 hex socket sorew from the inner 2 holes of the heat dissipation frame, align with the 2threaded holes of the adaptor, and tighten them with a 20 hexgon bar.
-
Screwthe heartbreak into side A of the heat blood with the 7.8mm open-ended wrench using a strength of about 4.5nm.
-
Carefully align the 4 supporting tubes of the heatsink with the 4 holes on side A of heat block, and press them tightly. Meanwhile, please note that the top of the heartbreak should b completely close to the holes on the top of the heatsink. lf not properly aligned, heartbreak could be damased during hot-tightening
-
Screw the 3 sorews as shown in the figure below into the corresponding sorew holes with the appropriate hexagon bar on side B of the heat block 4holes).
Attention: Excessive tightening of the M14*12 sorew may damage the thread, or lead to sorrow fracture and hex nut sliding teeth, etc.
-
Cover the heat block with the silicone sook. Insert the Bowden collect into the top of the adaptor, then insert the collet clip between the bowden collect and the adaptor to fix the bowed collect.
-
If you are using glass ball type thermocouple, put the thermocouple into the brass sleeve in the attachment first (the brass sleeve is shown in the figure below), and the port should be sealed with
the heat conducting silicone grease carried in the attachment, and then put it into the heat book and lock them with the head screw.
Hot- Tightening
-
Hot -tightening is the last mechanical step before Dragon Hotend is ready! It is essential for the sealing of the nozzle and heatbreak to ensure that molten filaments do not leak out of the hotend during use.
-
Using the printer’s control software (or LOD soreen) to set the hotel’s temperature to 285°C.
Wait one minute after its temperature reaches 285°C to equalize the temperature of al the components. -
Gently tighten the nozzle while fixing the heat block with a wrench, and finally tighten the nozzle with a smaller 7.Omm wrench. This will keep the nozzle close to the heatbreak and ensure that
the hotel does not leak. -
The tightening torque of the hot nozzle is about 2.5nm, which is about the pressure applied by one
