Not where I'd like to be
Hello

I recently bought an Ender 3 S1 that came with a brass nozzle and I am looking to get a hardened steel nozzle for when the brass one needs replacing. On Amazon there is a plethora of nozzles that may or may not be decent as I don’t trust reviews, especially when on one listing most reviewers had had the nozzle supplied for free, so do you fine people of this sub forum recommend any decent hardened nozzles?

Are you planning on printing abrasive filaments? If not just get another brass nozzle. If you are then something from Micro-Swiss would be my suggestion as E3D don't make a MK8 style NozzleX or the new obXidian (not yet released). I'm never sure of the rule on suggesting places to buy, but if you don't want to use Amazon I can suggest places.

I very much like my Micro Swiss hardened nozzle. Been printing PETG, PETG Carbon Fibre, TPU and a rock PLA with it just fine for many many months. I think I actually get better results with my hardened nozzle with regular PETG than I do with a brass nozzle. Not gonna lie about it though, 20 dollars for a single nozzle is a bit steep, but I've definitely got my money's worth from it.

p.s. this is the one I got: https://store.micro-swiss.com/produ...igh-speed-steel-nozzle?variant=32024239177795 (Bear in mind this is the US store).
