Smooth surface finish
Not only is it durable, but the surface finish on my prints is noticeably smoother compared to the stock nozzle. Highly recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their K1 setup.

Great durability, slightly tricky install
The print quality is excellent and the heat retention seems very stable. Installation on the K1 Max required a bit of patience to get the torque right without cracking the ceramic, but once installed, it works flawlessly.

Essential upgrade for the K1
If you plan on doing any serious engineering prints with filled materials, this is a must-have. The flow rate is consistent, and layer adhesion is improved due to the stable thermal properties of the ceramic.

Perfect for abrasive filaments
I switched to this ceramic nozzle specifically for printing carbon fiber PLA, and it has held up perfectly. My old brass nozzles would wear out in a single spool, but this one shows zero signs of degradation after three spools.

Good value for money
Does exactly what it says. It handles high temperatures well without clogging. I deducted one star only because the included tool felt a bit flimsy, but the nozzle itself is top-tier.

No more frequent changes
We use these in our small prototyping shop. Since switching to ceramic, we haven't had to replace a single nozzle due to wear, saving us time and money in the long run.
Q: How does the heat conductivity compare to a copper-plated steel nozzle?
A: Ceramic has lower thermal conductivity than copper or steel, which can result in slightly different heat creep characteristics. However, for the K1 series, the heating element compensates well, providing stable extrusion temperatures especially for high-temp materials.
Q: Is this nozzle compatible with the standard Creality K1 non-Max version?
A: Yes, this ceramic upgrade kit is fully compatible with both the Creality K1 and the K1 Max models as they share the same hotend architecture.
Q: Does this kit include a heater block or just the nozzle?
A: This kit includes only the ceramic nozzle, an installation tool, and a cleaning needle. The heater block and thermistor are not included as this is designed to replace just the nozzle tip on your existing hotend.
Q: Can I use this nozzle with pure metal filaments like aluminum or steel?
A: While ceramic is highly wear-resistant, we do not recommend using it with pure metal filaments that require sintering, as these often exceed safe temperature limits and may cause bonding issues. It is ideal for composite filaments like carbon fiber or glass fiber filled plastics.
Q: What is the recommended tightening torque for installation?
A: Please tighten the nozzle firmly but avoid excessive force. Ceramic is brittle; hand-tighten until snug, then give a slight quarter-turn with the provided wrench. Do not overtighten.
