The Volcano V2 adapter made of brass alloy is specially designed for use with Bondtech's CHT nozzle, improving the flow performance of a Volcano hotend with a V6 nozzle. It is compatible with all other standard-length V6 nozzles.
The lead-free and cadmium-free adapter is designed for temperatures up to 300°C max and is suitable for all types of materials, including abrasive materials such as CF, wood, and glow-in-the-dark filaments.
Tip: The adapter is more challenging to clean than a standard nozzle. It is recommended to consider cold pulling if you are frequently switching materials and colors.
Warning! The temperature of the hotend should not exceed 240°C when tightening the adapter, as this may cause a loss of strength and breakage of the material.
Installing the adapter on a Volcano hotend
- Required tools:
- 2 mm hex wrench (do not use a Ball End hex wrench!)
- Pliers for a firm grip on the heater block.
Installation steps:
- Heat the hotend (do not exceed 240°C!).
- Remove the Volcano nozzle.
- Attach the adapter to the included 2.0 mm hex wrench. Make sure it fits perfectly.
- Secure the heating block with pliers and carefully screw the adapter into the heating block from underneath, taking care not to strip the hex.
- Tighten the adapter with a torque of about 0.5-1.0 Nm.
- Install a standard length V6 nozzle as usual.
Remember to leave a small gap between the nozzle and the heater block to ensure that you have tightened the nozzle to the adapter.
