E3D E3D All-metal v6 HotEnd Full Kit 1.75mm Universal (with Bowden add-on) (12v)
The v6 HotEnd Full Kit from E3D with Bowden add-on has been redesigned for your convenience from the ground up! This new hot end contains the same signature high-temperature performance for high-temp printing, as well as increased functionality for printing soft and flexible filaments.
Our inventory of this kit has transitioned to the new cartridge-type format for temperature sensors. This kit contains the new thermistor cartridge and heater block.

The v6 HotEnd allows you to print a wide variety of materials, from soft and flexible to sturdy and strong. This is possible due to the Bowden PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) liner tube through the hotend that you can extend into your extruder - this gives the ability to add the confinement and constraint needed to make excellent quality prints with flexible filaments. This technology opens new doors for your 3D printing aspirations.
With High-Temperature Performance, you can print with high-temp materials like Polycarbonate and Nylon - this also eliminates HotEnd meltdown failures that are common with PTFE designs. Even though the v6 has a PTFE liner inside the hotend the liner is never subjected to high temperatures so there is no risk of damaging the liner through overheating. Basically, this design is really in-tune with all the elements, so your prints will come out crisp and accurate.
The v6 has cut back on a bunch of bulk. This clean-cut version's overall length is only 62mm, and there are significant reductions in the X/Y dimensions by using the new injection molded fan duct.
Are you eager to start printing right away? Good. So are we - and that's why here at MatterHackers we praise the v6 HotEnd. No adhesives, Kapton tape, or soldering is needed to get started. The new v6 simply locks into place with a little screw, and the updated cartridge style thermistor makes installing the hotend (as well as removing) a quick and smooth process compared to earlier methods. The parts of the hotend just screw together, and the fan duct naturally clips in - this can be manipulated in different ways to suit your setup preference.
The v6 has kept its vivid thermal transition that promotes high-quality printing - this is a standard requirement with all E3D accessories and hotends. A sharp thermal break gives excellent control over material output, which provides more precise starts and stops during your extrusion. Essentially, as a printing aficionado, this means you will have a more authentic and keen print.
Everyone likes to have different options to fuel their creative fire. Well, another reason why the v6 HotEnd is at the head of its class is that it has multiple nozzle sizes to choose from, thus your printing dreams are limitless. The default nozzle is 0.4mm, which produces fantastic prints with a great level of speed, ease, and resolution. Collecting a plethora of nozzle sizes increases your ability to explore and experiment with different filaments and extrusion settings.
The printing options are endless with multiple nozzles!
The new Bowden coupling system sits entirely within the hotend, which means that there is no need for two separate 1.75mm products for Bowden users and Direct users. Instead, it has a 1.75mm Universal product that has the internal couplers installed. Direct users just use a short length of tubing to line the filament down into the hotend, and Bowden users can simply use a longer piece of tubing with a coupler to fix the other end to their extruder.

You can find assembly instructions here.
- Find a way to attach the hot end. This usually involves printing some kind of mounting piece.
- Modify your firmware configuration.
- Find a way to power the fan.
- How does my hot end attach to the printer?
- Can I modify my printer's firmware?
- If you want to use the Chimera, Cyclops, or Kraken, you must also consider how many motor drivers, thermistor inputs, and heater outputs your controller board has.
- Does my printer use 1.75 or 3 mm filament?
- Does my printer run on 12 V or 24 V, or some crazy combination of the two (i.e. a 24 V PSU with the hot end throttled down to 12 V using PWM)?
- Is my printer a direct drive or Bowden setup?
Questions
Will this work with a CR-10? Or am I limited to the V6lite?
Will this work on a tevo tornado? if so what steps are needed? thanks
Will this work as a direct replacement for an original equipment Pulse XE D-124?
Will this work as a direct replacement for an original equipment Pulse XE D-124?
Can I still download the installation guide for SeeMeCNC Rostock Max V2 - 1.75mm Universal (Bowden add-on) (12v)?
can i put this onto a monoprice mini v1, and would i need to do anything to the firmware of the printer, and if so, how would i do this?
I have a robo3d r1. I purchased the 12v direct drive kit. did I purchase the right kit? some of the instillation videos show the Bowden kit
What is the pitch on the Plastfast 3.0x16 screws for the fan?
Any timeline on when Rostock Max v3 installation instructions will be released?
When do you guys plan to have it back in stock?
Can I use the Bowden add on with my printrbot simple metal?
What steps do i need to install this into a i3 Mega and CR-10S? also does it include a nozzle? and i noticed there options for a thermocouple, and thermastat.. are these already included? Thank you.
Will this work with the monoprice select mini?
Will this work with an Anycubic i3 Mega (Ultrabase edition)?
Can fit on ROBO 3D R1 + (plus)
I built, installed and PID tuned my E3Dv6 I got from you and it looks really nice. But. No matter my PLA part cooling fan setting, no matter the temperature setting, it jams. It isn't the usual jammed-in-hotend-rebuild-the-hoten sort of jam. I can get the filament out, no issue. I have raised my printer temperature 20 degrees higher than I normally print this filament type, but no good, clear under extrusion, clear extruder grinding the filament. I use a "duster" disk to keep gunk out, but nothing is working. What should I look for that I am clearly missing?
What do you have to change on the firmware? If I adjust the machine to physically be at the correct distance from the bed as well as understanding that the new mounting will impact my print area if unchanged, is there anything else?
I have a Makerbot Replicator 2x. (Works only ABS and PLA) We need to work with 1.75 nylon filament. What kind of accessories do I need to change? Thank you
I have a Rostock Max V3. Has anyone managed to mount this on the V3? Is it worth it - that is what are the advantages?
What size ferrule cable crimp terminals would fit the thermistor cable, as the one i have supplied is too short so need to extend it.
How is this different than the Direct version?
Do you sell extension cables that fit the connector on the fan and thermistor, also the heater cartridge? I need them to be more than 2x longer then they already are?
i purchased this kit for my rostock maxx v2, but i cannot get the coupler to connect to the underside of the stock extruder
Do these come with the new silicone socks that are on the e3d site? http://e3d-online.com/E3D-v6/Full-Kit/v6-1.75mm-Universal-Bowden
I recently installed a E3D hotend on my rostock max V2 and I noticed that the old layer fan shroud that came with the stock hotend is very close to the print bed and has started catching on prints. Is there a modified shroud that needs to be used with the new hot end?
do you sell just the nipple of the bowded tube?
what is the maximum temperature usable.
What is the size of the coupler thread?
Is this compatible with the maker select?
Will this or on a Prusa I3 3d Printer of Ebay ?
I couldn't find the option to get a 24v E3D v6 - it passes all the way to credit info and still no option.
Is this hot end compatible with a Lulzbot Taz 2?
What version should I buy for ender 3?
This is not a direct drop-in part for the Ender 3. The hot end upgrade for the Ender 3 can be found here. Please email us at support@matterhackers.com for more info.
