Clones
How to tell authentic E3D hot ends? They do not have Teflon inside so they can do high temperature printing for materials that need higher temperature
"All Metal"
- The E3D All Metal hot end clone above has a Teflon liner. See thread - https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?152,556240
- Note that you can select between Teflon and no Teflon with this Ebay store - so if you have the right supplier, you will get the high temperature version? [1]
Max Temp for Teflon
