BuildPi E3D V5V6 Volcano Style Replacement Heater Block

Replaces heater blocks that use the E3D Volcano Style hot end V5/V6 The Volcano hot end is designed to melt filament at a much higher rate than the standard E3D-v6 setup. This allows the use of larger diameter nozzles and higher layer heights. Do not forget that Volcano is 8.5mm longer than v6 This means that you will need to adjust your Z limit switch, or your software Z offset numbers to accommodate this. Not doing so is likely to result in a fairly unpleasant Z-crash of the nozzle into the bed. Printing with Volcano is pretty easy. You just need to ensure that you've setup your slicer to use the correct nozzle diameter, and set a larger layer height. This is the block alone with shown hardware, as shown in the pictures. Does not include nozzle, heater cartridge or thermistor.
