Mako enables effortless and quick nozzle changes, saving time and hassle for Bambu Lab X1 and P1 printers. It unlocks high flow performance for efficient printing and ensures reliable thermal insulation and durability. Abrasion-resistant and compatible with a wide range of filaments, Mako provides long-lasting, versatile printing capabilities for any application.
Features
Change nozzles in seconds
Prevents jamming and clogs with our Bimetallic Heat Break™ technology
Finish prints up to 65% faster*
Improve print quality without reducing speed
Print most plastics from flexible filaments like TPU to abrasive filaments like those reinforced with carbon and glass fibers
*To maximize your flow rate, a CHT Nozzle using our new FIN Nozzle Standard should be used.
Upgrade Options
Electronics Preference
Select your printer so we can pre-install the correct electronics (heater/sensor/fan) for your machine.
Nozzle Type
GammaMaster (FIN): Experience the strength of abrasion-resistant nozzles, ideal for printing with carbon and glass fiber filaments while also handling flexibles.
CHT (FIN): Maximizes flow rate by splitting incoming filament into 3 strands, heating the core of the filament while enhancing mixing & boosting mechanical strength through improved inner layer bonding.
Note: The CHT FIN nozzle is more sensitive to overtorque due to its unique internal geometry and copper alloy. Do not exceed 1.5 Nm torque when installing this nozzle. We recommend our Nozzle Torque Wrench™, which is preset to 1.5 Nm.
DiamondBack (FIN): Delivers unmatched durability and precision with a solid diamond tip, capable of printing any filament without wear or nozzle changes.
Please Note: If ordering additional nozzles, only nozzles using the FIN Standard are compatible with the Mako Hotend.
Enjoy a 30-Day Performance Promise with full refund, replacement, or repair options if our products don't meet promised results. Exclusions apply. See terms for full details.
❝Being able to quickly change these nozzles is a game changer...My experience with Slice Engineering has been fantastic...You can tell they genuinely care about helping their customers and small businesses like mine succeed. I cannot recommend Slice enough!❞

Effortless Nozzle Changes
Mako's rigid & patented roll cage design ensures durability and crash protection, enabling nozzles to be swapped in seconds. You'll never need to remove the entire hotend again just to change the nozzle size.
Optimized High Flow Performance
The flow diffuser within Mako's hot block enables a steady and consistent flow rate that guarantees a fast and efficient printing experience. By encouraging laminar flow and minimizing internal turbulence, the flow diffuser enhances extrusion efficiency and delivers high-quality prints with every use.
Superior Thermal Performance
Experience improved printing with our Bimetallic Heat Break technology, reducing heat creep and clogging while enhancing performance with higher-temperature or difficult to process filaments like Nylon (PA), polycarbonate (PC) and TPU. Mako's thermally efficient design, including its copper hot block and aluminum heat sink, provides exceptional thermal performance for smoother, more reliable prints.
FIN Nozzle Standard
The FIN's innovative nozzle geometry interlocks with the silicone boot, completely insulating the hotend and protecting it from cool air and plastic. Multiple manufacturers, including fan favorites like Bondtech, Diamondback, and Micro-Swiss are launching versions of their best nozzles using the new FIN Standard. With a 6 mm hex, nozzles using the FIN Standard can be easily swapped using our Nozzle Torque Wrench™.
Durable and Rugged Design
Mako is designed with high-quality materials like high-strength copper alloys, aircraft grade aluminum, & strain-hardened steels, allowing it to print for thousands of hours without a drop in performance. Designed with our patented “roll cage” design, the heat sink connects to the hot block with a rigid tubular structure. This unique feature protects the delicate heat break from crashes and other abuse and allows one-handed nozzle changes.

* Temperature Limitations: Although the Mako Hotend is rated up to 400°C,
Bambu Lab Printers are limited to 300-320°C by the firmware depending on the model.
What are the recommended print profiles for this hotend?
Mako uses very similar settings to the stock hotend. We've developed custom profiles to maximize the performance of our hotend which can be found in the downloads section above or in our installation instructions.
Can I use RepRap/V6 style nozzles with it?
Unfortunately, RepRap nozzles are not compatible with Mako.
Instead, the Mako Hotend includes and uses nozzles with our new FIN nozzle standard. Nozzles with FIN's innovative nozzle geometry completely interlock with silicone boots, which helps to insulate the hotend and protect it from cool air and plastic.
Will we be able to increase the maximum temperature of the hotend?
At this time, you'll not be able to increase the maximum temperature of the hotend, as that is set in the firmware of the printer. The hotend will ship with the stock heater from Bambu for your specified printer.
