- Changing your hotend's nozzle is an important part of regular maintenance on your Creality Ender 5 or Ender 5 Pro 3d printer. Simply preheat your nozzle to 200c, then unscrew it. Install the new nozzle and torque to 1.5nm. I prefer to use the Th3D nozzles, as they are built with high quality standards, yet are inexpensive.

Hey Alex! I'm new to the 3d printer world, never having even seen one in person. I took the plunge and purchased an Ender 5 over the weekend (still haven't built it yet). I've been watching video after video of things to know when you're a newbie and I'm glad I came across your channel. This video was very informative and helps take away the initial intimidation I've been feeling as I start this journey in an arena I have zero experience with. So thanks for that and I look forward to watching your other videos and learning more about the 3d printing world.
Thank you! You'll love that ender 5! It's a great choice and I much prefer it over my ender 3. Setup is easy and it's a very user friendly printer! Tons of great upgrades available to print out for free on thingiverse too!
Thanks! Managed to fix it after watching this, legend!
Very helpful, thanks!
Don't use this procedure to remove your nozzle. You will bend your heat break. The heater block needs to be supported when you do this. Watch a couple of other videos and you will understand how it needs to be done.
What other videos? i just saw a crealit video do the same. how to not bend heat break?
Yeah I didn't support the block. This video should be updated to warn about that as this seems trustworthy video otherwise for a beginner trying to change nozzles. I wonder how do I know whether I broke / bent something. For now it seems that only the heat break is only ever so slightly moving in heat block when nozzle is detached. I wonder whether this has any effect on the print (I'm yet to calibrate the bed)
This just cost me new heater block. I didnt read the comments before for the first time... dont do it like this its wrong.
Thank you for the info. :) I got some tungsten nozzles now, and am curious on if the 3d printer could take any metal. I also am wanting to see of making ice balls similar to the 316 stainless steel ice balls using some filament that is said to be FDA approved.
I just changed the nozzle on my Ender 5 Plus. I heated the hot end up to 200 C and supported it with an adjustable wrench and used a 6 mm boxend to loosen the nozzle. The nozzle was so loose I actually didn't have to support the hot end. I think this is because the nozzle is installed at the factory cold. I kept the hot end at 200 C and installed a 0.2mm nozzle to play around with. I just snugged it gently with the 6 mm boxend while supporting the hot end with the other wrench. Again, I probably didn't have to from this experience, but I always will since doing things right and safely is always better than replacing parts due to carelessness!
are you able to do it without a Torque wrench and with the tools in the package?
Hey! I am new to 3D printing; my very first printer, the Ender 5 Pro should arrive at the house in 8 days. Once assembled is there anything I should be aware of or do right out of the gate? What physical mods or improvements (those that don't entail g-code manipulation) should I do first. Thanks for posting. I'll be subscribing. I'm sure to have many newbie questions - hope you don't mind.
thanks this video helped a ton.
Thank you for making this video. I read multiple articles and was still struggling. Turns out you screw it the opposite direction of everything else.
Great video g, but can it be done with wrench??
Hello. I have a new Ender 5 Pro (2 weeks). My first four prints came our nearly perfect. Now, suddenly the printer is under-extruding. The filaments of the adhesion brims are not sticking together, completed prints a brittle and nearly hollow, fills are almost non existent. In your experience is there any reason for this to suddenly happen? I have installed a new nozzle, but have achieved the same poor results. Any suggestions on where to look to trouble shoot? Filament stepper motor perhaps? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks mate!!!
Good evening. ...Hi !! How type of Wrench? 1,8 ou 2,5? thank you !
Where did you get the wrench from?
Will this work with a microswiss direct drive with a clogged nozzle?
I'm not getting any click - is it mandatory for an Ender 5 Pro? A bit worried to turn with more force.
Haha. Oh boy did my printer screw up. I was printing something and it failed, and by the time I checked it there was filament all over the nozzle. I pulled off as much as I could, but in the end decided to replace the nozzle. I pulled up this video to help me remove the nozzle. I pulled off the silicone cover... and the filament had melted to cover everything inside the printer head. I was using a blue filament and now there is just blue everywhere on and around the nozzle and heater. Any advice? Or should I just get a new printer head
Aren't you meant to support the heat block when you tighten the nozzle?
I am pretty sure you are...
Yes, it's highly recommended as you could potentially snap off the heat brake.
Nice video, can I ask what the bunch of switches is at the bottom front of your machine is please ?
Just controls some lights
My hot end started smoking after preheating and removing the silicone sock. Any ideas?
I like to cold pull existing filament before changing it
What is the torque valve?
Hello Alex, I just got my ended 5 pro and I cannot figure out how to level my bed. I don’t know how to get my nozzle to go to each corner to check and adjust height. Thank you in advance!
go to disable steppers , then you can freely move the motors by hand, test at each corner a few times manually with a piece of paper and tiny adjustments on the way, at least that works for me
Great channel, new subscriber.
Question, I only have the included wrench. How tight is too tight?
Just hand tight
Hi !! How type of Wrench? 1,8 ou 2,5? thank you !
it says it in the video descption, 1.5NM
5 min video for 5 sec solution:
"Simply preheat your nozzle to 200c, then unscrew it. Install the new nozzle and torque to 1.5nm. I prefer to use the Th3D nozzles, as they are built with high quality standards, yet are inexpensive.."
you just cost me a new fucking heater block
Like watching a cub bear humping a football.
150 hours in 2 months?
I do that in 2 weeks easily per printer. Do the hotend fix and you won't need to change nozzles for a long time.
Nozzles off Amazon are way cheaper. 40 for $10
