I was tipped off that the CR-6 Hot End is very similar to the Ender 3 Neo and that there is an all metal heat break for the CR-6. I found it on Amazon and the dimensions match the one I measured on the Ender 3 Neo so I ordered a couple to try them out. 

I did contact Slice Engineering to see if they had a solution but they currently don't have anything that matches the dimensions.

I'll be testing this in the near future and will share the results in a future video.

I have two Ender 3 Neo and I love the way they print. They are part of my mini print farm producing end caps for the Filament Friday E-Leveler tool but having them capable of higher temps without burning through PTFE would be a great upgrade.

I have a CR-6, which though much maligned, has worked great for me from day one, especially with PETG. Interested to see your experience with this heat break for PLA and PETG and other "easy to print" exotic filaments.

I appreciate the information! I have a CR-6SE and it just quit on me. I think it needs the switch replaced and I just haven't had the courage and room to swap it out. This might be a worthy upgrade too. Thanks for sharing!
