Where to purchase P2S Cleaning Needle

The spring/handle on the end came off mine. Looking for replacement needle for my .4 nozzle? I don’t seem them on Bambu site for purchase.

-JW:

Try Amazon. “0.4mm fdm cleaning needle” You’ll find all kinds of sets or, for example, a set of 50 needles for a fiver…

Amazon, or your local accupuncturist.

PS: I have found only the “hex key” cold pull to reliably clear clogs. Even with a needle, you want to make sure the gunk is permanently removed.

Absolutely agree that the 1.5mm hex key trick is the way to go.

I recently had a ObXidian on my X1C that clogged with a piece of crystallized PPA-CF and no amount of needling or cold pulls helped.

I stuck a slug of cleaning filament in the back, heated the hot zone with a torch, and pushed the filament slug with the hex key. Nothing moved - until I poked the tip with a needle, which immediately broke up the clog and allowed the pressurized filament to push through, taking the clog with it.
