Something tells me I overtightened the nozzle

Did the same with Trianglelab Dragon. Damaged the heatbreak as well when disassembling the hotend. Now I own a 1.8Nm torque wrench…

maybe it’s hotend upgrade time then

I have a socket and extension I keep by the printer which fits the nozzle. That way I can screw it in by hand while hot, still easily feel if something is binding, and I don’t even have to burn off my fingertips.

Good idea, I’ll give that a go.

From the pic it looks like cross threading rather than over tightening. Always makes sure it threads smooth before you start tightening

It felt like it was in there fine to me, but maybe not.
