If you have a multitool XL, it automatically cleans the nozzle every time when a tool is getting picked or parked. 

This is a remix in case you have other brushes that have a longer and thinner pin.

Original: https://www.printables.com/de/model/462473-prusa-xl-series-nozzle-scrubber-brush

I ordered a pack of 10 from China. However, these have different dimensions when it comes to the fastening pin.
The diameter here is 2.89mm and the mounting pin length is 30mm long.

Brushes: https://share.temu.com/jCM0fest77A

The original has a diameter of 3.15mm and a length of 22mm.

 

The Debris Bucked for the nozzle scrubber still fits nice.

NEXTRUDER NOZZLE FLOW COMPARISON:

I compared 3 different nozzles to determine the maximum flow rate in mm3/s. I never thought the values would be so close. Of course, more can be achieved by increasing the temperature. It would also be interesting to compare this with the Nextruder CHT nozzles. But I'm not a fan of CHT. I think they clog up more easily and are harder to clean.

I will probably only be able to say how the SiC nozzle performs in a long-term damage test in one to two years. However, I already have a Pheatus nozzle made of tungsten carbide on my Prusa mk3, which I have used a lot for the last two years, and it is still good today. And with it I can print at 10 degrees less temperature than with the Nozzle X from E3D.

The Phaetus SiC Nextruder nozzle only costs around 20€. This means that it is not only better in terms of thermal conductivity and wear resistance but also significantly cheaper. You can buy the nozzle here (affiliate link): https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DDh6ZFJ

The filament I used is from Sunlu and is called PLA Meta. It's for speed printing. Normally this is printed at 185-190c. With normal PLA you would need a higher temperature to achieve the same flow rate.
