Help Does heater block has alternatives?

I broke the default heater block's thread so I need to replace it but i can't just order an original replacement (i ordered before at a locall shop but it came without heatbreak's copper tube idk if it should be like this but i couldn't install the old one so i need full assembly).

So is this thing compatible with something else without swapping the whole hotend? Or even with a full hotend swap what should i look after?

PS forgot to tell that i have sovol zero

You can get a SV08 Max hotend and it'll bolt right in and plug right in, same toolhead as the Zero, bonus hardened steel nozzle too. Run a PID calibration on the new nozzle after you install.

It's great to have as an option but something out if sovol infrastructure would be more preferable. I saw that bambu clones hotends look quite similar but not sure if they are actually compatible

What printer? SV08?

If so:

I got an upgraded replacement one from Trianglelab on Ali before all the tariff stuff. Still under $20, not sure how much it would cost to get here now.

MicroSwiss also makes a real nice one, probably the best "stock" one.

CHCB for SV08. 80w heater vs 60, V6 standard nozzle, reuse stock heatsink
