Thank you for your help so if I get my hands on a um3(E) core a ruby nozzle should fit this, and this core should fit into the S5 with no issues ?

yup 🙂 But it seems you still want to change the nozzle instead of getting a whole new core.
@gr5sells hardened cores like this in the US. He knows tons of stuff about this.
Sorry I think I am confusing matters.
i am trying to fit a ruby nozzle to the S5 but the nozzle is shorter and a different thread.
see picture nozzle on the left is the one I have taken out of the core and one on the right is the ruby nozzle I want to put in.
hence my confusion have I got the wrong ruby nozzle or do I need to adapt my current heater block and core for the new nuzzle to fit.
im very confused
That is just one reason I am suggesting that you go with a new core that has all of that done. That core is not easy to mess with.
Great where do I get a new core from have you a website and a part number
thanks
So that ruby core you bought - it's meant for the Ultimaker 2. I don't know if you got the Olsson ruby or the 3dsolex everlast but I can tell in the picture that it has standard M6 thread and it's meant for the UM2 printer only.
For the UM3 or S5 you have 2 choices. You can by a CC 0.6 core from the same manufacturer that sold you your printer. Or you can buy a 3dsolex "hardcore" with a ruby nozzle. 3dsolex.com.
disclaimer: In the USA I sell 3dsolex parts (thegr5store.com)
Thank you for your help I will return the nozzle and look at the cc 0.6 core

As far as I know, all UM3(E) cores work perfectly on the S5 as well. The cores being a self contained unit have all the needed parts to work properly. I am not sure if there is a specific ruby core or not, but if so, it will solve the issue without worrying about breaking the core just trying to change the nozzle.
I have been switching between cores on both machines since I got the S5. So, it does work in my experience.
