New MK3 - No Thermal Paste on Heatbreak?

I had my first jam in the PTFE tube and had to disassemble to clear it up. All working fine again, but I see that according to E3D assembly guide there should be thermal paste on the Heatbreak but there was none on my MK3 Hotend.

So the Question is - should thermal paste be applied and if so why is it missing from the factory?

Thanks
Nathan

Hi Nathan,

I would apply thermal paste on reassembly and not worry about why it was not there originally.
