Creatbot Mk8 Martensitic Steel – Best 3D Printer Nozzle

Description

Our martensitic nozzles are individually turned as part of the main production process, not just die casted like budget nozzles.
They are extremely precise, well machines parts that will out last other products.
And that is the reason why they cost much more than cheaper nozzles, but you will appreciate the value they bring to your 3d printing.
Whilst any nozzle can block or choke, at least with these nozzles you get precision & longer wear resistance.

The standard nozzle diameter that comes with the machine is 0.4mm
Use a 0.4 if you want precision, but as you go larger, you will be able to build the model much faster.

A 0.8 mm nozzle on average can finish the build 6 times faster than a 0.4mm!
But also remember big nozzles mean less detail in the model, so avoid them for minute things or parts that have lots of support interface where the support is being printed with the same material as the part.

0.6mm nozzles offer almost double the throughput with minimal noticeable difference in output quality.
This is why 0.6 have now become our most common nozzle size, because it aids printing Carbon Fiber really well.

You need to adjust settings in your software to ensure you print with the larger sizes properly.

Please remember that nozzles can choke due to contaminants.
A brand new nozzle may print for 5 mins & choke if you are loading anything contaminated into it.
This is not a fault in the nozzle, but rather contaminants in the filament or dirt or known additives (like carbon fibre) that are choking the nozzle.
Such issues are not related to the part warranty & do not qualify for a replacement.
Please be aware that nozzles can not be returned or exchanged, as the sheer act of even screwing it onto a head means we can’t resell it again.
Please choose carefully.
