0.8 mm nozzles – high flow for large parts
0.8 mm nozzles are the choice when volume matters: thicker layers, wide extrusion paths, robust walls, and often significantly shorter build times. Ideal for large housings, functional prototypes, and decorative structures.
Strengths of the 0.8 mm nozzle
- Very high material throughput
- Distinct stability of the parts
- Attractive for vase mode/single-wall concepts
Recommended layer heights & usage
- Layer height: approx. 0.30–0.60 mm
- Use: large-area prints, outdoor parts, trade show decorations, prototypes
Compatibility & systems
- MK8 / V6 / Volcano
- Revo high-flow variants
- Bambu & Creality K-series with matching system nozzles
Nozzle material choice
- Brass: for standard filaments
- Hardened steel: mandatory for abrasive fillers
- Coated high-flow nozzles: optimized throughput
FAQ about 0.8 mm nozzles
What is 0.8 mm especially suitable for?
For large parts, robust wall thicknesses, and fast prototyping.
Do I need a high-flow hotend?
Not mandatory, but helpful at high speeds and thick layers.
What is a reasonable layer height?
Typically 0.30–0.60 mm – surface becomes rougher, print time decreases significantly.
Which nozzle materials are recommended?
Brass for standard, hardened steel for abrasive, coated high-flow nozzles for maximum throughput.
