Copper & high-flow nozzles – maximum thermal conductivity
Copper nozzles offer outstanding thermal conductivity and are often coated with nickel or chrome to reduce wear and adhesion. They are ideal for high-flow and high-temp applications.
Advantages of copper nozzles
- Very high thermal conductivity → even melting
- Optimal for high flow rates
- Resistant at high temperatures
Limitations
- More expensive than standard brass
- Uncoated not as wear-resistant as hardened steel
Recommended applications
- High-flow hotends
- Materials like nylon, PC, ABS, ASA
- Large parts with high volume flow
FAQ about copper nozzles
When do I need copper nozzles?
If you want to print with high temperatures or large flow rates, e.g. with PC, nylon, or large models.
Are copper nozzles wear-resistant?
Less so when uncoated. Significantly more durable with nickel/chrome coating.
What are the advantages of coated variants?
Less adhesion, longer lifespan, clean print images with PETG & ASA.
